Full description

The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
This Australia-Wide Airborne Geophysical Survey 2 (AWAGS2), 2007 (P1152), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled were acquired in 2007 by Geoscience Australia at 75000m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance.
