The 2017 Olympic Domain Airborne Electro-Magnetic (AEM) Survey was conducted by Geoscience Australia as part of a collaborative project between the Commonwealth of Australia (Geoscience Australia) and its partner the State of South Australia (Department of State Development: Geological Survey of South Australia). Geoscience Australia contracted SkyTEM Australia Pty Ltd to acquire heliborne AEM data over the Olympic Domain in South Australia using their proprietary 312M SkyTEM Interleaved Low Moment and High Moment system trading as "SkyTEMfast". The raw data were processed using SkyTEM Aps Denmark, SkyTEM Australia Pty Ltd’s proprietary software. The survey area consists of 3073.4 line km of time-domain AEM geophysical data acquired in a single survey block located on the 1:250000 map sheets, SH53-12 (Andamooka) and SH53-16 (Torrens) approximately 420 kilometres north-north west of the city of Adelaide, SA. The traverse lines were flown in an East-West orientation with line spacing of 1500 and 3000m. Recent AusLAMP (Australian Lithospheric Architecture Magnetotelluric Project) results and modelling across the Gawler Craton have revealed zones of enhanced crustal conductivity at depths of 15-40km in the mid to lower crust along the eastern margin of the craton. These zones coincide with the highly prospective Olympic Domain IOCG belt and may indicate the presence of a mantle plumbing system that contributed to the formation of the mineral systems and deposits in this belt. A key example of this enhanced crustal conductivity exists in the Prominent Hill-Carrapateena-Punt Hill area within the central Olympic domain. The AEM flight line locations were designed to cover these AusLAMP identified deep crustal conductive zone and investigate possible upward continuation of the deep crustal anomaly through the cover sequence. The data have been inverted with the AarhusInv Program using the Aarhus Workbench LCI algorithm. The data release package includes: 1) Point-located Low Moment & High Moment dB/dt electromagnetic data with associated position, altimeter, orientation, and derived ground elevation data. These data are in ASCII column format with associated ASEG-GDF2 header files. 2) Point-located conductivity data derived from the inversion of the observed data with the AarhusInv Program using the Aarhus Workbench LCI algorithm. 3) Gridded data (600m cell size) in ER Mapper® binary raster grid format with associated header files for the conductivity depth slices derived from the Aarhus Workbench LCI data, with and without depth of investigation (DOI) masking. 4) Gridded magnetics and elevation data in ER Mapper® binary raster grid format with associated header files. 5) Graphical multiplots, in PNG format, for each flight line showing Aarhus Workbench LCI model sections (with DOI mask line) with profiles of the Low & High moment Z component dB/dt data and the model fit residual. 6) Contractor supplied Operations Report. 7) ESRI shapefiles of the flight lines. 8) Metadata and License files.

The product consists of 5,291 line kilometres of time-domain airborne electromagnetic (AEM) geophysical data acquired in the Fitzroy River Catchment of the West Kimberley region, the electrical conductivity models derived from the dataset, and the survey operations and processing report. The data were acquired using the heliborne SkyTEM-312 AEM system. A locality diagram for the survey is shown below. The survey was funded by the Government of Western Australia, as part of its Water for Food Initiative, through the Department of Water (WA DoW). The survey was managed by Geoscience Australia as part of a national collaborative framework project agreement with WA DoW. The aim of the survey was to map the electrical properties of the top 200-300 metres of the sub-surface geology and hydrogeology within the study area. Geoscience Australia contracted SkyTEM Australia Pty Ltd to acquire the AEM data using the SkyTEM-312 system in September and October 2015. The data were also processed by SkyTEM Australia Pty Ltd using its in-house processing and inversion techniques. The Kimberley Region in north-west Australia is a priority area for the development of irrigated agriculture. The hydrogeology of the area is poorly understood, hence the primary aim of the AEM survey was to provide geophysical data in support of groundwater investigations. Specific objectives of the AEM survey included mapping the extent of regional Canning Basin aquifers to aid assessment of groundwater resources and sustainable yield estimates for agricultural development; provide AEM data in transects to underpin studies of surface-groundwater interactions (groundwater discharge and recharge potential) associated with the major rivers, and permanent river pools in particular; detect and assess potential groundwater salinity hazards within proposed irrigation areas; and map the seawater intrusion (SWI) interface. Very specific mapping objectives were developed for each sub-area, and the survey was designed with these detailed local objectives in mind. The survey design reflects two scales of investigation: 1. Two areas (Knowsley-Mowanjum and GoGo-Fitzroy Crossing) with higher density flight line spacing (400 m) in areas with advanced plans for development of irrigated agriculture; 2. Irregular grid of regional transects and lines acquired along river tracts reflecting the reconnaissance nature of regional investigations in a frontier hydrogeological area. Much of the area lies underneath cover of sedimentary basins and is a poorly-understood element of Australia¿s geology. The Fitzroy Trough is also host to a number of mineral systems including diamonds and base metal mineralisation, as well as shale gas resources. The survey data should assist with understanding of the basin geology and neotectonics, while lamproite pipes have also been intersected in a number of flight lines. The survey data will also add to the knowledge of the thickness and character of alluvium and regolith cover and will inform future geological mapping in the region. The data will be available from Geoscience Australia¿s web site free of charge. The data release package includes: 1. Point-located electromagnetic line data with associated position, height, orientation, transmitter current, and derived ground elevation data. These data are in ASCII column format with associated ASEG-GDF2 header files. All regular survey, repeat lines and high altitude lines are included in the dataset. The dataset is split into Parts 1 and 2 based on the differences in the receiver gate times for each part. 2. Point-located magnetic line data with associated position, height, orientation, and derived ground elevation data. These data are in ASCII column format with associated ASEG-GDF2 header files. All regular survey, repeat lines and high altitude lines are included in the dataset. 3. Point-located line data for conductivity estimates derived by SkyTEM Australia Pty Ltd using its Automated Laterally Constrained Inversion (aLCI) algorithm with associated position, height, orientation, and derived ground elevation data. Data include the conductivity estimate for each of the 30 inversion model layers, the layer elevation, estimated depth of investigation, and data fit residuals. These data are in ASCII column format with associated ASEG-GDF2 header files. All regular survey and repeat lines are included in the dataset. 4. Gridded data for the derived ground elevations, total magnetic intensity, and the conductivity of the 30 aLCI inversion model layers. The grids are in ER Mapper® binary raster grid format with associated header files. The grids have a cell size of 100 m. For the aLCI inversion layer conductivity grids, there are versions that are masked (set to undefined) below the estimated depth of investigation and unmasked. 5. Graphical multiplots and spatial images derived from the aLCI inversion. The multiplots show the derived aLCI conductivity depth sections and selected data panels for each individual flight line in Portable Network Graphics (PNG) and Portable Document Format (PDF) formats. The spatial images show colour images of the conductivity for each aLCI model layer and are in PNG, PDF and geo-located Tagged Image Format (TIF) files suitable for use in MAPINFO. 6. The survey Operations and Processing Report, which provides the details of the AEM system, logistics, data acquisition, data processing and the aLCI inversion parameters. 7. ESRI shapefiles and KML files of flight lines.
