Milingimbi Special Topographic Map at 1:250,000 Scale

Australia is covered by 516 topographic maps at a 1:250,000 scale, with approximately 50 special maps covering non-standard areas. Geoscience Australia produced this digital map series, which includes features like infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, and contours. The data was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing road and rail infrastructure coverage for regional transport planning.
• Mapping vegetation and hydrography features for ecological studies.
• Using 50-meter contour intervals for terrain analysis and elevation modeling.
• Identifying localities and administrative boundaries for demographic or governance research.

Strengths

• 516 maps covering the entire continent of Australia.
• Contour intervals specified at 50 meters for elevation data.
• Coordinates provided in Geographical, MGA, GDA94, GDA2020, and AHD datums.

Limitations

• Specific row count and dataset size are unknown.
• Data is provided only in PDF format, limiting direct computational analysis.
• The map may contain information from surrounding sheets, potentially complicating precise area delineation.
