Summary
Description
Queensland is an extensive area with a population unevenly distributed within its borders and numerous island communities in the far north. It has the highest percentage of population outside a capital city of any mainland state within Australia, and land transport is disrupted by the annual wet season in northern and western regions. The Department of Transport and Main Roads regulates and in some cases subsidises a number of regular passenger transport air services to ensure that identified transport-disadvantaged communities have year-round access to a range of essential business, educational, medical, and cultural services in larger centres, reducing the social and economic isolation of rural and remote Queenslanders.

Summary
Description
This dataset depicts the 50-year mean annual rainfall isoheyts (contours) over Queensland for the period 1920 to 1969. The dataset was produced from the mean annual rainfall of as many locations as possible including private collections. Incomplete datasets were `made whole` by calculating values for missing periods through correlation with adjacent rainfall stations.

Summary
Description
This data pack contains reliability assessment tools and guidance to assist local governments to assess the suitability of State-wide Bushfire Hazard (Bushfire Prone Area) mapping when making or amending a local planning scheme to identify state interests with regard to bushfire hazard.The reliability assessment will assist in identifying mapping issues that can be addressed by amendment of the State-wide Bushfire Prone Area mapping by the Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES), or when undertaking localised mapping. The State-wide mapping of the Bushfire Hazard Area (Bushfire Prone Area) was developed by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) in conjunction with the Queensland Fire and Emergency Service (QFES).

Description
This dataset displays the boundary of the State of Queensland and comprises the state border (the cadastral boundary between the states) and the coastline of Queensland, including marine islands. The state border coincides with the position as shown in the Queensland Digital Cadastral Database, while the coastline is the boundary between the mainland, marine islands and the sea, and is generally defined as mean high water, except in the area of mangroves, where the coastline is depicted as the seaward edge of the mangroves.

Coordination conservation area boundaries are primarily defined using cadastral parcels, with GPS data collected for partial boundaries. Boundaries following creeks or irregular boundaries are digitised. Relevant boundaries are updated to coincide with the DCDB current at the date of publication using topological rules.

This dataset consists of 10 metre contours over the State of Queensland which has been compiled from numerous source datasets and generalized to an overall 1:50000 mapping accuracy to produce state wide 10m contour coverage. You cannot download the entire State in one single order, it is to large. This dataset allows you to extract your area of interest using the 'clip, zip and ship' functionality only. You can select areas by local government area, city or suburb (locality) or freehand over small areas.

Description
The dataset is to show locations of current proposed infrastructure projects for the Coordinator-General's assessment and approval under the State Development and Public Works Organisation Act 1971 (SDPWO Act). The assessments include environmental and social impacts, involving local, state and federal governments. Coordinated projects are categorised in two types: Current EIS projects and Completed EIS projects. Current EIS projects are the projects that are currently going through the environmental impact statement (EIS) process. Completed EIS projects are for which the environmental impact statement (EIS) process are complete. This dataset is intended to provide indicative locations of the proposed Coordinated Projects only. It is not for detail property level analysis.

This data is a 3 second Digital Elevation Model (DEM) over the State of Queensland and includes a 100 km buffer into The Northern Territory, South Australia and New South Wales. This data is a subset of the national 3 second (~90m) Smoothed Digital Elevation Model (DEM-S) Version 1.0 which was derived from resampling the 1 second Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) derived Digital Elevation Model (DEM-S) Version 1.0 which is a 1 arc second (~30m) gridded smoothed version of the DEM (ANZCW0703013355). The DEM-S represents ground surface topography, excluding vegetation features, and has been smoothed to reduce noise and improve the representation of surface shape.
