NEW

We have released a new GDA2020 version of this dataset which replaces the current GDA94 version. This updated service aligns our spatial data with the national standard, improving accuracy, consistency, and compatibility with modern positioning technologies.

The previous service will remain available during the transition period as GDA94 services are retired, but users are encouraged to move to the new GDA2020 service as soon as practical.

Content TitleFuzzy Extent Area - NSW Physiography Category - GDA2020 ServiceContent TypeHosted Feature LayerDescriptionFuzzy Extent Area is a polygon feature class defining the approximate extent of formally named landforms that have relatively indistinct name extent.Data in Fuzzy Extent Category includes:Dune Like - A named dune-like landform, which includes GNB designations: Dune, Sandhill & SandridgeFlat Like - A named flat-like landform, which includes GNB designations: Flat, Plain, River Flat & Terrace.General Place - A formally named general locality or place of indistinct extent not readily classified by a more specific feature classification.Landcover like - A named landcover land surface, which includes GNB designations: Clearing, Desert, Moor & Scrub.Peninsula Like - A named peninsula-like landform, which includes GNB designations: Cape, Peninsula and Spit.Plateau Like - A named plateau-like landform, which includes GNB designations: Mesa, Plateau and Tableland.Slope Like - A named slope-like landform, which includes GNB designations: Buttress, Cliff, Escarpment, Fault, Gradient, Rock Face, Slope & Steeps.Swamp Like - A named swamp-like landform, which includes GNB designations: Swamp and Marsh. Some swamp-like features may be held as Swamp-Wet or Swamp-Dry subtypes of the DLS Area feature class.Valley Like - Named valley-like landform, includes GNB designations: Amphitheatre, Basin, Bend, Canyon, Chasm, Crater, Cutting, Depression, Glen, Gorge, Gulf, Gullies, Hole, Ravine, Sink & Valley.Promontory Like - A named promontory-like landform.Initial Publication Date07/02/2020Data Currency01/01/3000Data Update FrequencyOtherContent SourceData provider filesFile TypeESRI File Geodatabase (*.gdb)Attribution© State of New South Wales (Spatial Services, a business unit of the Department of Customer Service NSW).

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:7844WGS84 Equivalent ToGDA2020Spatial 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 Specification Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) implemented and compatible for consumption by common GIS platforms.
