The availability of consistent and accurate detailed geographic information is a key enabler for the growth of national economies. Geospatial data, and the maps derived from them, are fundamental to effectiveness and productivity in sectors including government, utilities, building, construction, emergency services, defence, primary industry, mining, energy, transport and tourism.
National and other government spatial data holdings are critical to decision making in all of these industries.
