NSW Cadastre web service is a dynamic map of cadastral features extracted from the NSW Digital Cadastral Database (DCDB). It provides access to a state wide integrated database and a component of the foundation spatial datasets within the New South Wales. A “cadastre” is an official register of property showing boundaries. The DCDB contains current land titles only. The cadastral feature class layers provided through this web service includes: • Large Rural Plan Extent • Rural Plan Extent • Section Extent • Plan Extent • Lot • Plan Extent Labels • Section Extent Labels • Lot Labels The available attributes for point queries are: • Lot/Section/Plan string • CadID This web service allows users to easily integrate NSW Cadastre into Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) compliant spatial platforms and applications. The NSW Cadastral web service can be used for resource management, environmental management, land use planning, agriculture management, emergency management and recreational purposes This service can be used to aggregate information for analytical purposes. Cadastral boundary data in combination with geo-coded address data, imagery, demographic information and agency specific business information underpins the ability to perform high quality spatial analysis.

Cadastral Features are made up of the following data held in the NSW Digital Cadastral Database (DCDB). Easement: depicts a right, attached to land (the dominant tenement), to use other land (the servient tenement) for a specified non-exclusive purpose known to the law, e.g. right of carriageway, easement to drain water etc. – however the law also recognises an easement in favour of a statutory authority without a dominant tenement, described as an ‘easement in gross’. Road Corridor: represents the spatial extent of the legal road network. Road Centreline: represents a line that forms the centreline of cadastral road corridors.

The CADNSDI or the Cadastral Publication Data Standard is the cadastral data component of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). This is the publication guideline for cadastral data that is intended to provide a common format, structure and content for cadastral information that can be made available across jurisdictional boundaries. This ensures the availability of consistent and uniform cadastral data that meets various business needs including connections to the source information from the data stewards. Data stewards are responsible for determining which data are published and should be contacted for any questions regarding data content or for additional information. The cadastral publication data is supplied regularly by cadastral data producers in a standardized format and consists of two main components: land parcel data and cadastral reference data. It is essential to understand that publication data differs from operational, maintenance, or production data. The production data is structured to optimize maintenance processes, integrates with internal agency operations, and contains significantly more detail than publication data. The publication data represents a subset of the more comprehensive production data and is reformatted to align with national standards, allowing integration across jurisdictional boundaries and be presented in a uniform and standardized format nationwide. The data has been converted from source documents into a digital format and structured in compliance with FGDC Cadastral Data Content Standards and Guidelines for publication. This data set is optimized for data publication and sharing rather than for specific “production” or operation and maintenance. The primary source of this data is the Cadastral survey records maintained by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), supplemented by records and geographic control coordinates from other federal agencies such as the U.S. Forest Service, USGS 7 ½ minute quadrangles and, where applicable, alternate source data. Occasionally, the complexity of surveys made data collection prohibitively expensive, especially in areas with multiple overlapping mineral surveys. In such instances, the data were often not fully abstracted or were only partially abstracted before being incorporated into the dataset.

The Cadastral Fabric is made up of the following features within the NSW Digital Cadastral Database (DCDB). Lot: depicts a parcel of land created on a survey plan. Each lot may be represented by standard lots, standard part lots, strata or stratum. Each lot has a lot number, section number, plan lot area, plan number, plan label, ITS title status, and stratum label. Road: represents dedicated public roads which are open ways for the passage of vehicles, persons or animals on land. The road dataset includes public roads in use. Each road type has a section number, plan number, plan label, ITS title status, road type, road width or Crown/Council width, lot number, and stratum label. Unidentified: represents a parcel of land that cannot be identified. Crown land, vested, dedicated and severed land may be included in this category as well as Old System lots for which lot/DP identification cannot be found. This dataset also identifies the locations of 100ft wide reserves, ACT regions, closed roads, crossings, surveyed areas, and un-surveyed areas. Water Feature: represents tidal, non-tidal and ocean waters which form a cadastral boundary.
