<b>NEW</b>
We have released a new GDA2020 version of our Foundational Spatial Data Framework (FSDF) datasets which replaces the current GDA94 version. This updated service aligns our spatial data with the national standard, improving accuracy, consistency, and compatibility with modern positioning technologies.
 
The previous service will remain available during the transition period as GDA94 services are retired, but users are encouraged to move to the new GDA2020 service as soon as practical.

Content TitleNSW Water Theme - GDA2020 ServiceContent TypeHosted Feature LayerDescription
The Water theme is based on hydrology which is the study of the movement, distribution and quality of water. This includes the hydrologic cycles, water resources and environmental watershed sustainability.
Hydrology includes surface hydrology, hydrogeology, drainage basin management and water quality where water plays the central role.
Water (surface water and groundwater) is concerned with information as aligned with the definitions under the Water Act 2007.
This theme includes Hydrology elements which are described as:
<b>Surface Water -</b> water in a watercourse, lake or wetland or any water flowing over or lying on land, either after having precipitated naturally after rain or having risen to the surface naturally from underground.
<b>Groundwater -</b> water occurring at a place below ground that has been pumped, diverted or released to that place for the purpose of being stored there. Does not include water held in underground tanks, pipes or other works.

Water security is one of Australia’s major challenges. The benefits of using these nationally consistent data products include analysis, improved operational practices and policy decision making.Initial Publication Date05/02/2020Data Currency01/01/3000Data Update FrequencyOtherContent SourceData provider filesFile TypeESRI File Geodatabase (*.gdb)Attribution© State of New South Wales (Spatial Services, a business unit of the Department of Customer Service NSW).

Therefore, the position of the feature instance will be within 0.5mm at map scale for 90% of the well-defined points. That is, 1:500 = 0.25m, 1:2000 = 1m, 1:4000 = 2m, 1:25000 = 12.5m, 1:50000 = 25m and 1:100000 = 50m. A program to upgrade the spatial location and accuracy of data is ongoing.Spatial Reference System (dataset)GDA94Spatial Reference System (web service)OtherWGS84 Equivalent ToGDA2020Spatial ExtentFull StateContent LineageFor additional information, please contact us via the <a href="https://www.spatial.nsw.gov.au/contact_us">Spatial Services Customer Hub</a>Data ClassificationUnclassifiedData Access PolicyOpenData QualityFor additional information, please contact us via the <a href="https://www.spatial.nsw.gov.au/contact_us">Spatial Services Customer Hub</a>Terms and ConditionsCreative CommonsStandard and SpecificationOpen Geospatial Consortium (OGC) implemented and compatible for consumption by common GIS platforms.
