The Seamless Geology dataset for Zone 56 was compiled from over 200 individual datasets representing published and unpublished GSNSW maps, thesis maps, journal publications, and unpublished maps from the Survey's GS Reports. The lineage and processing of this seamless dataset will be the subject of a GSNSW Quarterly Note to be published in 2015. A brief summary is presented below:

• Between 1962 and 1972, first edition 1:250,000 scale geological maps were published by the GSNSW over all of Zone 56. During the 1980's and early 90's many of these maps in the New England area were remapped as part of the Survey's Metallogenic Mapping Program. This era also saw the digital back-capture of older maps. A small number of 1:100,000 scale geological maps were also completed during this period in the Sydney area [Sydney (1983), Penrith (1991), and Wollongong-Port Hacking (1985)] and in the sourthern New England Orogen [Camberwell (1991), Dungog (1991) and Bullahdelah (1991)].

• During the late 1990's and early 2000's, several large regional geological compilations were carried out as part of forestry and bioregion studies in the New England area and also in the southern parts of Zone 56. These included: the Lower Northeast Regional Forestry Agreement (1999), the Upper Northeast Regional Forestry Agreement (2000), the Southern Regional Forestry Assessment (2000), the Nandewar Western Regional Assessment (2003), the Brigalow Belt South Bioregion Assessment (2003), and the Comprehensive Coastal Assessment Quaternary Geology (2004). Other important compilations undertaken by the GSNSW in this period were the East Lachlan Orogen datasets (2004 and 2007) and the Coalfield Regional Geology series [Western Coalfied South (1992), Hunter Coalfield (1994), Newcastle Coalfield (1995), Western Coalfield North (1998), and Southern Coalfield (1999)]. Collectively, these studies resulted in a rapid upgrade of the geology datasets covering large areas of Zone 56. In particular, the various compilations in the New England Orogen area substantially improved the geological coverage of the region, with the existing GSNSW 1:250,000 and 1:100,000 Geology and 1:250,000 Metallogenic Maps being combined with numerous thesis maps and other previously unpublished mapping (in particular, compilations of Carboniferous geology by John Roberts). These compilations were brought together and merged during 2004-05 by Ken McDonald and Mark Dawson. Collectively, these regional compilation datasets form the basis of much of the Zone 56 Seamless Geology dataset apart from in the greater Sydney area and in several areas covered by more recent geological mapping, namely: Woodburn 1:100,000 Geological Sheet (2003), Bare Point 1:100,000 Geological Sheet (2004), Warwick-Tweed Heads 1:250 000 Metallogenic Map (2013 - provisional), Manilla 1:100,000 Geological Sheet (2013), Moss Vale 1:100,000 Geological Sheet (2013 - provisional), and Gosford-Lake Macquarie 1:100,000 Geological Sheet (2013 - provisional).

• During 2009-2013, the GSNSW Statewide Geology Geodatabase was extensively remodelled and upgraded. Over this period, all of the existing digital vector geology datasets held by the GSNSW were imported into the new geodatabase schema, and assigned a standard set of attributes, projections and data structure. In addition, a program to back capture data from older maps and compilations was also undertaken, resulting in over 70,000 structural data points and 18 entire geology maps being captured.

• The Seamless Geology Project commenced in late 2013 when a merge of the best available datasets for Zone 56 was assembled in the Statewide Geology Geodatabase (v.2) format. The source datasets for this merge are shown in the associated layer "Zone56_SourceDatasets" in this geodatabase. This merged dataset was divided into stratotectonic layers which were then edited by a small team of geologists, resolving edge-match issues and nomenclature problems between the geology of adjacent map sheets, and interpreting various layers under the cover of overlying layers. This produced a series of seamless geology layers which showed, for the first time, the actual distribution of rock units and structures, both in outcrop and under cover. In addition, Alexa Troedson was contracted to provide a digital map of the Quaternary coastal geology between Newcastle and Wollongong, an area which was missing from the 2004 CCA Quaternary Geology dataset.

A complete list of the 205 data sources which were used in the compilation of the Zone 56 Seamless Geology dataset appears below. More details on which datasets were used in specific areas can be obtained by interrogating the fields "Src_Data", "MapName" and "MapNumber" and by referring to the accompanying feature class layer "Zone56_SourceDatasets" in this geodatabase.
