Gravity data measures small changes in gravity due to changes in the density of rocks beneath the Earth's surface. 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 Iron Knob, Port Augusta, Whyalla - SADM Road Gravity (P196764) contains a total of 21 point data values acquired at a spacing between 4750 and 5500 metres. The data is located in SA and were acquired in 1967, under project No. 196764 for Department of Mines and Energy South Australia (SADME).
