Description

Abstract:

The Northern Territory declared Beneficial Uses areas defines the boundary extent of how a particular water body should be used. Beneficial Use is a legislated process that reduces the effects of water pollution and assists in the protection and management of water. The community decides how a particular water body should be used by choosing on one or more Beneficial Use categories.

Data Quality

Lineage:
Post 2019
Polygon captured using ArcGIS 10.6.1 with attributes provided by the data custodian.

Pre 2019
Each polygon was captured as a DGN file (Microstation v7 and v8) and converted to GIS format using ArcGIS 10.2.1 and FME Workbench. Each polygon was drawn as the extent of the declared beneficial uses area for the declaration process, rather than the gazettal information. There were several inconsistencies regarding the datum and coordinates used to describe the declared areas. Therefore, a decision was made by the custodians involved in the declaration process in 2010 to use the boundary on the map rather than the descriptive information found in the declared gazette.

Positional Accuracy:The spatial datasets follows the polygon topology rules. Where the boundary location was referred to a topographic map the 1:50,000 and 1:250,000 topographic raster data was used to check the linework.

Attribute Accuracy:Each area includes name and date details from the Gazettal Notice.
Review the Data Dictionary in this record to see attributes compiled for this dataset.

Logical Consistency:GIS editing tools were used to rectify all overshoots and undershoots in line work. For individual areas, polygon topology rules applied are; must not overlap, must not have gaps and each polygon has only one label.
Where the areas have also been compiled into a singular NT wide dataset to assist data display, polygons may overlap.

Completeness:Complete
