What is DataShare
DataShare is a platform to order and download data. You can configure spatial datasets in the format and area of your choosing. We then prepare your order as a package and send you a link by email when it is ready to download.
We will soon be introducing raster data to the accessible catalogue. This includes metro and regional aerial imagery and point cloud captures spanning the entire timeline of government captures. You’ll need to pay a small fee for most of these datasets due to the large data format and amount of processing we need to do.
