Abstract
The Onshore Seismic Data Collection includes regional crustal scale seismic datasets across the Australian Continent collected by Geoscience Australia (GA) and its predecessors, the Bureau of Mineral Resources (BMR) and Australian Geological Survey Organisation (AGSO) in collaboration with the State and Territory Geological Surveys, Australian National Seismic Imaging Resource (ANSIR) ( National Research Facility for Earth Sounding), AuScope Earth Imaging (under the Australian Government's National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy), Universities and other industry and research partners. The collection preserves raw and processed seismic data. The GIS dataset of Onshore Seismic Surveys from 1976 to present (updated May 2019) shows locations of seismic recording stations (the original ecat <a href="https://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/ga/100802">100802</a>). It is generated from a database containing coordinates of all Geoscience Australia's seismic traverses. This Shape file enables users to display seismic lines on a map and contains links to data packages available for free download. < b>Value: </b>Data used to expand the geoscientific understanding of the earth's crustal structure and provide new insights into Australia's onshore energy and mineral potential. This data can be used for the assessment of resource potential. <b>Scope: </b>Primarily targeted regional crustal scale cross-sections (2D) for research purposes. <b> To view the seismic dataset by state use the following URL: </b> https://www.ga.gov.au/about/projects/resources/seismic
