NSW Geocoded Addressing\nTheme

Please Note:

WGS 84 service aligned to GDA94
This dataset has spatial reference [WGS 84 \u2248 GDA94] which may result in misalignments when viewed in GDA2020 environments. A similar service with a \u2018multiCRS\u2019 suffix is available which can support GDA2020, GDA94 and WGS 84 \u2248 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.

Content TitleNSW Geocoded Addressing Theme
Content TypeHosted Feature Layer
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.

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.

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 sub types:

  • 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
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. A program to upgrade the spatial location and accuracy of data is ongoing.

Information about the \u201cFeature Class\u201d and \u201cDomain Name\u201d descriptions for the NSW Administrative Boundaries Theme can be found in the\u00a0GURAS Delivery Model Data Dictionary

Some of Spatial Services Datasets are designed to work together for example \u201cNSW Address Point\u201d and \u201cNSW Address String Table\u201d, NSW Property (Polygon) and NSW Property Lot Table and NSW Lot (polygons). To do this you need to add a \u201cSpatial Join\u201d.

A\u00a0Spatial join\u00a0is a\u00a0GIS\u00a0operation that affixes data from one feature layer\u2019s\u00a0attribute table\u00a0to another from a\u00a0spatial\u00a0perspective.

To see how Address, Property and Lot Geometry data and Tables can be joined together download the\u00a0Data Model Document. This will show what attributes in the datasets can be linked.
