The data in the Australian Stratigraphic Units Database (ASUD) is mainly compiled from publications that discuss Australian rocks and their distinct properties and distributions. Defining stratigraphic units is good basic science that enhances the quality of the data that is then available for use in other projects, but many new units are introduced without a definition, limiting the quality of the data available. Members of the Australian Stratigraphy Commission work hand in hand with ASUD staff to encourage and educate geologists on how to define rocks units. Cathy and Christo discuss this education role, and the basics of defining a stratigraphic unit.
