GIS desktop study workflow
Use GIS Export when you want raw spatial layers instead of a compiled PDF report for early-stage desktop review.
Why use export for desktop studies
Some teams prefer to work directly in QGIS, ArcGIS, Civil 3D, or CAD rather than start from a PDF report. GIS Export supports that workflow by packaging site data into ready-to-use formats.
Useful layers
- Parcel boundaries, roads and easements
- Contours, elevation points, GeoTIFF DEM and DXF TIN
- Geology, soils and acid sulphate soils
- Watercourses
- Planning zones, flood, bushfire, geohazard and heritage overlays
- Georeferenced aerial imagery for Queensland and NSW
How it helps
It reduces the time spent manually locating, clipping, converting, and packaging public datasets for a single site.
