State-wide datasets can vary in source, coverage and scale depending on the location. The following PDF maps show the coverage and availability of data:

• Contour data coverage for 0.25 metre, 0.5 m, 5 m and 10 m - contours (PDF, 2.8MB)

• Digital elevation model (DEM) data coverage - elevation heights (PDF, 3.1MB)

• Hydrography data coverage - drainage network (PDF, 1.7MB)

• LiDAR data coverage - current and proposed projects (LiDAR) projects (PDF, 2.4MB)

Contour data

You can view or download contour data a number of ways:

1m Contours

You can download the 1m contours from the Qld Spatial Catalogue but not as a single file. Due to the size of this dataset, you must select small areas only (eg locality or freehand over small areas). Instructions are here.

5m Contours

You can download 5m contours from the Qld Spatial Catalogue by region: Central, South and North Queensland datasets can be downloaded as a single Esri SHP file and will display at 1:25,000.

The complete file Contours - 5 metre - Queensland - by area of interest cannot be downloaded as a single file. You must extract data by local government area, city or suburb (locality) or freehand over small areas. Instructions are here.

10m Contours

The Contours - 10 metre interval - by area of interest dataset must be extracted by local government area, city or suburb (locality) or freehand over small areas. The whole dataset is too large. Instructions on how to clip zip and ship an extract are here.
