Abstract
This Record documents the efforts of the Geological Survey of Victoria (GSV) and Geoscience Australia (GA) in compiling a geochronology (age) compilation for Victoria, describing both the dataset itself and the process by which it is incorporated into the continental-scale Isotopic Atlas of Australia. The Isotopic Atlas draws together age and isotopic data from across the country and provides visualisations and tools to enable non-experts to extract maximum value from these datasets. Data is added to the Isotopic Atlas in a staged approach with priorities determined by GA- and partner-driven focus regions and research questions. This dataset, which was primarily compiled by GSV and has been supplemented with data compiled by GA during the 2013–2017 Stavely Project, is a foundation for the second phase of the Exploring for the Future initiative over 2020–2024, particularly the Darling-Curnamona-Delamerian Project. The most current data can be accessed and downloaded from GA’s Geochronology and Isotopes Data Portal.
