Spatial data
Spatial data describes the shape and location of real world objects such as survey marks, natural resources, buildings, physical landscape and administrative factors such as land parcels, street addresses and local government areas.
Digital spatial data is a vital tool for people who need information on land, the environment, transport, communications, utility services, demography and socio-economic factors.
A range of data is available including cadastral, topographic, aerial photography, survey and purpose-built data sets.
