Bencubbin SH50-11: 1:250,000 Scale Australian Topographic Map

A 1:250,000 scale digital topographic map covering the Bencubbin area of Australia, part of the AUSTopo series. The series comprises 516 standard maps covering the entire continent, with each sheet covering approximately 1.5 by 1 degree. It is produced by Geoscience Australia and contains natural and constructed features including roads, vegetation, hydrography, and 50-meter contours.

Use Cases

• Terrain analysis and elevation modeling based on 50-meter contour intervals
• Infrastructure planning and routing based on road and rail network data
• Land cover and feature identification based on vegetation and hydrography layers
• Geographic reference and boundary checking based on administrative boundaries and localities

Strengths

• Covers the entire Australian continent at its largest published topographic scale
• Series comprises 516 standard maps ensuring consistent national coverage
• Includes multiple coordinate datums (GDA94, GDA2020) and projections (UTM)

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
