Geoscience Australia Magnetotelluric Data Location Package: Government Funded Surveys to December 2017

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

Geoscience Australia (GA), in partnership with State (SA, NSW, VIC, QLD, WA and TAS) and Northern Territory Geological Surveys, has applied the magnetotelluric (MT) technique to image the resistivity structure of the Australian continent over the last decade. Data have been acquired at nearly 5000 stations across Australia through a national MT survey program and regional MT surveys. Most of the data are available at GA’s website. These data provided valuable information for multi-disciplinary interpretations that incorporate various datasets. This release package includes ArcGIS shape files and Excel files of MT station locations for the completed AusLAMP and regional surveys up to December 2017.
