QLD State Electoral Boundaries - Geoscape Administrative Boundaries

The digital Electoral Boundaries and their legal identifiers have been supplied by the Electoral Commission from each state and territory as well as the Australian Electoral Commission and are available below. These boundaries undergo re-distribution depending on population of the electorate before each election.\r\n\r\nElectoral Boundaries are part of Geoscape Administrative Boundaries, which is built and maintained by [Geoscape Australia](https://geoscape.com.au/) using authoritative government data. Further information about contributors to Administrative Boundaries is available [here](https://geoscape.com.au/legal/data-copyright-and-disclaimer/).\r\n\r\nThe full Administrative Boundaries dataset contains boundaries in seven themes: Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) boundaries, electoral boundaries, state and territory boundaries, local government areas, suburbs/localities, wards and town points.\r\n\r\nAs at November 2019, users have the option to download datasets with feature coordinates referencing the new Geocentric Datum of Australia 2020 (GDA2020) in addition to datasets on the GDA94 datum.\r\n\r\nFor GDA2020 datasets, the name of the zip folder and the root folder (once extracted) include a reference to GDA2020. For GDA94 datasets, the zip and root folder names do not contain the datum name (i.e. they remain the same as previous releases).\r\n\r\nFor example, the zip and root folder for Administrative Boundaries downloaded in GDA2020 for November 2019 looks like this:\r\n\r\n •\tNOV19_AdminBounds_ESRIShapefileorDBFfile_GDA2020; or \r\n •\tNOV19_AdminBounds_MapInfoTABFormat_GDA2020\r\n\r\nThe zip and root folder for Administrative Boundaries in GDA94 for November 2019 looks like this: \r\n\r\n •\tNOV19_AdminBounds_ESRIShapefileorDBFfile; or \r\n •\tNOV19_AdminBounds_MapInfoTABFormat\r\n\r\nIrrespective of the datum chosen, files within the respective folder use exactly the same naming structures.\r\n\r\n**There were no updates in the August 2024 release**\r\n\r\nFurther information on Administrative Boundaries, including FAQs on the data, is available [here](https://geoscape.com.au/data/administrative-boundaries/) through Geoscape Australia’s network of [partners](https://geoscape.com.au/partners/). They provide a range of commercial products based on Administrative Boundaries, including software solutions, consultancy and support.\r\n\r\nNote: On 1 October 2020, PSMA Australia Limited began trading as Geoscape Australia. \r\n\r\n## License Information\r\n\r\nThe Australian Government has negotiated the release of Administrative Boundaries to the whole economy under an [open CCBY 4.0 license](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).\r\n\r\nUsers must only use the data in ways that are consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles issued under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).\r\n\r\n**Users must also note the following attribution requirements:**\r\n\r\n_Preferred attribution for the Licensed Material:_\r\n\r\n> _Administrative Boundaries © [Geoscape Australia](https://geoscape.com.au/legal/data-copyright-and-disclaimer/) licensed by the Commonwealth of Australia under_ [_Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence (CC BY 4.0)_](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).\r\n\r\n_Preferred attribution for Adapted Material:_\r\n\r\n> _Incorporates or developed using Administrative Boundaries © [Geoscape Australia](https://geoscape.com.au/legal/data-copyright-and-disclaimer/) licensed by the Commonwealth of Australia under_ [_Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence (CC BY 4.0)_](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).

数字选举边界及其法定标识由各州、领地选举委员会以及澳大利亚选举委员会提供，详情如下。每届选举前，选举边界会根据选举人人口变化进行重新划定。

选举边界属于地理空间澳大利亚（Geoscape Australia）行政边界数据集的组成部分，该数据集由[地理空间澳大利亚（Geoscape Australia）](https://geoscape.com.au/)依托权威政府数据构建并维护。关于行政边界数据集贡献方的更多信息，可查阅[此处](https://geoscape.com.au/legal/data-copyright-and-disclaimer/)。

完整的行政边界数据集涵盖七大主题类别的边界数据：澳大利亚统计局（Australian Bureau of Statistics, ABS）边界、选举边界、州与领地边界、地方政府区域、郊区/居民区、选区以及城镇点位。

截至2019年11月，用户除可下载基于GDA94基准面的数据集外，还可选择下载采用新版澳大利亚地心基准面2020（Geocentric Datum of Australia 2020, GDA2020）的要素坐标数据集。

对于GDA2020基准面数据集，压缩包文件夹及解压后的根文件夹名称均包含GDA2020标识；而GDA94基准面数据集的压缩包与根文件夹名称则不包含基准面名称（即与过往发布版本保持一致）。

例如，2019年11月发布的GDA2020基准面行政边界数据集，其压缩包与根文件夹名称格式如下：
• NOV19_AdminBounds_ESRIShapefileorDBFfile_GDA2020；或
• NOV19_AdminBounds_MapInfoTABFormat_GDA2020

2019年11月发布的GDA94基准面行政边界数据集，其压缩包与根文件夹名称格式如下：
• NOV19_AdminBounds_ESRIShapefileorDBFfile；或
• NOV19_AdminBounds_MapInfoTABFormat

无论选择何种基准面，对应文件夹内的文件命名规则完全一致。

**2024年8月发布版本无更新内容**
