Brisbane City Plan 2014 Waterway Corridors Overlay: Brisbane River Boundary

Brisbane City Council's official planning overlay defines the Brisbane River corridor boundary for development regulation. The dataset is part of the Brisbane City Plan 2014, which is regularly updated with amendments. It originates from the Waterway corridors overlay map (OM-023.2) and is available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Environmental impact modeling based on the protected waterway corridor area.

Strengths

Limitations
