Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The data are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. This NSW Coonabarabran first vertical derivative magnetic grid geodetic is a first vertical derivative of the Total Magnetic Intensity grid for the Coonabarabran Airborne Magnetic Radiometric and DEM Survey, NSW, 2017. This grid has a cell size of 0.00045 degrees (approximately 47m). The grid has units of nanoTesla per km (or nT/km). The data used to produce the TMI grid was acquired in 2017 by the NSW Government, and consisted of 50961 line-kilometres of data at 250m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance. A Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) process was applied to the original grid to calculate the first vertical derivative grid.
