This data package contains the main hydrogeological datasets compiled, analysed, developed, and used for the Geoscience Australia project that investigated the Cenozoic geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater systems of the Kati Thanda - Lake Eyre Basin in central Australia. This work, which was published as Geoscience Australia Record 2024/05 (Evans et al. 2024), was delivered as part of the National Groundwater Systems project in the Exploring for the Future program.

The hydrogeological and groundwater data includes new aquifer and aquifer province attribution for many thousands of groundwater bores, large-scale compilations of existing water level, salinity, and hydrogeochemical data, and new mapping of regional watertable trends and depth to standing water across the basin. These data are represented within the Geoscience Australia Record as various maps and related diagrams.
