ACT Class B Unit Boundaries From Registered Plans

Class B Units represent surveyed footprints of residential or commercial units on the ground in the Australian Capital Territory. The data is continuously maintained by the ACT Government based on registered Unit Plans and computed design to fit within survey control. Author Greg Tankard last updated the dataset in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze spatial relationships between unit boundaries and land parcels for urban planning.
• Validate the mathematical fit of unit boundaries within established survey control networks.
• Track changes in unit footprints over time as new registered Unit Plans are submitted.

Strengths

• Data is continuously maintained based on registered Unit Plans, ensuring ongoing relevance.
• Unit boundaries are defined by a surveyed line, providing a precise spatial footprint.
• All data is based on computed design to fit mathematically within survey control, ensuring geometric accuracy.

Limitations

• Specific quantitative details like row count, column names, and file formats are unknown.
• The dataset's spatial coverage is limited to the Australian Capital Territory, not nationally representative.
