Administrative Boundaries

Administrative areas have boundaries that are linked to the State’s cadastral and tenure data boundaries on the Spatial Cadastral Database (SCDB) and therefore carry the same point/line accuracies. They include Local Governments, Local Government Wards, Localities/Suburbs, Townsites, Land Districts, Port Authorities, Marine Parks and Reserves, Infrastructure Corridors, Water Control Areas, State Forests, Native Title Claims, and State Electoral Districts and Regions.

Further administrative areas are to be added, such as Rail Freight line Corridors, Marine Harbours and Ports, and Heritage Areas. Apart from applying directly to land administration, they also provide a useful tool in identifying potential “areas of interest” for cadastral data extraction and demographic studies. The data is updated on a daily basis ensuring very reliable datasets.
