Planning schemes regulate new use and development of land. They have two parts; - a document that sets out the requirements or standards for use and development, and - maps indicating where the requirements or standards apply. The Tasmanian Interim Planning Scheme Zoning dataset is an online mapping resource incorporating all planning zones within the state where interim schemes remain in effect, and is linked to online supporting documentation.

The Tasmanian Interim Planning Scheme Overlays dataset is an online mapping resource incorporating all planning overlays within the state where interim schemes remain in effect, and is linked to online supporting documentation.

A planning scheme regulates the way land can be used or developed. A planning scheme has two parts: text that sets out the requirements or standards for use and development, and maps that show zones and overlays indicating where requirements or standards apply. The Tasmanian Planning Scheme zone boundary data comprises the zoning boundary maps for those parts of the State where the Tasmanian Planning Scheme is in effect. The data is linked to the planning scheme text published online. The electronic planning map in LISTmap, together with the electronic planning instrument, is the authorised version of the Tasmanian Planning Scheme under section 80M of the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993.

The Tasmanian Reserve Estate dataset is a digital map of the Reserve System for Tasmania. It represents land reserved to be managed for biodiversity conservation under Tasmania's Regional Forest Agreement (RFA) and other instruments. The layer combines data from several sources: LIST Public Land Classification [ANZTA0005000047] Wellington Park LIST Private Reserves [ANZTA0005000004] Protection Zones from Sustainable Timber Tasmania's 1:25 000 Management Decision Classification (MDC) series Land purchased by Private Land Conservation Program (PLCP) for conservation of CAR values not yet proclaimed Indigenous Protected Areas Informal Reserves on public land identified during the Regional Forestry Agreement (RFA) Other private reserves that have been set aside under independently certified forest management systems Future Potential Production Forest Stewardship Agreements Roadside Conservation Sites More information available in Business Rules at https://nre.tas.gov.au/conservation/development-planning-conservation-assessment/planning-tools/tasmanian-reserve-estate-spatial-layer

An amendment to the Region Planning Scheme changes the zoning or reservation of land to allow for a different land use. The Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) is responsible for keeping the Region Planning Schemes under review and initiating changes where they are seen to be necessary. An amendment to the Region Planning Scheme changes the zoning or reservation of land to allow for a different land use. The amendment process is regulated by the Planning and Development Act 2005. An amendment is advertised inviting submissions before a final decision on a proposal is made. A submission is a chance for people to express their opinion and provide information. The number of submissions received for or against a proposal will not determine the result, rather it is the reasoned argument of why a particular thing should or should not be done. Submissions assist the WAPC in reviewing planning proposals before proceeding. Advertised proposals are often modified in response to the public submission process.

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 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.
