Clarence-Moreton Basin Hydrogeological Inventory for Groundwater Management

Australian Clarence-Moreton Basin data contains descriptive attributes for spatial groundwater features. The dataset groups information into themes including location, demographics, geology, hydrogeology, groundwater management, and land use. It was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Groundwater management planning based on hydrogeological and groundwater use attributes
• Environmental impact assessment based on land use and industry type data
• Geological research based on described sedimentary sequences and volcanic rock formations
• Surface water interaction studies based on surface water and physical geography themes

Strengths

• Thematic grouping covers 11 distinct topics including geology, hydrogeology, and land use
• Describes basin geology with specific details like a maximum sedimentary thickness of 4000 meters
• Identifies specific geological units like the Jurassic Walloon Coal Measures and Main Range Volcanics

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Data is provided in PDF format, which may hinder direct computational analysis
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
