  • This service has been created specifically for display in the National Map and the chosen symbology may not suit other mapping applications. The Australian Topographic web map service is seamless national dataset coverage for the whole of Australia. These data are best suited to graphical applications. These data may vary greatly in quality depending on the method of capture and digitising specifications in place at the time of capture. The web map service portrays detailed graphic representation of features that appear on the Earth's surface. These features include culture, habitation, industry and utility themes from the Geoscience Australia 250K Topographic Data.

  • OPGGSA 2006 - Petroleum Blocks. This service displays the most recent realisation of the Petroleum Blocks as defined under Section 33 (3) of the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006 (OPGGSA 2006) as realised in GDA94. Block data extends beyond the area of operation of the OPGGSA and includes areas of coastal waters and land within the constitutional limits of the States and Territories.

  • Petroleum Blocks cut to the AMB 2014a epoch. The service contains the Blocks as defined under Section 33 (3) of the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006. Coverage includes indicative areas of coastal waters and land, within the constitutional limits of the States and territories.

  • Geographic extent: The study area covers Woody Island and the surrounding seabed, located approximately 15 km SE of the town of Esperance in Western Australia . Contents: Reson TM Seabat 8125 multibeam sonar data and associated backscatter intensity, sediment grab sample and core location data, Quickbird satellite imagery. Data Source: The visualisation contains data aquired as part of the Coastal CRC's Coastal Water Habitat Mapping project, during 2003 - 2005. Size: The total size of the model and all associated files is 2.7Mb. The initial download for the base HTML documents and the Woody Island surface is 970Kb.

  • X3D Earth is a planned virtual globe application from the Web3D Consortium. It will differ from Google Earth (GE) (and other existing virtual globes) in the following ways: it will use an existing open source standard 3D file format (X3D); be truly 3D (most other virtual globes do not currently handle sub-surface data); allow distributed storage of the 3D data; and allow agencies such as GA to create and distribute their own data. One motivation for developing X3D Earth is to provide a mechanism for long term and open access to public 3D geospatial data. Development is planned for 2006/07. This whitepaper is Geoscience Australia's contribution to the X3D Earth requirements workshop, November 2006.

  • This web service provides access to the National Telephone Exchanges dataset and presents the spatial locations of all the known telephone exchange facilities located within Australia, all complemented with feature attribution.

  • This web service shows areas or locations occupied by an existing high-density urban development or known individual building structures in peri-urban and remote locations. Data used in this service is of varying levels of coverage and quality since it is aggregated from a variety of sources. The intended purpose of the service is to provide preliminary, first-pass information about urban environment, building structures and their distribution in landscape, as one of constraints on future development. Users should carry out further and more detailed investigations because this information is not meant to be a definitive source or support engineering phase planning. The service has layer scale dependencies.

  • This service is produced for the National Map project. It provides seamless topographic greyscale mapping for the whole of Australia, including the external territories of Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Christmas Island, Norfolk Island and Lord Howe Island. The service consists of Geoscience Australia data at smaller scales and OpenStreetMap data is used at larger scales. The service contains layer scale dependencies.

  • A dataset for display as a layer in the Australian Mines Atlas. It is compiled from many shapefiles of Aboriginal Land, including: Indigenous Protected areas (from DEWHA), Registered Indigenous Land Use Agreements, (hosted by GA on behalf of the National Native Title Tribunal) Determinations of Native Title, (hosted by GA on behalf of the National Native Title Tribunal) Registered Native Title Claims, (hosted by GA on behalf of the National Native Title Tribunal) Indigenous land, freehold and leasehold (prepared by Peter Richardson at GA in 2009)
