Abstract
NEXIS (National Exposure Information System) Residential Dwelling Density is a set of four raster layers representing the density of residential dwellings across Australia at different scales and resolutions. Resolutions include 2km, 1km, 500m and 100m. The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) defines dwelling units as self-contained suites of rooms including cooking and bathing facilities and intended for long-term residential use. Such dwelling units include houses-detached buildings used for long-term residential purposes-and other dwellings including flats. This product is based on NEXIS version 13 (2022) data.

Lineage
The NEXIS (National Exposure Information System) building database provides nationally consistent exposure information about Australia's residents and buildings. These are classified as either residential, commercial or industrial. Residential building points from the database were extracted to create a national residential building point feature class. The ArcGIS Point Density tool was applied to create the highest resolution raster (100m). This output was then aggregated up to the three lower resolutions (500m, 1km, 2km) using the ArcGIS Aggregate tool. This product is based on NEXIS version 13 (2022) data
