Mapping

The mapping by the survey between 1894 and 2015 is documented in Riganti and others[2][3] with examples of state maps: -

Department of Mines: 1 January 1894 - 1 July 1992

  • 1894 - Woodward Map[4]
  • 1916 - Brockman Map[5]
  • 1919 and 1920[6]

1992 - 2000

  • 1998
  • 2015 Map

Also some sections have moved between the survey and other departments. For example, the hydrogeology section was moved to the Waters and Rivers Commission in 1996.[13]
