Abstract
The Emergency Management Facilities dataset presents the spatial locations, in point format, of all known policing facilities, ambulance stations, metropolitan fire facilities, rural fire facilities and SES facilities and Other Emergency Management facilities within Australia. Source Information: The primary information sources used to produce the Emergency Management Facilities Dataset was acquired from each Emergency Management State and Territory agency. Access to the required spatial data and attributes for each facility was coordinated with the support of Emergency Management Spatial Information Network Australia (EMSINA). 1.

Lineage
Using the previous Emergency Management Facilities datasets (2018) acquired from State and Territory agencies, the data was uploaded into an ArcSDE environment using Feature Manipulation Engine (FME). The process included the extraction of the themed features, and the translation of the data into a schema created by the Built Environment & Exposure Section, National Location Information Branch, Geoscience Australia (GA). In 2023 further FME processing was completed where the dataset was address matched using the original address provided and compared with the Geocoded National Address File (G-NAF) data. If no address match occurred GIS specialist’s where possible attempted to find a relevant corresponding G-NAF address to join to.
