Digital boundary files for Australia

Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) Edition 3 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) digital boundaries are available in either the OGC GeoPackage, or ESRI shapefile formats. These boundaries are also available in a Web Linked Dataset.

Digital boundaries are available in both the Geocentric Datum of Australia 2020 (GDA2020) and the Geocentric Datum of Australia 1994 (GDA94). GDA2020 was adopted as the new official national datum in 2017 and will be adopted gradually by organisations across Australia. The difference between GDA94 and GDA2020 on the ground is currently about 1.8 metres. Eventually, the ABS will phase out GDA94 boundaries.
