Exploration
& beyond
Geological Survey of New South Wales
Through the New Frontiers initiative, the New South Wales Government is committed to
promoting exploration in the under-explored north- and south-western regions of the
state. Exploration and data interpretation in these areas had been constrained by lack of
information.
The Discovery 2000 program was introduced in 1994–95. It provided $35 million over
six years and resulted in high-resolution airborne geophysical coverage over much
of New South Wales.
In 2001, a further $30 million was committed over seven years under the
Exploration NSW initiative, which took airborne geophysical coverage to more
than 80% of the state.
In 2006, the government announced the New Frontiers initiative with a focus on
greenfields opportunities in New South Wales — in particular the far north-western
and south-western ‘frontier’ areas.
As technology has changed, so has the way in which mapping information has been delivered
to the industry.
The Geological Survey, through the NSW Department of Primary Industries, has developed a
variety of geoscience products, including data sets on DVDs/CDs and maps that are available
for both the state and individual projects.
Geoscience (GIS) data packages on CD or DVD ROM typically contain detailed geology,
geophysical imagery, mineral occurrences, geochemistry, drill-holes, tenements, reports and
other spatial information.
Recently produced data packages include datasets in ArcGIS and MapInfo formats, and
are designed to autorun. Data packages produced earlier generally contain datasets in
ArcView 3x and MapInfo formats, which may affect some functionality when used with
more recent software such as ArcGIS.
Pre 2002 data packages generally contain datasets using the AGD66 datum; more recent
packages employ the GDA94 datum.
Data packages are AU$110 per CD-ROM/DVD-ROM (GST inclusive). An order form for these
products is on the last page or email: geoscience.products@dpi.nsw.gov.au
