Geology, soils, acid sulfate, easements, watercourses and the statutory planning overlays - as vectors, not a picture. Enter an address, or draw or upload your own area, choose the layers you need, and download one clipped, correctly projected ZIP.

Elevation contour lines, Z embedded on each vertex.
3D spot heights sampled from the state DEM.
Float32 DEM in metres AHD, clipped to the extent.
Delaunay triangulated surface over the DEM: DXF 3DFACE entities for CAD, and OBJ/COLLADA meshes shifted to a local origin for SketchUp, Blender and Rhino.
Mapped streams, creeks and drainage lines.
Surface geology polygons with unit name, lithology and age.
Australian Soil Classification orders and soil landscape units.
Acid sulphate soil risk and occurrence mapping.
Flood planning areas, AEP extents, overland flow paths, storm tide and mapped historic flood events.
Bushfire prone areas, bushfire management overlays and hazard buffers.
Landslide risk, mine subsidence, underground coal mining, erosion management and salinity.
Planning scheme zones and region scheme zones.
State and local heritage places, heritage overlays and registers.
Current aerial photography as a georeferenced JPG, plus a KMZ overlay.
South Australia: South Australian aerial imagery is licensed and cannot be redistributed in exports. Victoria: Victorian aerial imagery is licensed and cannot be redistributed in exports.
Stereographic sun path chart for the site, with solstice and equinox sunrise, solar noon and sunset times and azimuths, plus sun position through every daylight hour of the 21st of each month as CSV.
3695 published flood-model grids - depth, flood level, velocity and hazard for each modelled event and climate scenario - clipped to the property as GeoTIFF, with 0.5 m or 1.0 m contours in DXF, GeoPackage, Shapefile or KMZ.

10 of the 18 datasets are ground conditions and statutory planning layers. Plenty of tools will hand you a site plan in DXF. What takes the work out of a desktop study is having geology, soils, acid sulfate, easements, watercourses and the overlays arrive as attributed vectors in the same clipped, projected package.

Comparison of publicly published feature lists, desk review 28 August 2026, grouped by the kind of product rather than by vendor. Competitors change what they offer; check their current pack before you rely on this. Our own coverage varies by dataset and address, which is why the address check above confirms availability for the exact site.

Selected source layers are fetched, clipped to the site extent, reprojected, and packaged for the software you already use.
Use an address, draw an area, or upload a boundary for the area you actually need.
Vector layers can be supplied in DXF, Shapefile, GeoPackage, and KMZ. Dataset-specific outputs such as GeoTIFF, TIN, and imagery are included where selected and available.
Use the files in Civil 3D, AutoCAD, QGIS, ArcGIS, Google Earth, or your normal desktop review process.
All prices include GST. Start with one site, or reduce the per-export cost when this becomes a regular workflow.
