Northeast Pilbara GIS teaching package (byte data and real data grids)
Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
Outcrop geology was obtained directly from the following 1:250 000 map sheets: Marble Bar, Nullagine, Port Hedland and Yarrie.
This dataset consists of both raster and vector data. Raster data which is unsigned 8 bit integer, can be viewed in Arc/Info,
ArcView, MapInfo, ERMapper, ERViewer and ArcExplorer. Raster data which is 4 byte real data, can only be viewed and manipulated
with an image processing package such as ERMapper.

Title Northeast Pilbara GIS teaching package (byte data and real data grids)
Original data was captured at 1:25,000 scale and published at 1:250 000 scale. This data was scanned and digitised with Intergraph
software and then imported into Arc/Info software. Due to poor topographic bases from original data it was decided to adjust
the solid geology lines to better fit the landsat image which was a more accurate example of the geology.
