Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

Topographic map data at varying scales used for aeronautical charting, public safety and emergency management, state and federal government, research and industry development. Georeferenced, attributed, GIS vector and scanned image or PDF format data of topographic map information at scales ranging from 1:100 000 to 1:10 000 000. The data include the following themes: Hydrography - drainage networks including watercourses, lakes, wetlands and offshore features; Infrastructure - systems for the transportation of goods and services, ie. roads, railways and associated structures, along with localities, built-up areas and aeronautical features so that these services may be located; and Relief - a series of spot elevations, chosen so as to give a representative picture of the terrain. The topographic map and data index gives coverage information.
