    The petrophysics dataset contains petrophysical (rock physical properties) data acquired by the Geological Survey of NSW. It stores measurements of samples and mapping sites collected under the Field Observations database, including from drillholes. It currently covers the following techniques: mass properties, electrical, radiometric, seismic rock physics, magnetic susceptibility and magnetic remanence. It contains raw readings and calculated results, from field and laboratory environments. Vector and tensor magnetic properties (remanence and anisotropic magnetic susceptibility (AMS)) are oriented to in-situ (geographic) and fold-corrected (stratigraphic) co-ordinates where sample and bedding orientation are known.

    This layer shows the boundaries of each airborne gravity survey acquired by the NSW Government. Details on the spacing and age of the gravity data within each project area are in the attributes. The information contained in this publication is based on knowledge and understanding at time of writing (April 2017). Because of advances in knowledge, users are reminded of the need to ensure that information upon which they rely is up to date. The information contained in this publication may not be or may no longer be aligned with government policy nor does the publication indicate or imply government policy.

    Many airborne surveys have been acquired by the NSW government through the NSW Exploration, Discovery 2000 and New Frontiers Initiative funding. Others have been acquired jointly with Geoscience Australia (formerly AGSO). Contained within this vector file are details on each of the surveys and some acquisition parameters, which will help locate survey data stored digitally.

    Marine protected areas are parts of the NSW marine estate managed to conserve marine biodiversity and support marine science, recreation and education. The NSW system of marine protected areas includes: marine parks – six multiple use marine parks cover around one third (approximately 345,000 hectares) of the NSW marine estate aquatic reserves – 12 aquatic reserves cover around 2,000 hectares of the NSW marine estate national parks and nature reserves – include around 20,000 hectares of estuarine and oceanic habitats.

    An index of 1:250 000 map sheets covering NSW. The index shows maps where the total statewide geophysics package has been clipped and re-imaged to enhance colour stretch for the local regions. Each map sheet suite contains grids and images for up to 40 different layers, including: - Total Magnetic Intensity (TMI) - TMI Reduced to the Pole (RTP) - First Vertical Derivative (1VD) of TMI RTP - Second Vertical Derivative (2VD) or TMI RTP - Tilt Angle Filter of TMI RTP - TMI RTP and TMI RTP Tilt composite - Analytical Signal (AS) of TMI RTP - 250m and 500m Upward Continuations (UC) of TMI RTP - 1VD of TMI RTP UC products - Potassium percentage (Kperc) - Thorium parts per million (Thppm) - Uranium parts per million (Uppm) - Potassium-Thorium-Uranium ternary (KThU) - Zero mean normalised Kperc - Zero mean normalised Thppm - Zero mean normalised Uppm - Dose Rate - Uranium squared divided by Thorium (U2/Th) - Thorium divided by Potassium (Th/K) - Uranium divided by Potassium (U/K) - Uranium divided by Thorium (U/Th) - Airborne & Ground Bouguer gravity - Airborne & Ground Bouguer gravity and TMI RTP Tilt composite - Airborne & Ground Bouguer gravity 1VD - Airborne & Ground Isostatic gravity - Airborne & Ground Isostatic gravity and TMI RTP Tilt composite - Airborne & Ground Isostatic gravity 1VD - Digital Elevation Model (DEM) - Terrain colour stretch - Pseudocolour colour stretch - Greyscale colour stretch
