Description

The Geocoded Urban and Rural Addressing System (GURAS) is a \u2018property\u2019 based address database. Each property polygon captured within GURAS has a unique numeric identifier and contains at least one authoritative address which is sourced from local councils via the valuation of land database, also managed by LPI-Valnet. Properties may contain more than one address sourced from various other organisations.

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.

\u00a0Address 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. Owners 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 helps eliminate the costly duplication of efforts where local councils, Australia Post, emergency service organizations, and other agencies and businesses previously\u00a0maintained individual address databases with different creation and distribution regimes.

Geocoded Addressing Data Theme includes the following feature classes:

Waypoint -\u00a0A WayPoint is a point located on the RoadSegment feature class for an address where the road naming attributes from both the AddressString and the RoadSegment classes are identical. Indicates the approximate entry point of for an address.

Address Point -\u00a0A point feature class used to spatially locate an address / address string

The Address Point Layer includes the below subtypes:

  • Building
  • Homestead
  • Monument
  • Property
  • Unit/Strata
  • Other

Pro Way -\u00a0A Proway is a line that spatially connects the AddressPoint and WayPoint.

The Pro Way Layer includes the following subtypes:

  • Right
  • Left
  • Other

Data Theme, Classification or Relationship to other DatasetsNSW Geocoded Addressing Theme of the Foundation Spatial Data Framework (FSDF)
AccuracyThis dataset was captured by 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.\u00a0\u00a0A program to upgrade the spatial location and accuracy of data is ongoing.
