GEODATA TOPO 250K Series 3 DVD cover

GEODATA TOPO 250K Series 3 can be purchased as packaged products in select file formats. Choose from Personal Geodatabase, ArcView Shapefile or MapInfo TAB file format.

Each package contains one or two DVD ROM in the selected file format. The data is provided as a seamless coverage of Australia in the following themes: Cartography, Elevation, Framework, Habitation, Hydrography, Infrastructure, Terrain, Transport, Utility and Vegetation. These themes contain up to 92 feature classes, covering many features depicted on the paper map series.

Intending purchasers, please note: The Shapefile format does not support annotation feature classes - as a result three annotation feature classes have not been provided. The annotation feature class is also not available in TAB format at this time due to technical issues.

Data is also available as GEODATA TOPO 250K Series 3 for Google Earth in .kml format for use on Google Earth TM Mapping Service.

A comprehensive User Guide is included with each package.
