NSW Base Map Web Service GDA2020
GDA2020 Cached Map Tile service - See GDA2020
Web Services Information Sheet and GDA2020
Raster FAQ This Cached Map Tile service is published with a spatial reference
of WGS 84-aligned-to-GDA2020). For users who require a [WGS
84-aligned-to-GDA94] service the original NSW Base Map Web Serviceis still available.Disclaimer: This Cached Map Tile service is created directly from the GDA94
Cached Map Tile service by simply shifting pixels by a distance equivalent to
the GDA94 > NTv2-CPD > GDA2020 transformation. This shift must be a whole
number of pixels. As a result, where raster tiles are provided at
low-resolution, the display location may differ from true GDA2020 location. For
example, a tile at ‘zoom level 18’, with 60 cm pixel resolution, may appear
offset from GDA2020 by ~30cm.Metadata Portal Metadata Information
Content TitleNSW Base MapContent TypeBasemapDescriptionThe NSW Base Map web service depicts a map of NSW using layers from the Digital Topographic Database, the Geocoded Urban and Rural Addressing System database and the Digital Cadastral Database.This includes:roadspoints of interestlocalitieslandformdrainagecultural dataparks and forestsproperty boundariesstreet address numbers.Web service uses/fitness for purpose This web service allows users to easily integrate a NSW base map into Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) compliant spatial platforms and applications. This web service provides an ideal base map depicting a combined view of NSW Foundation Spatial Information for use within spatial applications and systems. Current State This web service is current and complete. Update frequency As required. Future development This web service is updated when new information has been captured or sourced by DFSI Spatial Services. Standards and specifications OGC compliant and suitable for consumption by common GIS platforms. This dataset is compliant with the NSW Foundation Spatial Data Framework and its specifications.Information Sheet (FSDS)Initial Publication Date31/07/2019Data Currency01/01/3000Data Update FrequencyOtherContent SourceOtherFile TypeMap Feature ServiceAttribution© State of New South Wales (Spatial Services, a business unit of the Department of Customer Service NSW). For current information go to spatial.nsw.gov.auData Theme, Classification or Relationship to other DatasetsThe NSW Base Map is made up from elements from NSW Administrative Boundaries, Land Parcel Property, Water, Transport and Geocoded Address Themes as well as Features of Interest and Physiography Categories of the Foundation Spatial Data Framework (FSDF) Boundaries.AccuracyThe dataset maintains a positional relationship to, and alignment with, a range of themes from the NSW FSDF including, transport, imagery, positioning, water and land cover. 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:3857WGS84 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 SpecificationOpen Geospatial Consortium (OGC) implemented and compatible for consumption by common GIS platforms.
