NSW Physiography Category

Export Data Access APINSW Physiography Category Please NoteWGS 84 service aligned to GDA94This 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 Physiography Category Content TypeHosted Feature LayerDescriptionPhysiography Category represents a list of classes for topographic features whose primary characteristics relate to land surface or landform. This theme includes the following feature classes:Contours see NSW Elevation ThemeDistinctive Land Surface - represents areas of discrete land surface classified as:DLSAreaIntertidal FlatDLSLine LeveeDLSPointReefFuzzy Extent - features representing the approximate location of formally named landforms that have relatively indistinct name extent and are represented as points, lines and polygonsFuzzyExtentAreaDune Like (including Dune, Sandhill and Sandridge)Flat Like (including Flat, Plain, River Flat and Terrace)General PlaceLandcover LikePeninsula LikePlateau LikeSlope LikeSwamp LikePromontory LikeValley LikeFuzzyExtentLineBeach Dune LikeGeneral LocalityRange LikeValley LikeFuzzyExtentPointBeach Flat LikeGeneral LocalityHeadland LikeGap LikeIsland Like (including island and inlet)Landcover Like (including Clearing, Desert, Moor and Scrub)Mountain LikePeninsula Like (including Cape, Peninsula and Spit)Plateau Like (including Mesa, Plateau and Tableland)Sandbar LikeSlope Like (including Buttress, Cliff, Escarpment, Fault, Gradient, Rock Face, Slope and Steeps)Valley LikePromontory LikeInitial Publication Date05/02/2020Data 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).

This dataset was captured by digitising the best available cadastral mapping 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 ToOnce published the WGS84 service can be aligned to other projections.GDA94Spatial ExtentFull StateXMin: 1.5694266141500004E7YMin: -4510165.416700002XMax: 1.77282832552E7YMax: -3264832.7967000008Spatial Reference: 102100 (3857)Content 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 CommonStandard and SpecificationOpen Geospatial Consortium (OGC) implemented and compatible for consumption by common GIS platforms.
