NSW Transport Theme: Transport Service Locations

NSW Transport Theme – Transport Services is a point feature dataset from Spatial Services (DCS) representing key transport infrastructure locations in New South Wales, Australia. It includes airports, train stations, and bus interchange stations. The dataset is available as an ArcGIS REST service but is scheduled for retirement in its current GDA94-aligned version.

Use Cases

• Mapping airport locations for regional accessibility analysis.
• Identifying train station positions for public transit network planning.
• Locating bus interchange stations for multi-modal transport studies.
• Spatial analysis of transport facility distribution across NSW.

Strengths

• Sourced from an authoritative government agency (Spatial Services, DCS).
• Explicitly includes multiple transport facility types (airports, train stations, bus interchanges).
• Available via a live API (ArcGIS REST FeatureServer).

Limitations

• The dataset's spatial reference (WGS 84 ≈ GDA94) may cause misalignment in GDA2020 environments.
• The primary service is marked as 'RETIRING' and scheduled for replacement.
• No column names, row counts, or specific license information are provided in the sources.
