Kennedy Range Topographic Map at 1:250,000 Scale

AUSTopo 1:250,000 digital map covers the Kennedy Range area within a national series of 516 maps. It depicts natural and constructed features including road and rail infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, and 50-meter contours. The map is produced by Geoscience Australia using the Universal Transverse Mercator projection.

Use Cases

• Extract road and rail infrastructure features for regional transportation network analysis.
• Analyze hydrography and 50-meter contour data for watershed modeling and terrain assessment.
• Use vegetation and locality data for land cover classification and environmental studies.

Strengths

• Part of a standardized national series covering the entire continent of Australia with 516 maps.
• Contains multiple feature layers including infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, and administrative boundaries.
• Provides geographic coordinates in both GDA94 and GDA2020 datums for spatial accuracy.

Limitations

• Data is provided only in PDF format, requiring extraction for quantitative geospatial analysis.
• Map may contain information from surrounding sheets, potentially complicating precise area-of-interest isolation.
• The 1:250,000 scale limits the granularity of detail for high-resolution applications.
