EFTF Upper Darling Floodplain Downhole and surface geophysics data release

Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

This dataset comprises borehole induction conductivity, natural gamma, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) datasets, and surface magnetic resonance (SMR) data collected as part of the Upper Darling Floodplain groundwater study. Associated methods, interpretation, and integration with other datasets are found in the Upper Darling Floodplain geological and hydrogeological assessment (Geoscience Australia Ecat ID:149689). This project is part of the Exploring for the Future (EFTF) program, an eight-year, $225 million Australian Government funded geoscience data and precompetitive information acquisition program. The dataset contains induction conductivity logs and natural gamma logs for 23 bores, NMR logs for 22 bores, and SMR data for 47 sites. The properties inferred from these datasets for hydrogeological characterisation include water content and porosity (borehole NMR and SMR), lithology (natural gamma), and bulk electrical conductivity (induction conductivity).
