NSW Administrative Boundaries Theme – State Electoral District
Please
Note
WGS 84 service
aligned to GDA94
This dataset has spatial reference [WGS 84 ≈ GDA94] which may result in
misalignments when viewed in GDA2020 environments. A similar service with a
‘multiCRS’ suffix is available which can support GDA2020, GDA94 and WGS 84 ≈
GDA2020 environments.
In due course, and allowing time for user feedback and testing, it is intended
that the original service name will adopt the new multiCRS functionality.
Metadata Portal Metadata InformationContent TitleNSW Administrative Boundaries Theme - State Electoral DistrictContent TypeHosted Feature LayerDescriptionNSW State Electoral District is a dataset within the NSW Administrative boundaries theme (FSDF). It represents current NSW electoral boundaries which were formalised in the 2021 electoral redistribution and enacted in the 2023 NSW state election.The Electoral District Boundary aligns to, or is relevant to, the cadastral line data or topographic data features which form, by definition, the boundaries between adjoining electorates.The Electoral Commission NSW is responsible for this dataset. Any changes that occur to the dataset should have a reference in the authority of reference feature class in the Administrative boundaries theme.Spatial Services maintain this dataset relative to the NSW Digital Cadastral Dataset. That is, if cadastral boundaries are upgraded to better align to property boundaries shown on original survey plans, State Electoral Districts are also moved to reflect this improved spatial accuracy.Initial Publication Date05/02/2020Data Currency01/01/3000Data Update FrequencyOtherContent SourceData provider filesFile TypeESRI File Geodatabase (*.gdb)Attribution©

dataset maintains a positional relationship to, and alignment with, the
Lot and Property digital datasets. This dataset was captured by
digitising the best available cadastral mapping at a variety of scales
and accuracies, ranging from 1:500 to 1:250 000 according to the
National Mapping Council of Australia, Standards of Map Accuracy (1975).
Therefore, the position of the feature instance will be within 0.5mm at
map scale for 90% of the well-defined points. That is, 1:500 = 0.25m,
1:2000 = 1m, 1:4000 = 2m, 1:25000 = 12.5m, 1:50000 = 25m and 1:100000 =
50m. A program to upgrade the spatial location and accuracy of data is
ongoing.Spatial Reference System (dataset)GDA94Spatial Reference System (web service)EPSG:4326WGS84 Equivalent ToGDA94Spatial ExtentFull StateContent LineageFor additional information, please contact us via the Spatial Services Customer HubData ClassificationUnclassifiedData Access PolicyOpenData QualityFor additional information, please contact us via the Spatial Services Customer HubTerms and ConditionsCreative CommonsStandard and SpecificationOpen
Geospatial Consortium (OGC) implemented and compatible for consumption
by common GIS platforms. Available as either cache or non-cache,
depending on client use or requirement.Information about the
Feature Class and Domain Name descriptions for the NSW Administrative
Boundaries Theme can be found in the NSW Cadastral Data Dictionary.Some
of Spatial Services Datasets are designed to work together for example
NSW Address Point and NSW Address String (table), NSW Property (Polygon)
and NSW Property Lot (table) and NSW Lot (polygons). To do this you
need to add a Spatial Join.A Spatial Join is a GIS operation
that affixes data from one feature layer’s attribute table to another
from a spatial perspective.To see how NSW Address, Property, Lot Geometry data and tables can be spatially joined, download the Data Model Document.
