Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The 2019 Total magnetic Intensity (TMI) grid of Australia has a grid cell size of ~3 seconds of arc (approximately 80 m). This grid only includes airborne-derived TMI data for onshore and near-offshore continental areas. Since the sixth edition was released in 2015, data from 234 new surveys have been added to the database, acquired mainly by the State and Territory Geological Surveys. The 2019 national grid was derived from a re-levelling of the national magnetic grid database. The survey grids were levelled to each other, and to the Australia Wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS), which serves as a baseline to constrain long wavelengths in the final grid. It is estimated that 33 500 000 line-kilometres of survey data were acquired to produce the 2019 grid data, about 2 000 000 line-kilometres more than for the previous edition. The data are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. . This Magnetic Anomaly Map of Australia, Seventh Edition, 2020 - Enhanced Products Package - TMI RTP image (PGrav) is a pseudocolour image of the TMI grid of the Magnetic Anomaly Map of Australia, Seventh Edition, 2019. This grid has a cell size of 0.00083 degrees (approximately 88m). This pseudocolour image shows the magnetic response of subsurface features with contrasting magnetic susceptibilities. The image can also be used to locate structural features such as dykes.

This magnetic grid has a cell size of 0.00083 degrees (approximately 88m).The data are in nanoTesla (or nT). It is estimated that 33 500 000 line-kilometres of survey data collected by State and Territory geological surveys and Geoscience Australia were acquired to produce the 2019 national magnetic grid. The data has had a variable reduction to the pole applied to centre the magnetic anomaly over the magnetised body. The VRTP processing followed a differential reduction to pole calculation up to 5th order polynomial. Magnetic inclination and declination were derived from the IGRF-15 geomagnetic reference model using a data representative date and elevation representative of the survey. The upward continuation manipulates the magnetic data to enhance the large deep source anomalies and minimises shallow anomalies. To constrain long wavelengths in the grid, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey grid. This survey grid is essentially levelled to AWAGS.
