Tobermorey SF53-12: Australian Topographic Map at 1:250,000 Scale

Geoscience Australia Data publishes the Tobermorey SF53-12 map as part of the AUSTopo - Australian Digital Topographic Map Series. The series comprises 516 standard maps covering the entire continent at a scale of 1:250,000, with each sheet covering approximately 150 by 110 kilometers. The map was last updated on 2026-03-25 and contains natural and constructed features including roads, rail, vegetation, hydrography, and 50-meter contours.

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 verification based on administrative boundaries and localities.

Strengths

• Covers the entire continent of Australia at its largest published topographic scale.
• Series comprises 516 standard maps, each covering a consistent area of approximately 150 by 110 kilometers.
• Includes a wide range of features such as infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, 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 computational analysis.
