This map is part of a series which comprises 50 maps which covers the whole of Australia at a scale of 1:1 000 000 (1cm on a map represents 10km on the ground). Each standard map covers an area of 6 degrees longitude by 4 degrees latitude or about 590 kilometres east to west and about 440 kilometres from north to south. These maps depict natural and constructed features including transport infrastructure (roads, railway airports), hydrography, contours, hypsometric and bathymetric layers, localities and some administrative boundaries, making this a useful general reference map.

The geology of Cape Denison is presented with a brief summary of the geology with reference to the historical aspects of the region. The poster is being released to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition lead by Douglas Mawson in 1911-1914.

The International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS; www.iugs.org/) is the scientific sponsor of the International Geological Congress (IGC), which is generally held every four years and has a proud 140 year tradition. The main purpose of the IGC is to encourage the advancement of applied and fundamental research in the Earth Sciences worldwide. Recent IGCs have attracted 5,000-7,000 delegates from over a hundred countries. Australia is hosting the 34th IGC on behalf of the Oceania region in Brisbane, 2-10 August 2012 (www.34igc.org). This large and prestigious event, which is also being referred to as AUSTRALIA 2012, offers the geoscience community of our region a wonderful opportunity for international networking and collaboration, and enhanced recognition of our geology and accomplishments. AUSTRALIA 2012 will be an important forum for interdisciplinary interactions in all fields of geoscientific endeavour.

The map covers an area of 0.850 degrees longitude by 0.883 degrees latitude or about 76 kilometres from east to west and about 96 kilometres from north to south. At this scale 1cm on the map represents 1km on the ground. This map contains natural and constructed features including road and rail infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, contours (interval 20m), localities and administrative boundaries, such as national parks, and nature reserves. The reverse side of the map depicts the same area using an orthophoto mosaic.
