Foundation Electricity Infrastructure

The Foundation Electricity Infrastructure product contains three databases, Electricity Transmission Lines, Major Power Stations and Transmission Substations. The Electricity Transmission Lines Database presents the spatial location; in line format, all known high voltage electricity transmission lines that make up the electricity transmission network within Australia. The Major Power Stations Database presents the spatial locations; in point format, known major power stations within Australia. The Transmission Substations Database presents the spatial locations; in point format, all known electricity transmission substations within Australia.

Statement

The electricity transmission lines, substations and power stations were digitized in 2011 (version 1) from the library of imagery held within Geoscience Australia. Imagery used ranged from 0.15m to 2.5m resolution. This data was revised (Version 2) in March 2017 using Esri World Imagery. Version 3 was revised in 2019-21 using Esri World Imagery, and combined the three separate datasets into a single Foundation Electricity Infrastructure product under a new schema.
