Cape York Ellipsoid Ground Elevation geodetic

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

Digital Elevation data record the terrain height variations from the processed point- or line-located data recorded during a geophysical survey. This Cape York Ellipsoid Ground Elevation geodetic is elevation data for the Cape York Gravity Survey, Qld, 2009 (P200940). This survey was acquired under the project No. 200940 for the geological survey of QLD. The grid has a cell size of 0.0075 degrees (approximately 820m). This grid contains the ground elevation relative to the geoid for the Cape York Gravity Survey, Qld, 2009 (P200940). It represents the vertical distance from a location on the Earth's surface to the geoid. The data are given in units of meters. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
