vector digital data
This dataset is the spatial representation of land parcel boundaries in Queensland, and their related parcel descriptions, as captured in the Digital Cadastre DataBase (DCDB).
Provides a graphical representation of the land parcel boundaries of Queensland. It is commonly used as a spatial reference for other land parcel related datasets, or to locate individual lots.

This spatial dataset consists of only current parcels from the source Digital Cadastre DataBase (DCDB) system. It is updated nightly from the DCDB and is available via QSpatial as either a real time extraction for subject areas, or as a weekly packaged "whole of state" dataset. It is a fundamental reference layer for spatial information systems. This spatial dataset is not the point of truth for property boundaries, property descriptions or tenure information within the Department of Resources - other source systems perform this role.

Metadata Access Level
At the time of the initial graphical capture, a segment/parcel number was allocated to uniquely describe each parcel of land. Attribute information collected from plans and maps was then linked to the segment/parcel number to form the relationship between the graphics and the attributes. A double entry process of keying in the attributes was done to eliminate any keying in errors.
New update plans are committed to the database through a supervisor signoff process. There are several system validation procedures in the maintenance process and these are run at a required frequency. The estimated accuracy of the attribute information is 98%.
The current DCDB can be considered as a seamless map of the State and consists of base cadastral parcels, strata level parcels (secondary interests), volumetric and easement parcels. Base parcels are contiguous with surrounding base parcels. The graphic package and the routines that extract and reload update data to the database have a tolerance of 2mm.
The capture over the whole of the State is ongoing. The Department's Service Delivery Statement is "90% of cadastral survey plans are entered into the DCDB within 7 days of registration". The easement layer in the digital cadastre does not represent the full set of current easements. When the digital cadastre was created, easements that were shown on current survey plans were included. As new plans are registered, easements that are shown on those plans are included when they appear on the title. However, other easements that have not been surveyed do not appear. Furthermore, the department does not have a process by which the issue, surrenders or partial surrenders of easements are notified to administrators of the digital cadastre. A similar situation exits with covenants, profit a prendres and carbon abatement interest in that may not represent a complete dataset due to processes in the titling system and the complexities in the way the interests are recorded. Information about missing easements, encumbrances and interests can be sent to CadastralAdminDataHelp@resources.qld.gov.au The land title is the point of truth for easements and other restrictions.
Positional accuracy values have been allocated to all parcels and are an attribute of the parcel. This value reflects "maximum error" status of the parcel and has been derived from the capture process or assigned as the DCDB data has been spatially upgraded. This derived DCDB dataset contains a field (ACC_CODE) that includes a text description of positional accuracy for each parcel.
The spatial representation of the parcel boundaries are updated by an automatic routine that replaces the data every night. No visual inspection or manual intervention points are applied. Various integrity checks such as expected counts are applied by the automatic process.
This dataset is a spatial representation of parcel boundaries sourced from the DCDB system.
