Re: [talk-au] suburb boundaries import

The Dept of Lands database was said to be 94% correct in 2007 and improving. Most of their errors relate to the house numbers on a street, and I would assume that their suburb boundaries are correct. This data should take precendence over ABS data. Regards, Narelle. 2009/3/8 Franc Carter

Hi. 2009/3/8 Franc Carter franc.car...@gmail.com I assumed it is copyrighted however, so not a valid source for OSM ;-( Yes I agree. Given the complicated nature of the boundary in this area (according to the Lands dept) I don't think copying their data without permission is a good idea (and

Hi. For NSW the Lands Department's Geospatial Portal http://gsp.maps.nsw.gov.au/ can show suburb boundaries in the cadastral layer. Of the area in question, where the ABS shows the boundary going neatly down the middle of my street, the NSW Lands Department shows the boundary between 1 street

Re: [talk-au] suburb boundaries import
