Description

Abstract:

Contains a vector representation of the topographic features depicting Australia's coastline, and State and Territory borders. The coastline represents the position of the Mean High Water, the seaward edge of coastal mangroves, inlet closing lines and those parts of the coastline defined as indefinite.

Data Quality

Lineage:For the COAST-100K product, attribute accuracy is a measure of the degree to which the attribute values of features agree with the information on the source material. The allowable error in attribute accuracy ranges from 0.5% to 5%, at a 99% confidence level. Where less than 1% of attribute errors are permissible the entire population is tested. Where a less stringent limit is set for allowable errors a random subset of the relevant features in the tile is generally tested. The sample size is determined from statistical tables using the known population size of the relevant feature. A full description of the checks on the data, the test sample size and the allowable error are provided in the COAST-100K Data User Guide supplied with the data.

Positional Accuracy:COAST-100K data complies with the following statement of horizontal accuracy: "The summation of errors from all sources results in data with a standard deviation of 50 metres for well defined points". Alternative and equal ways of expressing this error are: Not more than 10% of well-defined points are in error by more than 80 metres; and In the worst case, a well defined point is out of position by 150 metres.

The allowable error in attribute accuracy ranges from 0.5% to 5%, at a 99% confidence level. Where less than 1% of attribute errors are permissible the entire population is tested.

Logical Consistency:For the COAST-100K product, logical consistency is a measure of the degree to which data complies with the technical specifications. The data were tested using a mixture of UNIX scripts and ARC/INFO commands which were independent of the production system. Graphical tests were used to check such things as intersections, polygon closure, minimum size of polygons and topological relationships. A full description of the checks on the data, the test procedure, test sample size and the allowable error are provided in the COAST-100K Data User Guide supplied with the data.

Completeness:The primary data source has been NTMS 1:100 000 scale map production material, with supplied survey coordinates from relevant State authorities. Only features listed in the COAST-100K data dictionary have been captured from the map source material. The completeness was tested by overlaying symbolised plots of the data on the source material and carrying out a visual comparison.
