The OzEstuaries online GIS contains data for Australian estuaries (coastal waterways) and for oceans in the Australian region. Estuaries data include geomorphic habitat mapping, estuary condition, colour composite images (Landsat, MODIS and Quickbird satellite imagery and aerial photography), benthic classifications (from Landsat satellite imagery), bathymetry and population centres. Oceanic data include dissolved organic matter, chlorophyll concentration, suspended solids concentration and sea surface temperature (using MODIS satellite imagery) and bathymetry.
The GIS provides facilities to search for and zoom to estuaries, integrate mapping and imagery datasets, and retrieve statistical information from the OzEstuaries database; allowing users to view spatial and statistical information. The oceanic imagery provides a regional context for coastal waterways.
The GIS is part of Geoscience Australia's contribution to the Cooperative Research Centre for Coastal Zone, Estuary and Waterway Management (Coastal CRC). The geomorphic habitat mapping was conducted by Geoscience Australia for the National Land and Water Resources Audit, and is also part of Geoscience Australia's contribution to the Coastal CRC.

This GIS web browser contains stratigraphic information from the southern flank of the Murphy Inlier, Lawn Hill Platform and Leichhardt River Fault Trough in the Western Succession of the Mount Isa Block. The principal lithostratigraphic units covered by this dataset include the Surprise Creek Formation, Mount Isa and McNamara Groups. The images are pixilated versions of those contained on CD Records AGSO Record 1999/10, AGSO Record 1999/15, GA Record 2002/3. The data contained on the CD's is more comprehensive, at a better resolution and also contains cross sections that are not available over the web. No drill hole data is supplied in this viewer. The data compiled for this viewer was collected during the course of the NABRE, AMIRA P552 and pmd*CRC projects. The respective CD's also provide measured sections at different scales with slightly varying information available at 1:400, 1:1000, 1:2500 and 1:5000 scales. The information at each scale is slightly different. Plot files ready for printing also accompany the measured sections. Each of the measured sections contains primary observational data (grainsize, lithology, bed thickness, sedimentary structure and gamma ray curve) map-based lithostratigraphic units as shown on the 1:100,000 geological sheets, interpreted facies and sequence stratigraphic surfaces. Sections were measured using a Jacobs Staff and Abney Level and the rocks were marked in 1.5 m intervals of true thickness. Gamma ray data was collected at either 50 cm or 75 cm intervals of true thickness using hand-held Scintrex GRS 500 spectrometers that measured total gamma ray counts. A beryllium standard was used to calibrate each spectrometer. Each machine was calibrated at intervals of two to three hours. Each gamma reading was averaged over an interval of ten seconds. Outcrop discontinuities prevented the collection of stratigraphic data in a line of continuous section. As a result most of the sections present in this data set comprise a series of segments combined to form a single composite section. The single sections were all measured within a radius of several kilometres of each other. Individual sections were spliced together at prominent marker beds (outcrop tracing of strata), or by the use of overlapping gamma ray curves in conjunction with facies descriptions. Section locations shown in the web browser depict the base of each composite section. Grid coordinates for the base each composite section can be found in the header block of the appropriate section. The geological maps used in this web browser depict the approximate position of supersequence boundaries. Not all the geology for the region has been included and only the geology relevant to the measured sections has been used. The supersequences provided are based on the most appropriate lithostratigraphic boundaries and no new geological polygons have been created. It should be noted that the Torpedo Creek and Warrina Park Quartzites have been placed in the Prize Supersequence. However, we acknowledge that due to mis-mapping of these sand bodies the Torpedo Creek and Warrina Park Quartzites from the basal part of the Gun Supersequence at some locations.

This dataset is a series of digital map-posters accompanying the AdaptNRM Guide: Helping Biodiversity Adapt: supporting climate adaptation planning using a community-level modelling approach.
These represent supporting materials and information about the community-level biodiversity models applied to climate change. Map posters are organised by four biological groups (vascular plants, mammals, reptiles and amphibians), two climate change scenario (1990-2050 MIROC5 and CanESM2 for RCP8.5), and five measures of change in biodiversity.
The map-posters present the nationally consistent data at locally relevant resolutions in eight parts – representing broad groupings of NRM regions based on the cluster boundaries used for climate adaptation planning (http://www.environment.gov.au/climate-change/adaptation) and also Nationally.
Map-posters are provided in PNG image format at moderate resolution (300dpi) to suit A0 printing. The posters were designed to meet A0 print size and digital viewing resolution of map detail. An additional set in PDF image format has been created for ease of download for initial exploration and printing on A3 paper. Some text elements and map features may be fuzzy at this resolution.
Each map-poster contains four dataset images coloured using standard legends encompassing the potential range of the measure, even if that range is not represented in the dataset itself or across the map extent.
Most map series are provided in two parts: part 1 shows the two climate scenarios for vascular plants and mammals and part 2 shows reptiles and amphibians. Eight cluster maps for each series have a different colour theme and map extent. A national series is also provided. Annotation briefly outlines the topics presented in the Guide so that each poster stands alone for quick reference.
An additional 77 National maps presenting the probability distributions of each of 77 vegetation types – NVIS 4.1 major vegetation subgroups (NVIS subgroups) - are currently in preparation.

This map is one of a series of soil landscape maps that are intended for all of eastern and central NSW, based on standard 1:100,000 or 1:250,000 topographic sheets. The map provides an inventory of soil and landscape properties of the Blackville area and identifies major soil and landscape qualities and constraints. It integrates soil and topographic features into single units with relatively uniform land management requirements. Soils are described in terms of soil materials in addition to Australian Soil Classification and Great Soil Group systems. Related Datasets: The dataset area is also covered by the mapping of the Soil and Land Resources of the Liverpool Plains Catchment and Hydrogeological landscapes of NSW. Online Maps: This and related datasets can be viewed using eSPADE (NSW’s soil spatial viewer), which contains a suite of soil and landscape information including soil profile data. Many of these datasets have hot-linked soil reports. An alternative viewer is the SEED Map; an ideal way to see what other natural resources datasets (e.g. vegetation) are available for this map area.

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.
This dataset was sourced from the Queensland Department of Natural Resources and Mines in 2012. Information provided by the Department describes the dataset as follows:
This data was originally provided on DVD and contains the converted shapefiles, layer files, raster images and project .mxd files used on the Queensland geology and structural framework map. The maps were done in ArcGIS 9.3.1 and the data stored in file geodatabases, topology created and validated. This provides greater data quality by performing topological validation on the feature's spatial relationships. For the purposes of the DVD, shapefiles were created from the file geodatabases and for MapInfo users MapInfo .tab and .wor files. The shapefiles on the DVD are a revision of the 1975 Queensland geology data, and are both are available for display, query and download on the department's online GIS application.
The Queensland geology map is a digital representation of the distribution or extent of geological units within Queensland. In the GIS, polygons have a range of attributes including unit name, type of unit, age, lithological description, dominant rock type, and an abbreviated symbol for use in labelling the polygons. The lines in this dataset are a digital representation of the position of the boundaries of geological units and other linear features such as faults and folds. The lines are attributed with a description of the type of line represented. Approximately 2000 rock units were grouped into the 250 map units in this data set. The digital data was generalised and simplified from the Department's detailed geological data and was captured at 1:500 000 scale for output at 1:2 000 000 scale.
In the ESRI version, a layer file is provided which presents the units in the colours and patterns used on the printed hard copy map. For Map Info users, a simplified colour palette is provided without patterns. However a georeferenced image of the hard copy map is included and can be displayed as a background in both Arc Map and Map Info.
The geological framework of Queensland is classified by structural or tectonic unit (provinces and basins) in which the rocks formed. These are referred to as basins (or in some cases troughs and depressions) where the original form and structure are still apparent. Provinces (and subprovinces) are generally older basins that have been strongly tectonised and/or metamorphosed so that the original basin extent and form are no longer preserved. Note that intrusive and some related volcanic rocks that overlap these provinces and basins have not been included in this classification. The map was compiled using boundaries modified and generalised from the 1:2 000 000 Queensland Geology map (2012). Outlines of subsurface basins are also shown and these are based on data and published interpretations from petroleum exploration and geophysical surveys (seismic, gravity and magnetics).
For the structural framework dataset, two versions are provided. In QLD_STRUCTURAL_FRAMEWORK, polygons are tagged with the name of the surface structural unit, and names of underlying units are imbedded in a text string in the HIERARCHY field. In QLD_STRUCTURAL_FRAMEWORK_MULTI_POLYS, the data is structured into a series of overlapping, multi-part polygons, one for each structural unit. Two layer files are provided with the ESRI data, one where units are symbolised by name. Because the dataset has been designed for units display in the order of superposition, this layer file assigns colours to the units that occur at the surface with concealed units being left uncoloured. Another layer file symbolises them by the orogen of which they are part. A similar set of palettes has been provided for Map Info.
Details on the source data can be found in the xml file associated with data layer.

SUPERSEDED *** A Geographical Indication (GI) is an official description of an Australian wine zone, region or sub-region. It takes the form of a legal textual description (i.e. a list of grid references, map coordinates, roads and natural landmarks that can be traced to outline the area) along with an associated map.The spatial dataset is an interpretation of the legal textual description based on translating the textual references to geospatial coordinates. Where there is any ambiguity in the translation or contradiction between the textual description and the spatial representation, the textual description prevails.GIs have a hierarchy where zones contain regions and regions contain sub-regions. Zones (including the states of Tasmania and Queensland and the Northern Territory) cover the whole area of Australia whereas regions and sub-regions are defined areas that have commonalities in terms of wine production and/or winegrape growing.Attributes attached to each GI include: total area (size) of the GI, area of vineyards within the GI, average reported winegrape crush from the GI for the past 5 years. GI regions also have climate attributes including: Mean January Temperature, Growing Degree Days, Growing Season Rainfall and Annual Rainfall. These attributes are averaged over a moving 30 year average period to the last complete growing season. These attributes are updated annually to incorporate the latest year's data.

PLEASE NOTE: These data have been updated. See Related Links for new data. Geoscience Australia has the primary role in the delineation of Australia's maritime boundaries. An output of this activity is the development of the Australian Maritime Boundaries (AMB) data. AMB is a GIS data product, replacing AMBIS 2001 Version 1.1, providing access to the data for Australia's Territorial Sea Baseline (TSB) and maritime zones.
AMB is a digital representation of Australia's territorial sea baseline and boundaries as established under the Seas and Submerged Lands Act 1973. The data also include a representation of the limits by which the adjacent areas of each of the States and of the Northern Territory are determined under the Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act 1967. In the event of an inconsistency between AMB data and the baseline and limits under the legislation, the latter prevails.
The data have been published by Geoscience Australia in consultation with other relevant Commonwealth Government agencies including the Attorney-General's Department, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the Australian Hydrographic Office.
AMB data comprise the TSB and the outer limits of each zone, together with maritime boundaries determined by treaties between Australia and neighbouring countries. Base points that generate the zone boundaries are supplied in separate files and an extensive user guide provides useful background information. All data coordinates are supplied in the World Geodetic System (WGS 84) (ITRF 2000 @ 2000.0) which is effectively identical to the GDA94 datum.
Geoscience Australia is committed to the maintenance of the maritime boundaries data to ensure it reflects the changing nature of Australia's coastline and hence the various maritime zone limits. The data reflects the location of the coastline within the constraints of available source material at the time of production. Where major differences have since been discovered, these are listed in a table of notes and cautions.
AMB Data can now also be viewed on-line via AMSIS.

Export Data Access API NSW Physiography Category multiCRS MultiCRS service - supporting requests in multiple Coordinate Reference Systems - Information Sheet A new series of ‘multiCRS’ web services have been published to support GDA2020. These new ‘multiCRS’ services: · have a spatial reference of GDA2020 · support alignment with GDA2020, GDA94 or [WGS 84-aligned-to-GDA2020] GIS environments,using built-in server-side transformations: o GDA94 < NTv2-CPD > GDA2020 o GDA94 < NTv2-CPD > WGS 84 aligned to GDA2020 o GDA2020 < NULL > WGS 84 aligned to GDA2020 Note: ESRI software will automatically align by transforming from the sourceSpatialReference (GDA94). Other software may need to set client-side transformations from the SpatialReference (GDA2020). Note: Client-side transformation(s) can be used to over-ride these default transformations.The original [WGS 84-aligned-to-GDA2020] is still available, without the ‘multiCRS’ suffix. In due course, and allowing time for user feedback and testing, it is intended that the original service name will adopt this new 'multiCRS' functionality. Metadata Portal Metadata Information
Content TitleNSW Physiography Category multiCRSContent TypeHosted Feature LayerDescriptionThis category is a spatial representation of geographic features as lines, points and polygons that supports multiple coordinate reference systems.Physiography Category represents a list of classes for topographic features whose primary characteristics relate to land surface or landform. This theme includes the following feature classes:Contours see NSW Elevation ThemeDistinctive Land Surface - represents areas of discrete land surface classified as:DLSAreaIntertidal FlatDLSLine LeveeDLSPointReefFuzzy Extent - features representing the approximate location of formally named landforms that have relatively indistinct name extent and are represented as points, lines and polygonsFuzzyExtentAreaDune Like (including Dune, Sandhill and Sandridge)Flat Like (including Flat, Plain, River Flat and Terrace)General PlaceLandcover LikePeninsula LikePlateau LikeSlope LikeSwamp LikePromontory LikeValley LikeFuzzyExtentLineBeach Dune LikeGeneral LocalityRange LikeValley LikeFuzzyExtentPointBeach Flat LikeGeneral LocalityHeadland LikeGap LikeIsland Like (including island and inlet)Landcover Like (including Clearing, Desert, Moor and Scrub)Mountain LikePeninsula Like (including Cape, Peninsula and Spit)Plateau Like (including Mesa, Plateau and Tableland)Sandbar LikeSlope Like (including Buttress, Cliff, Escarpment, Fault, Gradient, Rock Face, Slope and Steeps)Valley LikePromontory LikeInitial Publication Date05/02/2020Data Currency01/01/3000Data Update FrequencyOtherContent SourceData provider filesFile TypeESRI File Geodatabase (*.gdb)Attribution© State of New South Wales (Spatial Services, a business unit of the Department of Customer Service NSW).

This dataset was captured by digitising the best available cadastral mapping at a variety of scales and accuracies, ranging from 1:500 to 1:250 000 according to the National Mapping Council of Australia, Standards of Map Accuracy (1975). Therefore, the position of the feature instance will be within 0.5mm at map scale for 90% of the well-defined points. That is, 1:500 = 0.25m, 1:2000 = 1m, 1:4000 = 2m, 1:25000 = 12.5m, 1:50000 = 25m and 1:100000 = 50m. A program to upgrade the spatial location and accuracy of data is ongoing.Spatial Reference System (dataset)GDA94Spatial Reference System (web service)OtherWGS84 Equivalent ToGDA94Spatial ExtentFull StateContent LineageFor additional information, please contact us via the Spatial Services Customer HubData ClassificationUnclassifiedData Access PolicyOpenData QualityFor additional information, please contact us via the Spatial Services Customer HubTerms and ConditionsCreative CommonsStandard and SpecificationOpen Geospatial Consortium (OGC) implemented and compatible for consumption by common GIS platforms.

This Guide is designed to assist you with using ArcGIS Online (AGOL)'s Map Viewer.An ArcGIS web map is an interactive display of geographic information. Web maps are made by adding and combining layers. The layers are made from data, they are logical collections of geographic data.Map Viewer can be used to view, explore and create web maps in ArcGIS Online.
The Yilgarn online GIS displays a wide range of data including geological datasets, topographical data, geophysical images and seismic traverses, whole rock geochemistry and geochronology samples. It provides an aeromagnetic interpretation (lithology distribution and structure) and a geological interpretation of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton, one of Australia's key mineral provinces. The online GIS also focuses on the Leonora-Neale Transect, by providing a detailed solid geology interpretation of the section. The Yilgarn Craton occurs within Western Australia and covers 10% of the Australian continent. Exposure of bedrock is extremely poor throughout the region and most known mineral deposits occur within or adjacent to sparse outcrop. The online GIS provides a view through the poorly magnetised cover to display bedrock distribution. Interpreted rock types of the region include granite, granitic gneiss, layered intrusions and sills. Interpreted structural elements include lithological banding, faults, and dyke swarms. Also presented are several surrounding and partially overlying Proterozoic and Phanerozoic basins and provinces.
The Yilgarn Craton is arguably Australia's premier mineral province, attracting more than half the mineral exploration expenditure, and producing two thirds of the gold and most of the nickel mined in the country. For this reason, the online GIS provides the ability to display all deposits in the region or the option of displaying gold or nickel deposits only. Distribution of mineral deposits can be compared to other data layers including geology, and aeromagnetic domains.
This map has been produced as a GeoPDF, which is an extension to the standard PDF file format viewed using Adobe Acrobat Reader. Layers can be turned off and on to customise the view of the data, similar to using Geographic Information System tools. In addition, GeoPDF maps are georeferenced to be compatible with other coordinated geographic data. Coordinate locations and distances can be retrieved automatically.
A plug-in to view GeoPDF using Adobe Acrobat Reader is available as a free download ( http://terragotech.com/solutions/map2pdf_reader.php ).

These data provide locational and attribute information for places for places nominated to and included in the National Heritage List as determined by the Australian Government managed by the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water. National Heritage List polygons with attribute information describing the place name, class (indigenous, natural, historic), and status. Places subject to confidentiality agreements are included in these data but the location is generalised to the bounding 100k mapsheet. The location data for place nominations that have been rejected, are ineligible, removed or destroyed are not included in the publicly downloadable spatial dataset.
The OzEstuaries online GIS contains data for Australian estuaries (coastal waterways) and for oceans in the Australian region. Estuaries data include geomorphic habitat mapping, estuary condition, colour composite images (Landsat, MODIS and Quickbird satellite imagery and aerial photography), benthic classifications (from Landsat satellite imagery), bathymetry and population centres. Oceanic data include dissolved organic matter, chlorophyll concentration, suspended solids concentration and sea surface temperature (using MODIS satellite imagery) and bathymetry.
The GIS provides facilities to search for and zoom to estuaries, integrate mapping and imagery datasets, and retrieve statistical information from the OzEstuaries database; allowing users to view spatial and statistical information. The oceanic imagery provides a regional context for coastal waterways.
The GIS is part of Geoscience Australia's contribution to the Cooperative Research Centre for Coastal Zone, Estuary and Waterway Management (Coastal CRC). The geomorphic habitat mapping was conducted by Geoscience Australia for the National Land and Water Resources Audit, and is also part of Geoscience Australia's contribution to the Coastal CRC.
