Geology of Australia (1976) Digital Version; NRIC, Australia
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The Geology of Australia was a 1976 1:2500000 scale 4 quadrant set of mapsheets issued by the Bureau of Mineral Resources, Geology and Geophysics, Canberra, ACT, Australia.
Description
This data set is the digital version of Geology of Australia (1976). The digital data is scanned from printing separates held by the Australian federal Bureau of Mineral Resources.
The data was then cleaned and coverages created. It is about 32 megabytes (uncompressed). Five layers are presented in the dataset: lithology, Cenozoic cover, faults, lakes, and structure.

Lithology information includes bedrock geology topologically structured. Cenozoic surficial cover (spelled "Cainozoic" by Australian geologists) is also topologically structured. Faults are presented as arcs only.
Synclines and anticlines are also presented as arcs only. Lake coverage is topologically structured. The data is in a Arc/Info GIS form, EXPORT (ArcInfo EXPORT format).
The data is available for $A200.00 plus $15.00 postage/handling in Australia and $20.00 postage/handling for orders outside Australia from National Resource Information Centre. Order form from NRIC (Fax 06 2724687) or mail to: NRIC, PO Box E11, Queen Victoria Terrace, Parkes, ACT 2601.
