This web service delivers metadata for onshore active and passive seismic surveys conducted across the Australian continent by Geoscience Australia and its collaborative partners. For active seismic this metadata includes survey header data, line location and positional information, and the energy source type and parameters used to acquire the seismic line data. For passive seismic this metadata includes information about station name and location, start and end dates, operators and instruments. The metadata are maintained in Geoscience Australia's onshore active seismic and passive seismic database, which is being added to as new surveys are undertaken. Links to datasets, reports and other publications for the seismic surveys are provided in the metadata.

The 1:250 000 maps show the type and distribution of 51 regolith-landform units with unique dominant regolith-landform associations, and are a subset of the 205 mapping units on the six 1:100 000 maps. These units are distinct patterns of recurring landform elements with characteristic regolith associations. Geomorphic symbols indicate the location and type of geomorphic activity. The maps present a systematic analysis and interpretation of 1:89 000 scale 1973 RC9 aerial photography, 1:100 000 scale topographic maps (AUSLIG), and field mapping data. High resolution (250m line spacing) airborne gamma-ray spectrometry and magnetics (Geoterrex) were used where applicable

Slope failures with associated submarine slides, sediment accumulation along contourite drifts and focus seepage features have been interpreted from new sub-bottom profiler, multibeam bathymetry, side-scan sonar, echo-sounder data together with geochemical analyses of sediment samples along the continental slope off Western Australia. The processes recognised show the implication of slope instability and hydrocarbon seepage in shaping the continental slope geomorphology. The spatial correlation between regional seafloor features and reactivation of pre-existing faults suggests tectonics and seismic activity being the main potential triggering parameters for slope processes offshore northern Perth Basin. Geomechanical models have been used to test potential up-fault leakage using the present-day stress field and the results correlate with the seepage features observed in the study area. The marine survey results provide additional support for the presence of an active petroleum system in the northern Perth Basin; and combined with geomechanical models, the study helps reducing petroleum exploration and geohazards riks.

From 1995 to 2000 information from the federal and state governments was compiled for Comprehensive Regional Assessments (CRA), which formed the basis for Regional Forest Agreements (RFA) that identified areas for conservation to meet targets agreed by the Commonwealth Government with the United Nations. These 5 CDs were created as part of GA's contribution to the SE Queensland CRA. CD1 contains ArcView Legends and Projects, data coverages, shapefiles, all documents and reports and associated maps and figures. CD2 contains various edited versions of covers and shapefiles, original data supplied by custodians, and staff workareas. CD3 contains Landsat, Magnetics etc. images. CD4 contains DEM etc. CD5 contains integration data, miscellaneous ArcInfo grids, and ArcInfo graphic files.
