How Landsat 7 images are used, transmitted and received; and how Geoscience Australia is involved.

The video explains the challenges faced when managing vast quantities of satellite data, for the benefit of humankind, to address a range of environmental, social and agricultural issues. The video introduces the architecture of the Australian Geoscience Data Cube as a key tool for unlocking Earth observation satellite data, to better manage and store vast amounts of data. The Data Cube has already been used to for understanding water observations from Space and its related application for better flood management. The video also provides a case study of developing a satellite data management infrastructure for Kenya. This video was used to launch Australia¿s tenure as the Chair of the Committee of Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS) at the 2015 Plenary CEOS meeting held in Kyoto, Japan in November 2015.

These products form part of the exhibition celebrating GA's involvement in the ACT and are produced as part of the ACT centenary.

Full Version - shows orthographic and fly-through sequence for each of 5 scenarios with a combined max. inundation outline fly-through at end. Description. - Tropical Cyclone Alby passed close to the southwest corner of West Australia on April 4th 1978. Large waves and a storm surge generated by the northerly winds caused substantial coastal erosion along the Lower West coast particularly in the Geographe Bay area. Low-lying areas at Bunbury and Busselton were flooded, forcing the evacuation of many homes including the Bunbury Nursing Home. An approximate 1.1 m storm surge at Busselton caused the tide to peak at 2.5 m about 1 m above the highest astronomical tide. The Busselton Jetty was severely damaged. At Fremantle the surge was about 0.6 m causing a high tide of 1.8 m, about 0.5 m above the highest astronomical tide. [From BOM - http://www.bom.gov.au/weather/wa/cyclone/about/perth/alby.shtml - Retrieved 21/01/2010] This movie displays the results of a number of simulated storm surge events caused by an equivalent storm to Tropical Cyclone Alby on the current built terrain of Mandurah, and projected 2100 coastline with 0.5, 0.8 and 1.1m rises in sea level. Scenario A TC Alby equivalent at current sea level Scenario B Worst case TC Alby equivalent with current sea level Scenario C Worst case TC Alby equivalent in 2100 with 0.5m sea level rise Scenario D Worst case TC Alby equivalent in 2100 with 0.8m sea level rise Scenario E Worst case TC Alby equivalent in 2100 with 1.1m sea level rise

This is a short and informative 3.3 minute movie for the Engineering, Economics and Exposure Project - NEXIS Development for DCCEE - late 2010. It is a promotional movie that demonstrates NEXIS capabilities, and explains how NEXIS will be benefitial to the NEXIS stakeholder. This movie may also go onto the web, where it's purpose is to convince the public that NEXIS is a worthwhile investment in Australia's future.

Aim: Use a map such as the seafloor and land topography of Australia and surrounding region (GeoCat 64057 MP 03/2457.44) as a base to create an interactive animation which illustrates the geological formation of: - Heard Island an active sub-marine volcano; and - The Warrumbungle volcano an inactive volcano formed by hot spot volcanism.

A movie (~10 mins) showing the scientific discovery of the submerged reefs of the Gulf of Carpentaria. It describes the coral reef survival, growth and death; the change in sea level, global climate and ocean currents.

One in a series of 8 small movies for the 2006 Acreag Release CD Product

11-5413 The Probabilistic Volcanic Ash - Hazard Map movie describes how you construct a probabilistic hazard map for volcanic ash, using an example scenario from GA's volcanic ash modelling work in West Java, Indonesia. The target audience is other govt. agencies both national and international, and the general public. The 3.3 minute movie uses 3D Max animations and 2D affects, has narration and production music. The narration will also be done in Bahasa Indonesian, at a later date.

This is a short film created to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Geoscience Australia. It highlights GA's memorable moments and achievements from 2001-2011. The film was first released at the 2011 Geoscience Australia AGM. The film is available in a number of digital formats and has a running time of 4:06.
