This dataset is available on Brisbane City Council’s open data website – data.brisbane.qld.gov.au. The site provides additional features for viewing and interacting with the data and for downloading the data in various formats.
This dataset contains download links for the contours mapped over the Brisbane City Council local government area in 2002. The contours data uses the Geocentric Datum of Australia 1994 (GDA94) datum and is projected in Zone 56 of the Map Grid of Australia (MGA56).
Dataset Downloads
The dataset map provides two download options for each grid envelope:
- DWG: Predefined attachments associated with the grid envelope.
- JSON: Uses the ESRI Rest API to extract complete contour lines, that have any part of the contour line, within the grid envelope. This option allows you to define a custom envelope.
To download a file in the dataset map, click on a grid envelope, select the download type, click the download link.
Custom Envelope
If you need contour lines for a specific area, you can create a custom envelope. By following these steps, you can easily download contour lines for any specific area within the dataset:
- Determine Custom Coordinates: Find the latitude and longitude (coordinates) for the top-left and bottom-right corners of your specific area.
- Replace Coordinates: Replace the coordinates in any JSON download link with your custom coordinates.
Coordinate Format
The coordinate format in the JSON download links is:
(top left corner)longitude,latitude,(bottom right corner)longitude,latitude
