NEW

We have released a new GDA2020 version of our Foundational Spatial Data Framework (FSDF) datasets 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.

NSW Transport Theme - GDA2020 Service

Metadata Portal Metadata Information

Content Title	NSW Transport Theme - GDA2020 Service
Content Type	Hosted Feature Layer
Description	The Transport theme data is a representation of the land, water and air networks used to move people and goods, and deliver services, from one location to another. It includes network connectivity and characteristics such as type, name and potential restrictions on what can be moved through the network. Data included in the Transport theme: Roads Road Segment Road Associated Structures Road Associated Facilities Aviation Airports Runway Helipads Rail Railway Rail Associated Structure Rail associated facilities Maritime Maritime Associated Facilities Other Transport Category Data Aggregated Way Aggregated Way Segment Cableway - Ski Lift Classified Fire Trail Ferry route - Vehicular ferry Railway - Heavy Rail, Heavy Rail Siding, Light Rail, Monorail Road Name Extent Road Segment Crossing - Rail Bridge, Rail Tunnel, Rail Culvert, Road Bridge, Tunnel, Floodway, Road Culvert, Ford Traffic Control Device – Cattle Grid, Roundabout, Gate, Impediment, Level Crossing, Toll Booth Runway Transport Facility Line – Wharf, Launching Ramp Transport Facility Point – Parking Area, Marina, Railway Station, Helipad, Roadside Rest Area, Roadside Emergency Telephone, Airport, Bus Interchange, Heavy Vehicle Check Station Transport data is used for: Delivering emergency services Mapping, charting and navigation Planning for and delivering resources and services Asset management Infrastructure planning and development The public road network is continuously maintained using information provided by the state and local government road authorities, the land registration process, latest available imagery and other source information available. Roads, access tracks and fire trails data within the forest, park and reserve crown estate is maintained using data supplied by relevant custodial agencies. Private property roads and tracks are cyclically maintained using latest available imagery. Other features within the transport theme such as railways, ferry, aviation, crossings and traffic control devices are derived from a range of sources over time. Spatial Services will be the reliable source of truth for this Foundation theme, providing a complete, current and accurate coverage of NSW. The objective is to integrate the best available data and undertake continuous revision to meet the requirements of key data users. The NSW Transport theme roads data complies with most of the National Roads Working Group requirements. Continuous improvement to the data model and data content will further ensure the broader objectives are met. Transport theme data will be enhanced by systematic improvement to the rail, water navigation and aviation data networks and infrastructure.

Data Theme, Classification or Relationship to other Datasets	NSW Transport Theme of the Foundation Spatial Data Framework (FSDF)
Accuracy	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.
