Note: 3D VRML model is no longer supported
This 4th version of the Tanami 3D model covers a 200 km x 200 km area of the Tanami Region and Arunta Inlier (Aileron Province). This model consists of a series of 3D surfaces of major geological elements ranging from relatively shallow cover sequences, down to the Moho. The 3D surfaces were constructed using 3D GeoModeller and combines the interpreted seismic data from the 2005 Tanami Seismic Collaborative Research Project, with geological mapping, interpreted solid geology maps, and gravity and magnetic data. Elements of the model have been tested by gravity forward modelling.
Geographic extent
Tanami Region, Northern Territory-Western Australia.
