DATA APPLICATIONS

Application	Description
Geoscience Australia's Geochron Delivery System	Geoscience Australia's Geochron Delivery system is the retrieval system for geochronological data stored by Geoscience Australia. The system will be continually updated as the volume, variety and quality of available geochronological data increase. The initial (September 2011) release contains only ion microprobe (SHRIMP) data, comprising data from about 560 samples, chiefly derived from Geoscience Australia's previous Geochronology OZCHRON. Migration of further OZCHRON data, and upload of more recent data (including analyses obtained in collaboration with the States and the Northern Territory under the National Geoscience Agreement) is ongoing and continuous.
Search the Petroleum Information Management System	PIMS is a search tool for discovery of survey and well data assets and physical samples held by the Geoscience Australia Repository. Data can be ordered and viewing of samples can be arranged via an online form. Although this is public data, fees are charged to cover the cost of transcription and delivery.
View Scanned 1:250 000 Geology Maps on the Geoscience Portal	View information on or download scanned images of all 1:250 000 scale geology maps of Australia. Images are available in 75 DPI, 125 DPI or 250 DPI resolution JPG files. Digital delivery of published (ie, cartographically produced) geological maps. When georeferenced, these images may be used as background information in GIS applications. Scanned image (eg, JPG), postscript, or PDF format published geological maps (including regolith, surface geology and solid geology) at all scales. This data may or may not be georeferenced.
Petroleum Wells Application	This application provides access to GA's Oracle petroleum wells databases. Data themes include header data, biostratigraphy, organic geochemistry, reservoir and facies, stratigraphy, velocity and directional surveys. Data is included for offshore and onshore regions. Scientific data entry is generally only conducted for offshore wells. Onshore data is generally acquired from state geological surveys.
Australian Fundamental Gravity Network	Web delivery system to provide locality description and images of AFGN stations to the general public.
Geophysical Archive Data Delivery System Application	This system provides magnetic, radiometric, gravity and digital elevation data from Australian National, State and Territory Government geophysical data archives.
ProvExplorer - Australian Geological Provinces Database	The Australian Geological Provinces Database contains descriptions and polygon outlines of geological provinces of the Australian continent and surrounding marine jurisdictional area. The provinces are mapped at a nominal 1:1 million scale. The database can be interactively queried, and the results retrieved as reports and maps. Attributes include igneous, sedimentary and structural characteristics, age limits, parent and constituent units, relations to surrounding provinces, and mineral and petroleum resources.
