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.
Fuzzy Extent Water Line - NSW Water Theme - GDA2020 Service
Metadata Portal Metadata Information
Content TitleFuzzy Extent Water Line - NSW Water Theme - GDA2020 ServiceContent TypeHosted Feature LayerDescriptionFuzzy Extent Water Line is a feature class representing the approximate centreline of formally named water features that have relatively indistinct named extent.Features within Fuzzy Extent Water Line include:
- Riverlike - a named river-like feature of indefinite name extent, which includes GNB designations: Anabranch, Arm, Bend, Canal, Channel, Cowal, Passage, Reach, River Bend, River Feature, and Strait that have not been represented by another hydrographic feature class.
Water security is one of Australia’s major challenges. Key users of the hydrology data are NSW State and Local Government agencies as well as Federal Government agencies. These bodies use this data to better manage State and Local Government assets.This hydrology data provides the NSW component of the Australian Hydrological Geospatial Fabric which is a critical input to the Australian Water Resources Information System.More widespread use of the hydrology data is also found in emergency management response and recovery efforts, hazard mitigation or disaster risk reduction, climate change, natural resource assessment, environmental planning and monitoring, insurance, mining and agriculture.Initial Publication Date06/02/2020Data Currency01/01/3000Data Update FrequencyOtherContent SourceData provider filesFile TypeESRI File Geodatabase (*.gdb)Attribution©

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
