Topographic Map Indexes WFS

This service contains the topographic map indexes of 1:1 Million, 1:250,000 and 1:100,000 scale maps available from Geoscience Australia. These indexes drive the online topographic map index dashboards and contain value-add attributes, including a link to download the map. There are two 1:250,000 layers in the index; one layer which represents the new 1:250,000 AUSTopo Australian Digital Map Series index and one layer which represents the existing 1:250,000 scale index. The datasets for the 1:1 Million, 1:100,000 and existing 1:250,000 scale maps can be found in the eCat record 145830. The dataset for the 1:250,000 AUSTopo Australian Digital Topographic Map Series can be found in the eCat record 148692.

Statement

A need for the topographic map indexes as OGC web services became apparent. This is the second iteration of these map indexes as a web service. They contain the map index data that is also used by the online map index dashboards in AGOL. The datasets for the 1:1 Million, 1:100,000 and existing 1:250,000 scale maps can be found in the eCat record 145830. The dataset for the 1:250,000 AUSTopo Australian Digital Topographic Map Series can be found in the eCat record 148692.
