P1291A North East Canning Airborne Gravity Survey 2017

<div>An airborne gravity survey was conducted over the North East Canning area in the Kimberley region of Western Australia as a part of the Tanami-NE Canning Western Australia Airborne Gravity Survey 2017. The survey was part of a collaborative research project between Geoscience Australia (GA) and the Geological Survey of Western Australia. Gravity data was collected at 5 km wavelength resolution with the purpose to help characterise key undercover geological elements of the region. The survey was conducted by Thomson Aviation Pty Ltd with a GT-2A gravimeter and managed by Geoscience Australia. A total of 23,953.65 line km of data were acquired over an area of 53,346 km².</div><div><strong>Survey details</strong></div><div>Survey Name: Tanami North East Canning Airborne gravity survey</div><div>State/Territory: Western Australia (WA)</div><div>Datasets Acquired: Airborne gravity</div><div> Geoscience Australia Project Number: P1291A</div><div> Acquisition Start Date: 17 August 2017</div><div> Acquisition End Date: 15 November 2017</div><div> Flight line spacing: 2.5 km</div><div> Flight line direction: 180deg / NS</div><div> Tie line spacing: 25km</div><div> Tie line direction: 270 deg / EW</div><div>Total line kilometers: 23,953.65</div><div> Nominal terrain clearance (above ground level): 710 m</div><div> Aircraft model: GippsAero GA-8 Airvan</div><div>Data Acquisition: Thomson Aviation Pty Ltd</div><div> Project Management: Geoscience Australia</div><div> Quality Control: CMG Operations Pty Ltd and Geoscience Australia</div><div> Dataset Ownership: GSWA and Geoscience Australia</div><div><br></div><div><strong>Files included in this download </strong></div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>This data package release contains the final survey deliverables received from the contractor Thomson Aviation, with an initial QC by CMG Operations Pty Ltd, then peer reviewed by Dr Jack McCubbine (Geoscience Australia).</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>The horizontal datum and projection for all the data are GDA94 and MGA51, respectively.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><strong>1.</strong> <strong><em>Point-located Data / line data</em></strong></div><div>ASCII column XYZ and ASEG-GDF2 format with accompanying description and definition files. </div><div><br></div><div> <strong><em>2.Grids</em></strong> –</div><div> Datum:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;GDA94</div><div>Projection:&nbsp;&nbsp;MGA51</div><div>Grid cell size:&nbsp;500m</div><div>Format: ERMapper (.ers)</div><div>Gravity datum: AAGD07. </div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>There are 24 gridded data supplied in ERMapper (.ers) format.

Purpose

High-resolution gravity on regional/district scales is an important component of mineral and energy integrated pre-competitive approach to data collection and information to support new and ongoing industry exploration investment in Australia's resources. Such data is also invaluable for vertical positioning accuracy with industry and government agencies requiring vertical height surfaces to within 10 cm for advanced (often autonomous) operations, productivity efficiency, and safety.
