Lagrange SE51-10: Australian Topographic Map at 1:250,000 Scale

AUSTopo - Australian Digital Topographic Map Series provides topographic coverage of the entire continent at a scale of 1:250,000. The series comprises 516 standard maps and about 50 special maps, produced by Geoscience Australia. Each standard map covers an area of approximately 1.5 degrees longitude by 1 degree latitude.

Use Cases

• Terrain analysis based on 50-meter contour intervals
• Infrastructure planning based on road and rail network data
• Environmental mapping based on vegetation and hydrography features
• Land administration studies based on included administrative boundaries

Strengths

• Covers the entire continent of Australia at its largest published topographic scale
• Comprises 516 standard maps providing systematic coverage
• Includes natural and constructed features such as infrastructure, vegetation, and contours

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Data is provided in PDF format, which may require conversion for geospatial analysis
