Hazards Data and Applications

Sentinel (Bushfire mapping application)
Sentinel is a national bushfire monitoring system that provides timely information about hotspots to emergency service managers across Australia. The mapping system allows users to identify fire locations with a potential risk to communities and property.
Nuclear Explosions Database
Geoscience Australia maintains a database of nuclear explosions with the location, time and size of explosions that have occured around the world since 1945.
Australian Earthquakes Database
This earthquake mapping tool allows you to view recent earthquakes, explore all Australian and worldwide earthquakes and report an earthquake. A list of recent earthquakes is also available.
Australian Flood Studies Database
This database provides metadata on riverine flood studies completed in Australia between 1980 and mid 2004.
Australian Landslide Database
This database contains information on landslides that have been recorded in Australia since 1842. Data is used in risk assessments and to raise awareness about landslide occurrence and their impacts.

The Australian Landslide Database is a prototype application presently under development. A new methodology is being trialled to offer users access to information held by host providers. Until further work is completed on this database, unfiltered searches may take one minute to execute. Your understanding is appreciated as we continue to refine this new methodology.
