General Cultural Area - NSW Features of Interest Category - GDA2020 Service

Export Data Access APINEWWe 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.General Cultural Area - NSW Features of Interest Category - GDA2020 ServiceMetadata Portal Metadata InformationContent TitleGeneral Cultural Area - NSW Features of Interest Category - GDA2020 ServiceContent TypeHosted Feature LayerDescriptionGeneral Cultural Area is a man-made polygon feature defining general cultural data feature types.Feature Types in this layer include:Building Area:Dwelling - A main place of residence. This polygon feature dataset is part of the Physiography Category. Where possible, polygon geometries of the building dwelling dataset align to the topographic and cadastral databases.Pondage:Swimming Pool - An enclosed or artificial pool for swimming in for public use. This does not include domestic swimming pools.Settling Pond - Shallow beds, usually segmented by constructed walls, for the treatment of sewage or other wastes.Water Filtration Bed - Shallow beds, usually segmented by constructed walls, for the treatment of water.Restricted Area - A restricted area designated for defense purposes.Initial Publication Date07/02/02020Data 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). For current information go to spatial.nsw.gov.auData Theme, Classification or Relationship to other DatasetsNSW Features of Interest Category.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 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: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 SpecificationOpen Geospatial Consortium (OGC) implemented and compatible for consumption by common GIS platforms.
