This data is a subset of the lastest release of PINEENA GW data - v9.3 (http://waterinfo.nsw.gov.au/pinneena/gw.shtml) with the most recenlty available data added) This subset includes: - Standing Water Levels (SWL) from unconfined intake areas (non artesian) - plots of the above data - locations of some of the bores (added by Geoscience Australia) Data is continuous (daily) and is measured in metres from a reference point. The reference point is unknown

Geoscience Australia defines a borehole as the generalized term for any narrow shaft drilled in the ground, either vertically or horizontally, and would include Mineral Drillholes, Petroleum Wells and Water Bores along with a variety of others types, but does not include Costean, Trench or Pit. For the purpose of a borehole as defined by GeoSciML Borehole 3.0, the dataset has been restricted to onshore and offshore Australian boreholes, and bores that have the potential to support geological investigations and assessment of a variety of resources.

Australian Petroleum Blocks (2014) - Aligned with the current Australian Maritime Boundary Dataset (AMB2014) The digital realisation of Australia's Graticular Framework as set out under the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006. ESRI Geodatabase. The dataset was created internally by Geoscience Australia using the framework described in Section 33 of the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006 (OPGGS Act) and previous Acts. The international, scheduled areas and coastal waters used in this dataset are those found in the current Australian Maritime Boundary Dataset (AMB2014). The dataset is comprised of both polygons and points created to very high precision, accurate to within millimetres. The blocks have been cut by Australia's international boundaries, the scheduled areas and the coastal waters. Each block is assigned a polygon, including partial blocks. All blocks are titled with their block ID, and a list of vertices that make up the blocks. Each vertex of the dataset is also replicated as a discrete point in the points dataset. The design of the dataset allows for the exact location of every vertex to be know to millimetre precision. The corner coordinates of blocks are now defined to a high precision, and can be found by querying the appropriate point. Existing production licences AC/P17, AC/RL4, and AC/RL5 are included in the dataset. The blocks are attributed with fields containing information on: Block ID Parent 1 Million Mapsheet Offshore Area Epoch of the boundaries used to cut the data - AMB2014 Datum Origin of the mapsheet in AGD66 The position of all vertices in the block The number of vertices in the block The area of the block in acres The area of the block in hectares The calculation used to find the area of the blocks is estimated to be precise to better than 1%. This is considered to be sufficient as under the permit and licensing arrangements in the OPGGS Act, the area of a block has no relevance. Therefore the area figure is provided solely for reference.

The Dynamic Land Cover Dataset Version 2 is a suite of land cover information products from Geoscience Australia (GA). These information products deliver International Standards Organisation (ISO) compliant land cover maps across the Australian landmass. The datasets provide a consistent series of maps that show how Australian land cover is changing over time. The current version consists of 14 maps each based on 2 years of MODIS data. The 14 maps cover the period from January 2001 - December 2015. The Dynamic Land Cover Dataset uses a standard land cover classification to show the change in behaviour of land cover across Australia. The DLCD includes data for every 250m by 250m area on the ground, for the period 2001 to 2015. The DLDC provides a basis for reporting on change and trends in vegetation cover and extent. Information about land cover dynamics is essential to understanding and addressing a range of national challenges such as drought, salinity, water availability and ecosystem health. The current release of the second version DLCDv2.1 presents land cover information for every 250m by 250m area of the country for each of the two year intervals listed in the table below. It consists of maps based on 2 years of MODIS EVI time-series data. The date ranges for each of the map series are: • January 2001-December 2002 • January 2002-December 2003 • January 2003-December 2004 • January 2004-December 2005 • January 2005-December 2006 • January 2006-December 2007 • January 2007-December 2008 • January 2008-December 2009 • January 2009-December 2010 • January 2010-December 2011 • January 2011-December 2012 • January 2012-December 2013 • January 2013-December 2014 • January 2014-December 2015 DLCD can be used as an input for a wide range of environmental modelling applications, including: • Climate • Wind and water erosion risk • Evapotranspiration • Carbon dynamics • Land surface processes In conjunction with other data sources, the DLCD can be used to identify emerging patterns of land cover change and provide a spatial and historical context within which to interpret change. The land cover classification scheme used conforms to the 2007 International Standards Organisation (ISO) land cover standard (19144-2). The dataset shows Australian land covers clustered into 22 classes. These reflect the structural character of vegetation, ranging from cultivated and managed land covers (crops and pastures) to natural land covers such as trees and grasslands.
