These data provide locational and attribute information for places for places nominated to and included in the National Heritage List as determined by the Australian Government managed by the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water. National Heritage List polygons with attribute information describing the place name, class (indigenous, natural, historic), and status. Places subject to confidentiality agreements are included in these data but the location is generalised to the bounding 100k mapsheet. The location data for place nominations that have been rejected, are ineligible, removed or destroyed are not included in the publicly downloadable spatial dataset.

These data provide locational and attribute information for places on the Commonwealth Heritage List as determined by the Australian Government Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water, Heritage Branch. Data consist of Commonwealth Heritage List polygons with attribute information describing the place name, class (indigenous, natural, historic), and status. Places subject to confidentiality agreements are not included in these data. The location data for place nominations that are under internal assessment, have been rejected, are ineligible, removed or destroyed are not included in the publicly downloadable spatial dataset.

National Heritage List polygons with attribute information describing the place name, class (indigenous, natural, historic), and status. Places subject to confidentiality agreements are included in these data but the location is generalised to the bounding 250k mapsheet.

A polygon dataset maintained by the Department Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW) on behalf of the Heritage Council of NSW for items listed on the State Heritage Register under the Heritage Act, 1977. The data applies to a listing on the State Heritage Register and applies to a place, building, work, relic, moveable object, precinct, or land. The data is available in ESRI shapefile (.shp) format.

The National Conservation Lands Database contains data on the location and nature of private lands protected and/or managed for conservation purposes in Australia. This data set was created as part of a collaborative project between the data contributors and the Australian Government. The project was governed by a Steering Committee with representatives from five of the nine data contributors listed below. These acronyms are used in the remainder of the data. The program that contributed the data is described in the Completeness section of the metadata.DEC: Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation DECCW: New South Wales Department of Environment, Climate Change and WaterDEH: South Australia Department of Environment and Heritage - now the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water and Natural ResourcesDERM: Queensland Department of Environment and Resource ManagementDPIPWE: Tasmania Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and EnvironmentNCT: New South Wales Nature Conservation Trusts Covenanting program NRETAS: Northern Territory Department of Natural Resources, Environment, the Arts and Sport Covenanting ProgramNTA WA: The National Trust of Australia (WA) TFN: Trust For Nature (Victoria) This 2009 (first) version of the database includes the majority of high security mechanisms operating on private land in Australia, where conservation is the sole or key objective. The data set contains all agreements from the inception of the program through which they were delivered to (and including) those established on the 30 June 2009. The department intends to annually update the database.The database contains:- an NCLD_DESC table - that contains descriptions of each agreement- an NCLD_POLY feature class - that contains all the agreement polygons- a NCLD_LABEL layer - that contains one point for each agreement that fits within an agreement polygon- a NCLD_OVERLAP_POLY feature class -that contains all agreement polygons that overlapped higher level agreement polygons. This is explained below.The polygons in this data set represent the land subject to private land conservation agreements. Each agreement is uniquely identified by AGREMT_ID. There are two polygon layers associated with the database. The principle layer is called the NCLD_POLY feature class and contains polygons of the location of the agreements. Where there are overlapping agreements, the most secure agreement is represented in the polygon layer and those agreements that were of lower security and overlapped, have been removed from the agreement polygon layer and stored in the NCLD_OVERLAP_POLY feature class. The NCLD_POLY feature class and the NCLD_OVERLAP_POLY feature class attribute table that the AGREMT_ID and few other fields. The descriptive details of each agreement are stored in the NCLD_DESC table including the GIS_AREA for the convenience of calculating statistics. This text table can be linked to the polygon layers for GIS analysis. The attributes of the NCLD_DESC table are described in the Attribute Accuracy section of this metadata. Many of the attributes are the same as those used in the Collaborative Australian Protected Area Database .In order to facilitate topology checking and analysis the NCLD_POLY feature class does not contain overlapping polygons. Overlapping agreements do occur in practice, where there is more than one agreement legally still in place at a time. To capture this information the polygon data has been processed to represent the highest security agreement at any one location in the agreements polygon layer. Agreements that are completely displaced by a higher security agreement have the value in the OVERLAP field in the text table, a GIS_AREA of 0 (zero) and the entire polygon represented only in the NCLD_OVERLAP_POLY feature class. Agreements that are only partially displaced have the displaced portion of the polygon(s) in the NCLD_OVERLAP_POLY feature class. In the agreements text table

A point dataset maintained by the Department Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW) on behalf of the Heritage Council of NSW. The data applies to a listing on the State Heritage Register under the Heritage Act, 1977 and applies to a place, building, work, relic, moveable object, precinct, or land. The data is available in ESRI shapefile (.shp) format.

The State Register of Heritage Places recognises a place's value and importance to Western Australia. It includes buildings, structures, gardens, cemeteries, landscapes and archaeological sites and has more than 1,300 places listed in it. The State Register is managed by the Heritage Council and provides a place with statutory protection to ensure that any proposed demolition, relocation, subdivision, amalgamation, alteration, addition or new development is in harmony with its cultural heritage values. The State Register continues to expand, as significant places yet to be registered are progressively assessed by the Council.

This dataset contains the 16 National Landscape areas - as defined by the staff in the Planning, Tourism and National Landscapes Section (PTNL Section) within the Parks Australia Division.
