Description
The Transport – Lines & Fixtures – Australia listing includes data sets from several Australian organisations that have made their data freely available under Creative Commons licencing.
The following details the data providers and their data sets.
Geoscience Australia
The Foundation Rail Infrastructure feature dataset is part of the Foundation Spatial Data Framework theme for Transport. The Foundation Rail Infrastructure feature dataset is specifically made up of Rail line features (Railways, Rail Sidings and Tramline including Light Rail) and Rail points (Stations). This feature class represents a national aggregation of the spatial locations and attributes of line and point features, of publicly available data. Rail Infrastructure information has been derived from various sources provided by data custodians including Spatial Services (NSW), Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy (QLD), Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (VIC), Land Tasmania (TAS) and Department of Infrastructure and Transport (SA).
The coverage is across all states and territories however due to restrictive licensing, Geoscience Australia data was used as the source data for Western Australia (lines and points), the Northern Territory (lines and points) and South Australia (points). Data published by Victoria falling within South Australia has been included (points).
Roads provides a single national digital view of road centrelines across the entirety of Australia. Roads is continuously built through sourcing a broad range of datasets from many organisations. This data is quality assured, standardised, integrated and topology-corrected before publication.
Road centrelines are primarily sourced from State and Territory governments and form the basis for the Roads network. Roads additional to the State and Territory provisions are digitised or integrated where reliable sources of road centrelines are identified that improves the quality and/or consistency of Roads nationally.

Use Cases
Location Planning
- Site Selection
- Real Estate Development
- Retail and Marketing Strategies
- Public Services and Amenities
Site Selection
Identify potential locations for new business ventures, such as retail stores, restaurants, or service centres, by analysing proximity to train stations. Locations near stations may attract commuters and tourists.
Real Estate Development
Determine optimal locations for residential or commercial real estate projects by considering accessibility to train stations. Properties located near stations often have higher value and demand.
Accelerating Advertising Revenue
Plan marketing campaigns and retail strategies by understanding the demographics and behaviors of commuters who use train stations. Targeted advertising near stations can be effective.
Public Services & Amenities
Identify areas lacking essential services or amenities, such as healthcare facilities, schools, or parks, and propose new developments or improvements based on the accessibility to train stations.
