AUS GeoRegions 5M

This data set is a classification of the Australian continent into 2-dimensional surface regions (Shaw et al, 1998). A geological region is a relatively large geographical area with a cohesive, albeit in some cases complex, geological assemblage (Bain and Draper 1997, AGSO Bulletin 240); significantly different in overall geology from the adjoining regions, and differs from a geological province in that it does not include depth or time dimensions.
