Please
Note
WGS 84 service aligned to GDA94
This 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 Administrative Boundaries Theme - Mines Subsidence DistrictContent TypeHosted Feature LayerDescriptionNSW Parish is a dataset within the Administrative Boundaries Theme of the FSDF. It contains 7,459 administrative areas (Parishes) formed by the division of 141 counties. Counties and parishes are administrative divisions of the state and are not separately disposable land parcels. County and Parish are historical layers and the information contained on these layers was gathered from Parish and County maps which are now held at State Records (digital versions can be accessed through the Historical Lands Records Viewer). However, they can be updated (if necessary) after a title inspection.Parishes are divided into separately land parcels called “portions”, these being the common basic units of land disposed of by the Crown (sold), held in occupation (leased) or reserved for public purposes. Other basic units are section and allotments in Towns and Villages. The dataset contains county and parish names. Any changes that occur to the dataset should have a reference in the authority of reference feature class in the lot and property data sets.Features are positioned in topological alignment within the extents of the land and property polygons for each county and are held in alignment, including changes resulting cadastral maintenance and upgrades. NSW Parish is a subset of NSW County.This dataset contains an historical land administration boundary. The original Parish definition is static, however, data will move with changes to the Land Parcel and Property theme.Initial Publication Date05/02/2020Data Currency01/01/3000Data Update FrequencyOtherContent SourceData provider filesFile TypeESRI File Geodatabase (*.gdb)Attribution©

dataset maintains a positional relationship to, and alignment with, the
Lot and Property digital datasets. 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:4326WGS84 Equivalent ToGDA94Spatial 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

by common GIS platforms. Available as either cache or non-cache,
depending on client use or requirement.Information about the
Feature Class and Domain Name descriptions for the NSW Administrative
Boundaries Theme can be found in the NSW Cadastral Data Dictionary.Some
of Spatial Services Datasets are designed to work together for example
NSW Address Point and NSW Address String (table), NSW Property (Polygon)
and NSW Property Lot (table) and NSW Lot (polygons). To do this you
need to add a Spatial Join.A Spatial Join is a GIS operation
that affixes data from one feature layer’s attribute table to another
from a spatial perspective.To see how NSW Address, Property, Lot Geometry data and tables can be spatially joined, download the Data Model Document.
