Australia online 2D/3D map
The Department of Communications has released the National Map, an Open Data initiative, as it moves to boost the number of publicly available datasets.
The project gives users access to a single platform for government geospatial datasets, including those from the Bureau of Meteorology, Australian Bureau of Statistics and data.gov.au.
The geospatial data is visually presented in a map format, enabling users to see the data that they extract.
Currently available datasets cover information on land, water, infrastructure, broadband access, boundaries and population, with more to come.
