Tanumbirini SE53-02: 1:250,000 Scale Digital Topographic Map of Australia

AUSTopo - Australian Digital Topographic Map Series comprises 516 maps covering the entire continent of Australia at a scale of 1:250,000. Each standard map sheet covers an area of approximately 1.5 degrees longitude by 1 degree latitude, showing natural and constructed features including infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, and contours. The data is provided by Geoscience Australia and was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Terrain analysis and elevation modeling based on 50-meter contour intervals.
• Infrastructure planning and routing based on road and rail network data.
• Environmental and land cover studies based on vegetation and hydrography features.
• Geographic reference and boundary delineation based on administrative boundaries and localities.

Strengths

• Covers the entire continent of Australia with 516 map sheets, providing national coverage.
• Represents the largest scale (1:250,000) at which published topographic maps cover the entire continent.
• Each standard map sheet covers a defined area of approximately 150 km east-west and at least 110 km north-south.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for quantitative analysis.
