Changes: Converted by OpenDataRouter from Geoscience Australia's earthquake web feature service into a typed table with one row per earthquake located in Australia. Only the fields listed in the schema are carried (GA's free-text description and its request-time fields are not), and events whose source names a seismograph network other than Geoscience Australia's are left out. Values unchanged.
