NSW Transport Theme

    Access APINSW Transport ThemePlease Note WGS 84 = GDA94 serviceThis dataset has a spatial reference of [WGS 84 = GDA94] and can NOT be easily consumed into GDA2020 environments. A similar service with a ‘multiCRS’ suffix is available which can support GDA2020, GDA94 and WGS84 = GDA2020 environments. In due course, and allowing time for user feedback and testing, it is intended that these original services will adopt the new multiCRS functionally.The Transport theme data is a representation of the land, water and air networks used to move people and goods, and deliver services, from one location to another. It includes network connectivity and characteristics such as type, name and potential restrictions on what can be moved through the network.Data included in the Transport theme:Roads·    Road Segment·    Road Associated Structures·    Road Associated Facilities Aviation·    Airports·    Runway·    Helipads Rail·    Railway·    Rail Associated Structure·    Rail associated facilities Maritime·    Maritime Associated FacilitiesOther Transport Category Data·    Aggregated Way·    Aggregated Way Segment·    Cableway - Ski Lift·    Classified Fire Trail·    Ferry route - Vehicular ferry·    Railway - Heavy Rail, Heavy Rail Siding, Light Rail, Monorail·    Road Name Extent·    Road Segment·    Crossing - Rail Bridge, Rail Tunnel, Rail Culvert, Road Bridge, Tunnel, Floodway, Road Culvert, Ford·    Traffic Control Device – Cattle Grid, Roundabout, Gate, Impediment, Level Crossing, Toll Booth·    Runway ·    Transport Facility Line – Wharf, Launching Ramp·    Transport Facility Point – Parking Area, Marina, Railway Station, Helipad, Roadside Rest Area, Roadside Emergency   Telephone, Airport, Bus Interchange, Heavy Vehicle Check StationTransport data is used for:·    Delivering emergency services·    Mapping, charting and navigation·    Planning for and delivering resources and services·    Asset management·    Infrastructure planning and developmentThe public road network is continuously maintained using information provided by the state and local government road authorities, the land registration process, latest available imagery and other source information available.

Roads, access tracks and fire trails data within the forest, park and reserve crown estate is maintained using data supplied by relevant custodial agencies. 

Private property roads and tracks are cyclically maintained using latest available imagery.

Other features within the transport theme such as railways, ferry, aviation, crossings and traffic control devices are derived from a range of sources over time.

Spatial Services will be the reliable source of truth for this Foundation theme, providing a complete, current and accurate coverage of NSW. The objective is to integrate the best available data and undertake continuous revision to meet the requirements of key data users.

The NSW Transport theme roads data complies with most of the National Roads Working Group requirements. Continuous improvement to the data model and data content will further ensure the broader objectives are met.

Transport theme data will be enhanced by systematic improvement to the rail, water navigation and aviation data networks and infrastructure.MetadataType  Esri Feature Service   Update Frequency  As required   Contact Details  Contact us via the Spatial Services Customer HubRelationship to Themes and Datasets  Transport Theme of the Foundation Spatial Data Framework (FSDF)  Accuracy The 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 of positional upgrade (accuracy improvement) is currently underway.  Spatial Reference System (dataset) Geocentric Datum of Australia 1994 (GDA94), Australian Height Datum (AHD)  Spatial Reference System    (web service)  EPSG 4326: WGS84 Geographic 2D  WGS84 Equivalent To GDA94  Spatial Extent  Full state  Standards and Specifications  Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) implemented and compatible for consumption by common GIS platforms.
