Description
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) is acting as spatial data manager on behalf of the co-custodian, NTPFES - NT Fire and Rescue Service (NTFRS).
The Northern Territory Emergency Response Areas (ERAs) Administrative Boundaries define the spatial extents of areas as determined by the Minister as statutory instruments under the Fire and Emergency Act for the purpose of managing urban and urban-fringe development around major population centres in the Northern Territory.
The Emergency Response Areas (ERAs) are excluded from the designated Bushfires NT administrative boundaries. Refer to metadata reference F8DBF4562DFBC0C9E040CD9B21447F4C.

Data Quality
Lineage:The data was recompiled by DENR data stored by Dept Lands Planning and Environment. In some locations, the existing Darwin ERA boundary linework was slightly amended; eg to follow a new road centreline. Usually the boundary description referred to either named roads or cadastral property parcel number. In some instances reference is made to parcel numbers that no longer exist. A best fit option was used in these circumstances. Where the boundary description referred to a river, a background image was used to create the linework.
Positional Accuracy:These spatial datasets have polygon geometry. Linework was matched (snapped) to either road centrelines or cadastral boundaries where applicable.
Attribute Accuracy:Each polygon has descriptive details including the name and date details from the Northern Territory Government Gazettal Notice.
Logical Consistency:GIS editing tools were used to rectify all overshoots and undershoots in line work. For individual areas, polygon topology rules applied are; must not overlap, must not have gaps and each polygon has only one label.
Where the areas have also been compiled into a singular NT wide dataset to assist data display, polygons may overlap. The polygons were merged in a GIS so that each area had only a single record, instead of creating additional polygons where overlaps occurred.
Completeness:This dataset may be updated.

Supplementary Information
This dataset is also used in conjuction with Bushfires NT Administrative Boundaries (Fire Management Zones, Volunteer Bushfire Brigade Areas, and Fire Protection Zones). The Bushfires NT boundaries exclude ERA boundaries.
