This 1996 Guide to the Australian stratigraphic names database was designed to help users understand the database and its data contents. This guide presents an overview of the database structure and links to other AGSO databases as they were in 1996. There have been subsequent modifications to both the database structure and the presentation format but the purpose, general structure and types of reports available from the database remain the same in 2009.

See the Australian Stratigraphic Units Database web page for more information, or to search the current database.
