Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The data are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. This GSNSW Exploration NSW Area Y Murray Riverina magnetic grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.00098 degrees (approximately 100m). The units are in nanoTesla (or nT). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2003 by the NSW Government, and consisted of 160619 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance.

This GSQ Southern Bowen Basin Qld magnetic vd1 grid geodetic is a first vertical derivative of the Total Magnetic Intensity grid for the Southern Bowen Basin, Qld, 2004. This grid has a cell size of 0.001 degrees (approximately 106m). The grid has units of nanoTesla per km (or nT/km). The data used to produce the TMI grid was acquired in 2004 by the QLD Government, and consisted of 74554 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance. A Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) process was applied to the original grid to calculate the first vertical derivative grid.
