Foundation Rail Infrastructure

The Foundation Rail Infrastructure feature dataset is part of the Foundation Spatial Data Framework theme for Transport. The Foundation Rail Infrastructure feature dataset is specifically made up of Rail line features (Railways, Rail Sidings and Tramline including Light Rail) and Rail points (Stations). This feature class represents a national aggregation of the spatial locations and attributes of line and point features, of publicly available data. Rail Infrastructure information has been derived from various sources provided by data custodians including Spatial Services (NSW), Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy (QLD), Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (VIC), Land Tasmania (TAS) and Department of Infrastructure and Transport (SA). The coverage is across all states and territories however due to restrictive licensing, Geoscience Australia data was used as the source data for Western Australia (lines and points), the Northern Territory (lines and points) and South Australia (points). Data published by Victoria falling within South Australia has been included (points). Further information on datasets provided by State and Territory custodians can be found under Source Information in the metadata statement.

基础铁路基础设施要素数据集是交通领域基础空间数据框架主题的一部分。该数据集具体包含铁路线要素（铁路主线、铁路侧线及有轨电车线路，含轻轨）与铁路点要素（车站）。此要素类是对公开可用数据中的线要素与点要素的空间位置及属性进行的全国性聚合。铁路基础设施信息源自数据托管方提供的多种来源，包括新南威尔士州空间服务局（Spatial Services, NSW）、昆士兰州自然资源、矿产和能源部（Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy, QLD）、维多利亚州环境、土地、水与规划部（Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, VIC）、塔斯马尼亚州土地局（Land Tasmania, TAS）及南澳大利亚州基础设施与交通部（Department of Infrastructure and Transport, SA）。

该数据集覆盖所有州和领地，但受限制性许可约束，澳大利亚地质科学局（Geoscience Australia）的数据被用作西澳大利亚州（线及点要素）、北领地（线及点要素）和南澳大利亚州（点要素）的源数据。维多利亚州发布的位于南澳大利亚州境内的数据（点要素）已被纳入。
