NSW Total Magnetic Intensity (TMI)

Pseudocolour image of total magnetic intensity (TMI) with a histogram-equalised colour-stretch. Cooler colours indicate lower magnetic intensity values and warmer colours represent higher values. The intensity layer is the TMI greyscale image enhanced by a 3x3 sun filter with the sun illumination set at 45 degrees elevation and 90 degrees azimuth. Variations in the magnetic field are caused by lithological factors, principally magnetite (and/or pyrrhotite) content. This Statewide image was generated by merging many individual airborne magnetic surveys.
