Western Desert AEM Survey Map

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

Using an airborne electro-magnetic system previously unused in Australia called Spectrem, the Geoscience Australia groundwater survey will measure variations in the electrical conductivity of the ground. The survey was planned in the remote south-west of the Northern Territory near the West Australian border around the communities of Kintore, Nyirripi and Papunya, in 2011 but was not flown due to circumstances beyond our control.
