The Siding Spring Southern Seyfert Spectroscopic Snapshot Survey (S7) is providing integral field spectroscopy over a field of 38×25 arcsec for ~140 nearby active galaxies. The data cover the wavelength region 3300-7000Å at resolutions as high as 7000. In this talk, I present the first results of this survey. I will show how, by combining our data analysis with detailed photoionisation and shock modelling, we are gaining a new understanding of the physics of both Seyfert and LINER galaxies.
