Enhanced Location Value InfrastructureS (ELVIS)

ELVIS is a cloud-based infrastructure enabling users to easily discover, select an area of interest, and immediately access large-scale products from multiple data custodians. The ELVIS infrastructure preserves the roles, recognition and responsibilities of the contributing data custodians, making all the products available in one location.

Currently the FSDF Elevaiton & Depth, and Place Names themes are delivered through this infrastructure. The ELVIS also supports GDA2020 data transformation tools for the FSDF positioning theme. 

Australian bathymetry and topography Grid 2009

In 2005 Geoscience Australia and the National Oceans Office undertook a joint project to produce a consistent, high-quality 9 arc second (0.0025° or ~250m at the equator) bathymetric grid for Australian waters. In 2009 a number of new datasets were included in an updated version of the grid. The 2009 bathymetric grid of Australia has been produced to include recently acquired datasets, and solutions to issues identified in the previous version.

Dynamic Land Cover Dataset

The Dynamic Land Cover Dataset of Australia is the first nationally consistent and thematically comprehensive land cover reference for Australia. It is the result of a collaboration between Geoscience Australia and the Australian Bureau of Agriculture and Resource Economics and Sciences, and provides a base-line for identifying and reporting on change and trends in vegetation cover and extent.

National Vegetation Information System

A range of NVIS data products are available for use on different scales. Highly detailed data is received from state and territory custodians with standard NVIS attributes, and compiled into the NVIS database. The resultant datasets are suited for use at a regional scale. Where there is agreement with the custodian, these have been made publicly available in the latest release of the NVIS.

Surface Hydrology Lines (Regional)

The Surface Hydrology Lines (Regional) dataset provides a set of related features classes to be used as the basis of the production of consistent hydrological information. This dataset contains a geometric representation of major hydrographic line elements - both natural and artificial. This dataset is the best available data supplied by Jurisdictions and aggregated by Geoscience Australia. It is intended for defining hydrological features with attributes.

National Surface Hydrology - 250K

The Surface Hydrology Lines (National) dataset presents the spatial locations of surface hydrology line features and its attributes. The dataset represents the Australia's surface hydrology at a national scale. It includes natural and man-made geographic features such as: watercourses, canals, pipelines, etc. This product presents line hydrology features with full topological connectivity and flow paths for the entire continental of Australia.
