The LIST Local Government Areas data set depicts gazetted Local Government Boundaries for the 29 Municipalities in the State of Tasmania. These were proclaimed in 1993. Since then there has only been a couple of very minor adjustments to these boundaries to conform to gazetted amendments. Local Government Boundaries legally extend to Low Water Mark and include offshore rocks and islands adjacent to the coastline, irrespective of where the digital boundary may portray. Attributes include Local Government Area name, three-digit Municipal (LGA) code and Central Plan Register (CPR) plan reference number.

This data set depicts the boundary of the State of Tasmania as defined in the Colonial Acts Confirmation Act, 1894. This is where the state of Tasmania is legally defined for the purpose of federation and the constitution. Tasmanian territory is defined as the land or islands within the bounding rectangle and Macquarie Island. The State Coastal Waters are defined in a series of acts including the Coastal and other Waters (Application of State Laws) Act, 1982 and the Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act, 1982. The latter act defines the Tasmanian Adjacent Area which is the basis for the definition of the State Coastal Waters. The Adjacent Area id essentially the same as the State Boundary rectangle plus and extension that includes the South Tasman Rise and Macquarie Island. The State Coastal Waters are broadly defined as a 3 nautical mile band of water measured from the low tide mark the area. The data set was created based on Australian Geodetic Datum, 1966 (AGD66) and then transformed to Geocentric Datum of Australia 1994 (GDA94). No datum was specified in the original legal definition it was decided to use the datum specified for the Adjacent Area definition in the Petroleum (submerged Lands) Act, 1982. The data set is currently stored in GDA94 geographicals (ie latitude and longitude).

The LIST Land District Boundaries data set contains those 20 Land Districts that divide Tasmania into administrative areas used when defining the granting and derivation of land. Land Districts were formerly known as Counties. A Land District may contain a number of Parishes with those Parish boundaries forming the Land District boundary. Land Districts may still be referred to on Land Titles relating to the derivation of the land.

This layer supersedes Ward Boundaries (LGATE-051) A digital representation of the local government Ward boundaries for the state of Western Australia. Ward boundaries are being progressively added. Not all local governments are divided into wards. Local government councillors are elected to represent either the whole local government or a particular ward. Derived from the Spatial Cadastral Database (SCDB) and based on GDA 94. Updated regularly when amendments/changes are formalised.

Access API NSW Administration Boundaries - ABS State Electoral Divisions 2021 State Electoral Divisions (SED) are an ABS Mesh Block approximation of state electoral districts. A state electoral district is an area legally prescribed for the purpose of returning one or more members to the State or Territory Lower Houses of Parliament, or the relevant equivalent. Boundaries are based on the most up to date state electoral districts available prior to publication. State Electoral Divisions may change as State or Territory authorities revise their boundaries. Where this occurs, State Electoral Divisions will be updated on an annual basis in conjunction with updates of other Non ABS Structures. Please note that ABS approximated boundaries do not match official legal or administrative boundaries and should only be used for statistical purposes.
