Queensland State Boundary with GDA2020 Geodetic Support

November 2019 data release provides the legal boundary for the state of Queensland, Australia. The dataset is derived from authoritative state cadastre data and is built and maintained by Geoscape Australia. It is available in both the GDA94 and newer GDA2020 geodetic datums.

Use Cases

• Clip or mask other geospatial datasets using the Queensland state boundary polygon to restrict analysis to the jurisdiction.
• Perform spatial joins with the boundary's geometry to assign a 'state' attribute to points of interest located within Queensland.
• Visualize the Queensland administrative region on maps for planning or reporting purposes using the provided polygon features.

Strengths

• Derived from authoritative government cadastre data for legal accuracy.
• Offers coordinate data in both the established GDA94 and modern GDA2020 geodetic datums.

Limitations

• The described data snapshot is from November 2019, which may not reflect minor subsequent boundary changes.
• Specific metrics like vertex count or file size are not provided in the description.
