Exploring for the Future – Groundwater Level Data Release: Southern Stuart Corridor Project, Northern Territory
This report presents groundwater levels results from the Southern Stuart Corridor project conducted as part of Exploring for the Future (EFTF), an eight year, $225 million Australian Government-funded geoscience data and information acquisition program focused on better understanding the potential mineral, energy and groundwater resources across Australia.
The Southern Stuart Corridor project is a collaborative study between Geoscience Australia the Northern Territory Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and Power and Water Corporation (PWC) which incorporates study areas between Alice Springs and Tennant Creek in south-central NT. Groundwater level data were collected from newly drilled bores in the Western Davenport and Alice Springs areas. This report records the release of groundwater level data gathered by Geoscience Australia and DENR from monitoring bores in the Southern Stuart Corridor project area during the EFTF project.
The full report includes:
• A full description of how water levels in metres relative to Australian Height Datum (m AHD; where zero m AHD is an approximation of mean sea level) were calculated from manual dips and electronic data loggers for this project.
• A series of tables in Appendix A containing sufficient information for each bore and datalogger file to reproduce the water levels reported in Appendix B and Appendix C.
• A series of hydrographs in Appendix B showing how water levels (in m AHD) interpreted from manual dips and datalogger files varied during the EFTF project.
• A series of electronic files in Appendix C that include
- Data files from dataloggers in CSV file format that can be used with the information contained in this data release to regenerate the water levels shown on hydrographs in Appendix A.
- Data files in CSV file format reporting the final water levels used to generate the hydrographs in Appendix B.
