Bicentennial National Trail Alignment Through Australian Capital Territory

Polyline data identifies the alignment of Australia's 5,330-kilometer Bicentennial National Trail as it passes through the Australian Capital Territory. The dataset was created by Greg Tankard for the ACT Government Open Data and was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Map the trail's polyline alignment for recreational planning and GIS visualization in the ACT region.
• Integrate the trail polyline with other spatial datasets for land-use and conservation analysis.
• Use the polyline data to calculate distances or intersections with other infrastructure features in the territory.

Strengths

• Focuses on a specific, well-defined 5,330-kilometer national trail.
• Provides authoritative polyline data from a government source (ACT Government Open Data).
• Dataset was updated in March 2026, indicating recent maintenance.

Limitations

• Limited geographic scope, covering only the Australian Capital Territory segment of the full trail.
• Dataset lacks attribute details like elevation, surface type, or points of interest.
• Sample data and specific technical specifications (rows, columns, format) are unavailable for review.
