Geocoded Addressing
Theme - Address Point
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 Geocoded Addressing Theme - Address PointContent TypeHosted Feature LayerDescriptionThe
Geocoded Urban and Rural Addressing System (GURAS) is a ‘property’
based address database. The GURAS
database is commonly used by all levels of government for emergency
services, computer aided dispatch systems, postal and delivery services,
and to identify location.Address points are generally system
generated points and do not always have a direct correlation to the
dwelling location. In circumstances where there are multiple disparate
lots for one property, particularly in rural addresses, the system
generated address points may not reside within the correct property
polygon. Owner's names are not part of the GURAS database, nor does
GURAS contain any personal information.The Geocoded Addressing
Theme is a single source of truth for address information in NSW, GURAS
eliminates the costly duplication of effort where all local councils,
Australia Post, emergency service organisations and other agencies and
businesses maintained individual address databases with different
creation and distribution regimes.Address Point - A point feature class used to spatially locate an address / address stringThe Address Point Layer includes the below sub types:BuildingHomesteadMonumentPropertyUnit/StrataOtherInitial Publication Date14/02/2020Data Currency01/01/3000Data Update FrequencyOtherContent SourceData provider filesFile TypeESRI File Geodatabase (*.gdb)Attribution©

utilising the best available source 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 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

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 Address, Property and Lot Geometry data and Tables can be joined together download the Data Model Document. This will show what attributes in the datasets can be linked.Data CustodianDCS Spatial Services346 Panorama AveBathurst NSW 2795Point of ContactPlease contact us via the Spatial Services Customer HubData AggregatorDCS Spatial Services346 Panorama AveBathurst NSW 2795Data DistributorDCS Spatial Services346 Panorama AveBathurst NSW 2795Additional Supporting InformationData DictionariesTRIM Number
