Abstract
The Digital Elevation Model represents ground surface topography between points of known elevation. The elevation data was calculated using the altimeters and Global Positioning System (GPS) sensor used for the benefit of airborne magnetic and radiometric data on the same survey. The elevation is the height relative to the Australian Height Datum GDA94 (AUSGEOID09). The processed elevation data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. These line dataset from the Australia-Wide Airborne Geophysical Survey 2 (AWAGS2), 2007 survey were acquired in 2007 by Geoscience Australia at 75000m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance.

Lineage
This Australia-Wide Airborne Geophysical Survey 2 (AWAGS2), 2007 (P1152), elevation line data is an airborne-derived elevation data for the Australia-Wide Airborne Geophysical Survey 2 (AWAGS2), 2007. The data were acquired by Geoscience Australia under the project No. 1152 at a line spacing of 75000m and 80m terrain clearance (Milligan et al., 2009). The elevation data was calculated using the altimeters and Global Positioning System (GPS) sensor used for the benefit of airborne magnetic and radiometric data on the same survey. The elevation is the height relative to the Australian Height Datum GDA94 (AUSGEOID09). These AWAGS data have been used to level and merge all public-domain gamma-ray spectrometric and magnetic data in Australia to common datums. Details of the specifications of individual airborne surveys can be found in the Fourteenth Edition of the Index of Airborne Geophysical Surveys (Percival, 2014). This Index is also available online at http://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/79134. References: Milligan, P.R., Minty, B.R.S., Richardson, M. and Franklin, R., 2009.
