Abstract

<div>The dataset contained in this package and release consists of GA’s Layered-Earth-Inversion (GALEI, Brodie, 2016) conductivity-depth estimates from the AEM data, acquired over several areas of Western Australia, converted into SEG-Y format. The SEG-Y data standard was proposed by the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) standards committee (see Norris & Faichney 2002). Previously, the AEM data has been released as point located line data in conventional ascii format and is accessible through several of the following associated eCat records (<a href="https://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/ga/146345">146345</a>, <a href="https://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/ga/146042">146042</a>, <a href="https://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/ga/144621">144621</a>, <a href="https://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/ga/145265">145265</a> and <a href="https://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/ga/147688">147688</a>). This SEG-Y data release is expected to benefit users who require the AEM modelled sections in SEG-Y format to assist in their interpretations, investigations and discovery of potential mineral, energy, and groundwater resources within Australia. </div>

Purpose

The AEM surveys provide precompetitive information used to inform decisions made by governments, community, and industry on the sustainable development of Australia's mineral, energy, and groundwater resources. The current data release package contains point located line conductivity data for each survey location, derived from GALEI algorithm (released previously) that has been converted to SEG-Y format (suitable for display mostly in seismic data processing software).
