Abstract:  This dataset represents the centre of generally named natural features (e.g., caves, mountain peaks) within the State of Queensland, where the extent (length and width) is indistinct.

Purpose: This Queensland wide dataset provides generalised information for topographical mapping purposes. To provide a dataset representing the centre of generally named natural features (includes terms: anchorage, bluff, cape, cave, corner, ford, gap, head, headland, hill, junction, knob, landing place, marine rock, mountain, pass, plain, pocket, rock, terrestrial rock) within the State of Queensland, where the extent (length and width) is indistinct. The primary objective of this dataset is to provide a cartographic portrayal of Queensland's natural features and should be interpreted and utilised correctly. It is suitable for use in land administration, emergency management, topographic mapping and in the production of web based mapping applications.

ATTRIBUTE_DATE (Attribute Date) - Date of the source map or data where the name of the feature was obtained from.

Multiple names can be shown, separated by a comma. ADD_NAMES_SOURCE (Additional Names Source) - The source map or data that the additional names of the feature were obtained from. Multiple sources can be shown, separated by a comma. If multiple sources are shown, the written sequence will be the same as the written sequence of the names themselves. FEATURE_SOURCE (Feature Source) - The source imagery, map, or data that the spatial location and shape of the of the feature was obtained from. FEATURE_DATE (Feature Date) - Date of the source imagery, map, or data that the spatial location and shape of the feature was obtained from. ELEVATION_M (Elevation (m)) - The elevation of the feature measured in metres in relation to the Australian Height Datum. This field only relates to Capes, Mountains and Passes otherwise left blank ELEAVTION_SOURCE (Elevation Source) - The digital elevation model, map, or data that the elevation of the feature was obtained from ELEVATION_DATE (Elevation Date) - Date of the digital elevation model, map, or data that the elevation of the feature was obtained from. RELATIONSHIP (Relationship) - Relationship to sea level. (options: Exposed, Submerged, Tidal). This field only relates to Marine Rocks otherwise left blank PFI (PFI) - A Persistent Feature Identifier (PFI) is generated once for each feature at the point of creation. The value of the PFI will stay with the feature through all changes to the feature (both spatial and non-spatial) until the feature is retired. UFI (UFI) - A Unique Feature Identifier (UFI) is generated once for each new feature at the point of creation (at this point the PFI and UFI will be the same). The value of the UFI will stay with the feature through all changes to the feature (both spatial and non-spatial) unless the feature is split into multiple other parts. If the feature is split, the separate parts will retain the original PFI but new UFI’s will be generated for the split parts. CREATED_DATE (Created Date) - The date the feature was originally captured and first loaded to the database LAST_EDITED_DATE (Last Edited Date) - Date of the last editing or revision to the feature UPPER_SCALE (Upper Scale) - The upper scale for which the feature should be considered suitable TEXT_NOTE (Text Note) - For mapping purposes. Additional annotation that can be shown on a map. ADD_INFORMATION (Additional Informmation) - A comment field (additional information) This dataset is stored in an ESRI Geodatabase. Some columns names may be shortened if downloaded in the ESRI shape format.

Lineage:
Lineage statement: Initially for whole of state data capture, the location of the features was sourced from existing DNRM 25000 topographic data and maps, the Queensland Place Names Database and from Geoscience Australia 100000 and 250000 topographic data and maps. As better quality source information becomes availble (e.g. imagery, elevation data), the features are moved to the more accurate location. Data is also continually updated as errors, new named features and other items are known. Attributes within the data describe the primary source used to determine the spatial location of the feature and the primary source used to determine the name if available of the feature. This dataset is GDA2020 Compliant. The source data, and therefore the captured features, were captured as GDA94 (horizontal only). This data has been projected to GDA2020 by using ArcGIS Pro geoprocessing tool Project geoprocessing. Using geographic transformation parameters ‘GDA94 to GDA2020 NTv2 3 Conformal’.

Data quality report - Absolute external positional accuracy:
Measure description: Data has been collected and checked from many sources which have their own horizontal accuracy. The location source attributes are linked to each feature. The data therefore has a range of positional accuracies depending on the source of the feature. - Orthophotos and satellite imagery - +/- 5 metres - Topographic mapping - +/- 12.5 metres. While the data can be used for a range of purposes, in this initial stage the data has been captured to cater for 1:25 000 map production and generally the expected average horizontal accuracy is within +/- 12.5 metres of true position.

Conformance test results:
Test passed: true
Meaning of the result: The data is to a standard determined as fit for the purpose for which it was collected.
