Digital Geology of Tasmania


	1:500 000 scale Digital Geology of Tasmania This data set (geology) has been generalised from the 1:250 000 scale digital geology of Tasmania using ArcInfo GIS software. The attribute information is stored in a series of tables in ArcInfo and spatial data can be supplied in Shape File format, or as MapInfo import/export files on CD-ROM. Price: $55 Map A computer generated map of the geology is available. Output is on an ink jet plotter, and lamination of maps is recommended where outside use is envisaged. Price: $11 (lamination $11 extra) 1:250 000 scale Digital Geology of Tasmania The data (geology and structure) are derived from the 1:25 000, 1:50 000 and 1:63 360 scale Geological Atlas Series maps, or where these maps do not exist, the best available information. The information from these maps has been generalised and compiled (at 1:50 000 scale) to fit the 1:250 000 scale digital topographical base of Land Information Services, Department of Primary Industries, Water and Environment. The attribute information is stored in a series of tables in ArcInfo and spatial data can be supplied in Shape File format, or as MapInfo import/export files on CD-ROM. This data set was revised in May 1998.

	1:250 000 scale Digital Geology Map Series packages Northwest, Southwest, Northeast and Southeast Tasmania The 1:250 000 scale geological data are available as data packages for each map area. The packages contain data on geology, structure, mineral deposit and construction material deposit locations (DEPOSITS), stream-sediment geochemistry sample locations, rock chemistry sample locations, and drillhole locations (DORIS). A georeferenced image of the map is also provided in ECW and TIFF formats. Price: $55 (per map area) Maps Computer generated maps, of geology and structure data only, are available. Output is on an ink jet plotter and lamination of maps is recommended where outside use is envisaged. Price: $11 (lamination $11 extra) Source250 This data set records the source of the geological data, reliability information, and the geologists responsible for compiling the information. These data are supplied with the 1:250 000 scale digital geological data. 1:25 000 Scale Digital Geology of Tasmania This data set is derived from source data of the 1:25 000, 1:50 000 and 1:63 360 scale Geological Atlas Series maps and other sources. The information from these maps has been compiled to fit the 1:25 000 scale digital topographical base of Land Information Services, Department of Primary Industries, Water and Environment (i.e. the 1:25 000 TASMAP Series). The attribute information is stored in a series of tables in ArcInfo and spatial data can be supplied in Shape File format, or as MapInfo import/export files on CD-ROM.

	1:25 000 scale Digital Geology Map Series packages Geological data at a scale of 1:25 000 are available, on the basis of 1:25 000 scale maps, as a package containing geology, structure, mineral deposit and construction materials deposit locations (DEPOSITS), stream-sediment geochemistry sample locations, rock chemistry sample locations and drillhole locations (DORIS). A georeferenced image of the map is also provided in ECW and TIFF formats. Price: $55 (Per map area) Maps Computer generated maps of geology, structure and mineral deposit locations are available. Output is on an ink jet plotter and lamination of maps is recommended where outside use is envisaged. Price: $11 (lamination $11 extra) Source25 This data set records the source of the geological data, reliability information and the geologists responsible for compiling the information. These data are supplied with the 1:250 000 scale digital data set.
