Inorganic Geochemistry Database

The Geoscience Australia (GA) Inorganic Geochemistry database (GEOCHEM) contains chemical analyses and analytical metadata from rocks and regolith materials. The majority of analysed samples are from mapping and sampling programs in Australia by GA and its predecessor organisations (BMR, AGSO), along with a considerable collection from the Australian Antarctic Territory. A small number of analyses exist from Papua New Guinea and offshore sampling programs. The data set is currently used for internal GA consumption and is served off an application within the GA portal. As an enhancement, this data would be altered in terms of its structure adding more information out of such analyses. In addition, the data would me made compliant following GGIC standards. The data would be published within internal GA as well as to external third parties, through OGC web services viz. WMS and WFS.

澳大利亚地质调查局（Geoscience Australia, GA）无机地球化学数据库（GEOCHEM）收录了岩石与风化壳物质的化学分析数据及分析元数据。大部分分析样品来自GA及其前身机构（BMR、AGSO）在澳大利亚境内开展的地质填图与采样项目，另有大量样品采自澳大利亚南极领地，少量分析数据则来自巴布亚新几内亚及近海采样项目。该数据集目前仅面向GA内部使用，通过GA门户内的应用程序提供服务。为优化该数据集，将对其结构进行调整，补充更多源自此类分析的附加信息，并依据GGIC标准实现数据合规化。后续该数据集将通过开放地理空间联盟（Open Geospatial Consortium, OGC）网络服务（即WMS与WFS），面向GA内部及外部第三方机构发布。
