Glenormiston Topographic Map at 1:250,000 Scale

AUSTopo's Glenormiston SF54-09 is a digital topographic map from a 516-map series covering Australia at a 1:250,000 scale. It shows natural and constructed features including road and rail infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, and 50-meter contours. The map is projected in UTM with coordinates in GDA94, GDA2020, and AHD datums.

Use Cases

• Extract road and rail infrastructure features for regional transportation network analysis.
• Analyze hydrography and 50-meter contour intervals for watershed and terrain modeling.
• Identify vegetation coverage and administrative boundaries for land-use planning.
• Georeference map features using UTM projection and GDA94/GDA2020 coordinates for GIS integration.

Strengths

• Part of a 516-map series providing continent-wide coverage of Australia.
• Contains multiple feature layers including infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, and contours.
• Provides coordinates in three modern datums: GDA94, GDA2020, and AHD.

Limitations

• Data is provided only in PDF format, requiring extraction for structured geospatial analysis.
• Map may contain information from surrounding sheets, potentially complicating precise boundary analysis.
• The series includes about 50 non-standard area maps, which may have inconsistent sheet layouts.
