This record has been created for Sales to be able to invoice data requests that occur from downloading of data from the National Elevation Data Framework (NEDF) Web Portal. The Portal was set up in 2010 and data more than 400MB needs to be downloaded from the holding pen on the NEDF server and copied onto media and sent to the requester. Each data request will come with metadata and the appropriate data licence.

Map is an image of the seafloor and land topograhpy with the seafloor data between latitudes 64 degrees North and 72 degrees South by Smith and Sandwell (1997) with more information from W.H.F Smith and D.T. Sandwell, Global Seafloor Topography from Satellite Altimetry and Ship Depth Soundings, Science, v.277, p. 1956-1962, 26 September 1997. This has been combined with land topography from the Global Land One-km Base Elevation (GLOBE) Project. This image has been modified in ER Mapper to increase the depth perception by chaning the sun angle.

These datasets cover approximately 3500 sq km in the central sector of the Gladstone Regional Council and are part of the 2009 Capricorn Coast LiDAR capture project. This project, undertaken by Fugro Spatial Solutions Pty Ltd on behalf of the Queensland Government captured highly accurate elevation data using LiDAR technology. Available dataset formats (in 2 kilometre tiles) are: - Classified las (LiDAR Data Exchange Format where strikes are classified as ground, non-ground or building) - 1 metre Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in ASCII xyz - 1 metre Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in ESRI ASCII grid - 0.25 metre contours in ESRI Shape

This report describes products, outputs and outcomes of the three-dimensional (3D) visualisation component of the Great Artesian Basin Water Resource Assessment (the Assessment). This report specifically encompasses the following topics associated with the 3D visualisation component: - the requirements and potential benefits - the effective datasets - methodology used in content creation - the output datasets - discussions regarding outcomes, limitations and future directions. The Assessment is designed to assist water managers in the Great Artesian Basin (GAB) to meet National Water Initiative commitments. The key datasets of the 3D visualisation component include contact surfaces between major aquifers and aquitards with coverage of significant portions of the GAB, well lithostratigraphic and wire-line data and hydrogeochemistry produced by State and National Agencies. These datasets are manipulated within GOCAD® to develop the 3D visualisation component and communication products for use by end users to assist visualisation and conceptualisation of the GAB. While many options have been investigated for distribution of these 3D products, 2D screen captures and content delivery via the Geoscience Australia (GA) World Wind 3D data viewer will be the most efficient and effective products.

A test site for airborne gravity (AG) systems has been established at Kauring, approximately 100 km east of Perth, Western Australia. The site was chosen using a range of criteria that included being within 200 km of Jandakot Airport in Perth where most of the airborne systems would be based at one time or another when operating in Australia, being free of low level flight restrictions, having minimal human infrastructure in the central 20 by 20 km area, and the presence of gentle to rolling terrain rather than deeply incised topography or an extensive flat plain with very low relief. In anticipation of catering for airborne gravity gradiometer (AGG) systems, the site was required to have a gravity gradient feature with clear response in the wavelength range of 100 m to 2 km in a 5 by 5 km core region. In addition to catering for AGG systems, the site may also be used in the future to demonstrate and compare various airborne magnetic systems (TMI, vector, and gradient tensor systems) and digital terrain mapping systems.

<p>The GEODATA 9 Second Digital Elevation Model (DEM-9S) Version 3 is a grid of ground level elevation points covering the whole of Australia with a grid spacing of 9 seconds in longitude and latitude (approximately 250 metres) in the GDA94 coordinate system. <p>Version 3 of the DEM-9S was calculated by Version 5.2.2 of the ANUDEM procedure (Hutchinson 2007) from comprehensively revised and augmented national GEODATA-250K topographic source data (AUSLIG 1992, Geoscience Australia 2003, Geoscience Australia 2006) using Version 5.2.2 of the ANUDEM elevation gridding procedure. The source data included revised versions of GEODATA-250K elevation points, streamlines, cliff lines and waterbodies, trigonometric points from the National Geodetic Database and additional elevation and sink point data digitised by the Fenner School from 1:100K source material. Version 5.2.2 of the ANUDEM procedure incorporates major upgrades to the modelling of streamlines, lakes, cliff lines and the coastline. <p>GEODATA 9 Second Flow Direction Grid (D8-9S) has been released for the first time with Version 3. The D8-9S is a corresponding grid describing the principal directions of surface drainage across the whole of Australia. This grid was calculated by the ANUDEM procedure as it derived the DEM-9S. It incorporates the data streamline structure and describes the drainage structure continent-wide. It can be used to delineate streamlines and associated catchment boundaries for the DEM-9S. This is particularly useful in low relief areas where drainage structure is not reliably defined by the DEM-9S elevations alone. <p>The product can be used for applications requiring accurate representation of absolute elevation values. The elevation of source data high points (hills or mountains) is well represented in Version 3. The 1:250,000 source scale of the elevation grid makes the product useful for national, State-wide and regional applications. <p>For more detailed information please refer to the User Guide below. <p>Product Information <p>Coverage: Australia, excluding external territories <p>Currency: 2008 <p>Coordinates: Geographical <p>Datum: Horizontal: GDA94; Vertical: AHD71 <p>Available Formats: GeoTIFF

The Swan Coast hydrologically enforced digital elevation model (HDEM) was produced in 2010 as part of the Urban DEM project managed by the CRC for Spatial Information and Geoscience Australia. The HDEM was created from a combination of the following surveys; Perth, Peel, Harvey, Bunbury and Busselton LiDAR The Swan Coast 2008 LiDAR data was captured over the Swan Coast region during February, 2008. The data was acquired by AAMHatch (now AAMGroup) and Fugro Spatial Solutions through a number of separate missions as part of the larger Swan Coast LiDAR Survey that covers the regions of Perth, Peel, Harvey, Bunbury and Busselton. The project was funded by Department of Water, WA for the purposes of coastal inundation modelling and a range of local and regional planning. The data are made available under licence for use by Commonwealth, State and Local Government. The HDEM was produced by SKM using the ANUDEM program. The HDEM ensures that primary stream/channel flow, and water flow across the land surface are accurately represented. The hydrologically enforced HDEM depicts water bodies as being flat, and water courses depict consistent downward flow of water unimpeded by vegetation or man-made structures such as bridges and major culverts. Drainage enforcement was limited to watercourse lines depicted on 1:25,000 topographic mapping and to the intersection of the water course layer and transport layer. For the purposes of inundation modelling, inundation contours have been developed using the HDEM. The inundation extents were extracted at 0.2m intervals below 2m AHD and 1m intervals up to 10m. The inundation contours are available as polylines. The inundation contours have also been flagged as to whether the area connects directly to the sea. he data was captured with point density of 1 point per square metre and overall vertical accuracy has been confirmed at <15cm (68% confidence). The data are available as a number of products including mass point files (ASCII, LAS) and ESRI GRID files with 1m grid spacing.
