AGSOs Australian National Gravity Database contains data from more than 900 000 point gravity observations on the Australian mainland, over the continental margins, on the Australian Antarctic Territory, and other external territories of Australia. These data have been collected from nearly 1000 gravity surveys dating back to 1937. This repository of gravity information is a valuable national asset with importance to the mineral and petroleum exploration industries, geodesy and the international scientific community. The Australian Fundamental Gravity Network provides a consistent and accurate set of gravity control points throughout Australia and its territories. These gravity control points, which are fully documented, are spaced at intervals of roughly 150 km over the continent. Ideally, all gravity surveys conducted in Australia should be tied into this network.
