This disc contains scanned PDF copies of uranium-related reports held by Geoscience Australia from the archives of the former Australian Atomic Energy Commission. These reports date from the early 1960s to 1980. The reports are a mix of exploration reports, geological and geographical maps, proposals, feasibility studies, estimations, reserve information, drill hole data and drill cross section files. These reports pertain to various regions around South Australia, including From Embayment, Mount Painter Province, Olary/Willyama province, Gawler Craton, Eucla Basin, Lake Eyre basin, Adelaide geosyncline and Peak & Denison Ranges. Two other discs with PDF scans of drillhole logs and gamma ray probe results in South Australia also exist and may be of interest.

This disc contains scanned PDF copies of uranium-related reports held by GA from the archives of the former Australian Atomic Energy Commission. These reports date mostly from the 70s, with some which are much older (as early as 1901) but none newer than the early 80s. The reports are a mix of exploration reports, geological and geographical maps, proposals, feasibility studies, estimations, reserve information, drill hole data and drill cross section files. These reports pertain to various regions around the Northern Territory including but not limited to: Amadeus Basin, Angela & Pamela deposits, Arunta region, Daly River region, Eva and Pandanus Creek, Ngalia Basin, Tanami region, Tennant Creek region and Victoria River region. It is one of four discs containing reports concerning uranium in the Northern Territory.

This is an excel spreadsheet listing, in seconds and metres, for the centre of each 1:250,000 map sheet of Australia, the coordinate shift resulting from the following datum shifts: agd66 to gda94, agd84 to gda94 and agd66 to agd84.

Geoscience Australia (GA) embarked on the development of the National Exposure Information System (NEXIS) project in response to the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) reform commitment on Australia's ability to manage natural disasters and other emergencies. The COAG commitment was for the establishment of a nationally consistent system of data collection, research and analysis to ensure a sound knowledge base on natural disasters and disaster mitigation - (DOTARS 2002). NEXIS has also been identified as an important component for improving several projects of national interest within Geoscience Australia (GA). These include the Risk Analysis Methods Section (RAMS), Climate hazards and Risk Section (CHRS) and the Vulnerability Section (VS) which investigate natural and man-made risks and their impacts on the community. The NEXIS was developed by the Exposure Information Section (EIS), National Geographic Information Group (NGIG), formerly the Engineering, Economic and Exposure Project (E3P), Risk and Impact Analysis Group (RIAG), within Geoscience Australia. It has a key role to gather accurate and up-to-date exposure information about Australia's resident population and buildings. This information is used when calculating the risk from natural and man-made disasters in order to inform policy and operational decision makers of the impact on Australian communities. In order to understand the effects a natural or man-made disaster could have on a community we need to know as much as we can about the people and buildings that occupy that area. This includes information about: People: how many people will be affected and where they live Buildings: the type of construction materials used, the number of storeys, and age all contribute to how a building withstands damage Cost : how much will it cost to rebuild a house or replace contents if damaged This information is used to not only investigate physical impacts of a disaster, but also forms base information that is needed to help inform the socio-economic impacts, such as loss to the business community when impacted by severe cyclonic wind storms. The National Exposure Information System (NEXIS) aims to maintain building level detail for all residential, commercial and industrial building in Australia. NEXIS information is available at Local Government Are (LGA) & Statistical Local Area (SLA)

Community risk within the local government authority is investigated for: tropical cyclones and storm tide, east coast lows, thunderstorms, tropical cyclones and severe wind, flood, earthquake, landslide, heat wave and bushfire. Magnitude/returne period scenarios are developed and impact on communities investigated.
