Brief description

The digital Suburb/Locality Boundaries and their legal identifiers have been derived from the cadastre data from each state and territory jurisdiction and are available below.\r\n\r\nSuburb/Locality Boundaries are part of Geoscape Administrative Boundaries, which is built and maintained by [Geoscape Australia](https://geoscape.com.au/) using authoritative government data. Further information about contributors to Administrative Boundaries is available [here](https://geoscape.com.au/legal/data-copyright-and-disclaimer/).\r\n\r\nThe full Administrative Boundaries dataset comprises seven Geoscape products:\r\n\r\n* Localities\r\n* Local Government Areas (LGAs)\r\n* Wards\r\n* Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Boundaries,\r\n* Electoral Boundaries\r\n* State Boundaries and\r\n* Town Points\r\n\r\nUpdated versions of Administrative Boundaries are published on a quarterly basis.\r\nUsers have the option to download datasets with feature coordinates referencing either GDA94 or GDA2020 datums.\r\n\r\n** Changes in the August 2022 release **\r\n\r\nGeoscape has indicated the following adjustments have been made to the ACT Localities component of Administrative Boundaries:\r\n\r\n* The new ACT locality of Kenny has been added to the product.\r\n\r\n** Notable changes in the August 2021 release: **\r\n\r\n* The Localities, Local Government Areas and Wards products have been redesigned to provide a new flattened data model, offering a simpler, easier-to-use structure. This will also:\r\n - change the composition of identifiers in these products.\r\n - provide state identifiers as an abbreviation (eg. NSW) rather than a code.\r\n - remove the static SA “Hundreds” data from Localities.\r\n* More information on the changes to Localities, Local Government Areas and Wards is available [here](https://geoscape.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Geoscape-LGA-Localities-Wards-Design-Concepts.pdf).\r\n* The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Boundaries will be updated to include the 2021 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS).\r\n* Further information on the August changes to Geoscape datasets is available [here](https://geoscape.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Product_Change_Notification_August_2021.pdf).\r\n\r\nFurther information on Administrative Boundaries, including FAQs on the data, is available [here](https://geoscape.com.au/data/administrative-boundaries/) through Geoscape Australia’s network of [partners](https://geoscape.com.au/partners/).
