Re: [talk-au] Why set coast line to nation park or, administrative boundaries?

Don't know if this helps. or makes it worse!

Had a thought so looked at Gold Coast Council's online city plan, where I
know that a National Park touches the shore:
https://cityplan.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/eplan/property/41NPW429/0/184?_t=property
compared to what we have
https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=18/-28.09018/153.45895

Darker green on Council map is NP, bright green is Council Public Open
Space, patch of ocean is Council "ground", which we show as being within
the Admin Boundary of Gold Coast City based on PSMA Admin Boundaries, but
which is also "outside" the Australian "coastline"?

Other spots on the GC show similar, in that there is a discrepancy, & often
an overlap, between Council & State boundaries.

Thanks

Graeme

Exactly. So if anything we should be actively snapping them.



Are there any links to these boundaries linked to the high water mark???


I would have though that CAPAD data would be accurate as it should come 
from the National Parks people using the gazette.



My trove searches only turned up low water mark stuff - but I only 
looked in NSW.
