Index of Gravity Surveys - Geoscience Australia

More specifically as at November 2005 the link ishttp://www.ga.gov.au/minerals/research/methodology/geophysics/index.jspThe new Index series reports on the metadata now stored in an Oracle database within theGeophysical Acquisition and Databases Project in the Minerals Division of GeoscienceAustralia.Information on surveys, in the form of an interactive interrogation of a map of Australia, canalso be obtained from GA's website:http://www.ga.gov.au/map/national/The development of the Australian National Gravity Database is summarised in the papersbelow:Dooley, J. C., & Barlow, B. C., 1976 – Gravimetry in Australia 1819 – 1976. BMR Journal ofAustralian Geology & Geophysics, 1, 261 – 271.Murray, A. S., 1997 – The Australian National Gravity Database. AGSO Journal ofAustralian Geology & Geophysics, 17(1), 145-155.Geoscience Australia would like to acknowledge the enormously valuable contribution madeby all State and Territory Geological Surveys, private companies, educational institutions andother research organisations in helping to produce and maintain the Australian NationalGravity Database. The data contributed by these organisations make up a large component ofthe Australian National Gravity Database. Their inclusion considerably enhances the value ofthe database to the geoscientific community.27 January 2006 © Copyright Geoscience Australia 2006 viii
