1170.2 Wind Regions for Australia
This dataset provides geospatial representation of the Australian wind regions defined in AS/NZS 1170.2 (2021) Structural Design Actions Part 2: wind actions (hereafter “Standard”). The dataset is intended to assist in delineating areas for referencing the Standard – for example in assigning building vulnerability models across the country.
The dataset represents Geoscience Australia's interpretation of the definitions set out in the Standard and is intended for internal use only.
This dataset is not suitable for design purposes: professional designers should refer to the Standard for assessing the wind region for their projects.
In the event of any inconsistency between this dataset and Figure 3.1 in the Standard, the Standard will take precedence. This product has not been formally endorsed by Standards Australia or the relevant Working Groups and subcommittees. References to localities are indicative and use the best available information at the time of production.
