The twelfth edition of the Airborne Geophysical Survey Index presents a summary of the essential specifications of over 1080 surveys held in the National Airborne Geophysical Database. Include Index Maps at 1:10 million scale for magnetic, radiometric and elevation survey coverage of Australia as at 31 August 2011.

This dataset reflects the boundaries of claimant and nonclaimant native title applications that have been determined in part or in full, together with attribution about that determination. This dataset is stored nationally. The National Native Title Register (s192, Native Title Act, Commonwealth), is a register containing information about each determination of native title by the Federal or High Court or by a recognized State or Territory body. Determinations are categorized by both process and outcome. Process will be by consent, litigation or unopposed. Outcome will be that native title will have been found to exist in full or part, or been extinguished. Those determinations subject to appeal are also noted. Geospatial data portraying native title information produced by the National Native Title Tribunal may not be on-sold. Value added products using this data must acknowledge the National Native Title Tribunal as the data source and include the NNTT disclaimer.

This dataset was created by CSIRO and provides a spatial coverage of field estimates of recharge conducted across Australia as identified by the review: Crosbie, R. S., Jolly, I. D., Leaney, F. W., Petheram, C., and Wohling, D.: Review of Australian groundwater recharge studies, CSIRO Water for a Healthy Country National Research Flagship, Canberra, 79 pp., 2010a http://www.clw.csiro.au/publications/waterforahealthycountry/2010/wfhc-review-Australian-recharge.pdf A more detailed description of the data is provided in: Crosbie, R. S., I. D. Jolly, F. W. Leaney, and C. Petheram (2010), Can the dataset of field based recharge estimates in Australia be used to predict recharge in data-poor areas?, Hydrol. Earth Syst. Sc., 14(10), 2023-2038. http://www.hydrol-earth-syst-sci.net/14/2023/2010/hess-14-2023-2010.pdf

Note: A more recent version of this product is available. This dataset contains the high voltage electricity transmission lines that make up the electricity transmission network in Australia. For government use only. Access through negotiation with Geoscience Australia

These datasets are intended to be used with the National Geoscience Datasets as reference graticules with coding of latitude and longitudinal positions.

GEODATA TOPO 5M 2004 is a seamless mapping data set at 1:5,000,000 scale which covers all of Australia. The data is particularly suited to national, state-wide and larger regional applications. This product is available in geo-referenced Portable Data Format (PDF) and provides a modern digital approach to the delivery and use of maps. PDF is a widely used format created by Adobe Systems which uses software to view the information. Topographic geoMAP 5 million PDF maps are available free online via Geoscience Australia`s Interactive Maps service.

The chloride deposition dataset is created by taking observational chloride in rainfall data from 291 sites across Australia and interpolating it to form a gridded data set at a resolution of 0.05° x 0.05° for the region of Australia. This dataset (and the derivative 95% confidence interval for upper and lower datasets) were created by CSIRO.

Data was collected by selecting the highest point(s) in each geographical area of 30 minutes of latitude by 30 minutes of longitude. Elevations are recorded in feet and metres (always rounded up). Information is derived from 1:1 Million scale World Aeronautical Charts. Note: This is not regularly gridded data.

AMSIS is a web based interactive mapping and decision support system that improves access to integrated government and non-government information in the Australian Marine Jurisdiction. AMSIS contains over 80 layers of information including maritime boundaries, bathymetry, physical and environmental information, legal interests, fisheries and shipping that has been sourced from Geoscience Australia, other Australian government agencies and some industry sources. AMSIS also contains the offshore mineral locations data that was used to create the Offshore Minerals Map. AMSIS has been developed using standards to support interoperability enabling integration with the National Oceans Portal and other on-line initiatives. Geoscience Australia is working with other agencies and organisations to add additional information. Information in this application should not be relied upon as the sole source of information for commercial and operational decisions. AMSIS should not be used for navigational purposes.

Switched off at the request of Karen Fearn. Gallery no longer maintained or supported. This satellite image gallery shows the expansion of Australia's major towns and cities in every State and Territory since the 1980's. Residential expansion, new infrastructure (such as freeways), and changes in environmental features including reservoirs and dams can all be seen through comparison 'swipe' imagery.
