Title: DUS Corporate Geographic Database - MapInfo StreetPro Streets Data
Custodian: ACT Government, Department of Urban Services, Customer Service and Information, Information Management Branch
Jurisdiction: Australian Capital Territory
Abstract:
MapInfo Australia is the custodian of the StreetPro series of data sets. These are based on PSMA data, which is based on data provided by a range of jurisdictions across Australia. This data set is a slightly modified version of the Streets component of the original StreetPro Display data set covering the ACT. This version has been created to complement other data, which together forms the ACT Department of Urban Services Corporate Geographic Database under the GIM Strategy. The DUS CGD creates a fully homogeneous and integrated set of core geographic information, which uses Oracle SDO. The CGD is a read only Oracle spatial database located in the ACT Government's production computing environment and is capable of being directly read by most GIS software. The CGD stores data in both the ACT Stromlo Projection and MGA94 projection for Zone55. This data set includes the following attributes: Streets_ID, Street, RoadType, Roadtype_Text, ANZLIC_ID, Source_ANZLIC_ID, Feature_Type_Code, Create_Date, Feature_Instance_Metadata_ID.

Access constraints:
This data is held under license from MapInfo Australia. This license permits use within the context of the GIM Strategy. Community access data sets in the DUS CGD database are available for internal use by agencies in the ACT Government, including presentation through ACT Government web sites. Uses beyond this require prior approval by the custodians of both the source data (Map Info), and Department of Urban Services.
Lineage:
The data set was initially compiled by PSMA and then subsequently enhanced by MapInfo Australia. The user should refer to the metadata statement ANZQL0002900084 for details on this processing. To integrate it into the CGD, the GIM Unit converted it from a MapInfo TAB file into Oracle, retaining most of the original attributes and adding those common to all CGD data sets. The data was cleaned to ensure logical consistency and the result was converted into an Oracle table. A subset of this data set was created from a selection of the types Highway, Main Roads and Local Connector roads to create a second data set called Major Roads.
Positional accuracy:
The user should refer to ANZQL0002900084 for this information.
Attribute accuracy:
The user should refer to ANZQL0002900084 for this information. NOTE: Where the name of 'Not Named' and 'Roundabout' had been assigned, these were removed to improve the display of road labels.
Logical Consistency:
The user should refer to ANZQL0002900084 for this information.
Completeness:
The user should refer to ANZQL0002900084 for this information. NOTE: The attributes of Source_ANZLIC_ID, Feature_Type_Code and Feature_Attribute_Metadata_ID have not been populated.
