More Information
PSMA’s CadLite dataset provides a spatial representation of millions of legal land parcels across Australia. CadLite draws on state and territory data to provide a seamless national database of cadastral boundaries, excluding easements and road drainage easements. CadLite also identifies the three relationships that exist between a property and a cadastral parcel:
- One cadastral parcel is equal to one property.
- Many cadastral parcels make up one property.
- One cadastral parcel contains many properties.
CadLite’s graphical index of digital cadastral boundaries also includes an identifier for cross-referencing between jurisdictional land titles and other geographic and land administrative data.
What is this dataset used for?


Efficient work planning – so infrastructure and utility service providers can understand the location and layout of a land parcel to help decide how best to deploy a work team.


Informed site selection – so organisations can select appropriate sites for services, such as retail or community service centres, Census analysis, Centrelink support, health information, transport and regional development.


Land use changes – for examining urbanisation changes to provide the spatial representation of land ownership types for cadastral parcels, and show changes in land use.
