Geoscape delivers location data on demand, with the detail you need. It describes Australia’s complex cities, regional centres and rural communities as they change - packaged and ready-to-use, from national data to a small area of interest. Make better sense of the world.
New technologies enable people to do things with location data they couldn’t do before.
Geoscape delivers the power of location to every business, enabling you to make better sense of the world.
Geoscape data describes Australia’s economically important infrastructure – buildings, real estate, transport networks and more – and it’s kept up to date as the nation changes.
Whether you need data on addresses, buildings, solar panels, land parcels, roads, railways or something else, we make it easy to access.
And we’ll get as granular as you need – from national data to a small area of interest.
Geoscape location data is reliable, affordable and accessible. It powers deeper analysis and smarter processes for noise modelling, urban planning, property development, emergency management, telecommunications, government service delivery and more.
It also enables data producers to reach data-hungry enterprises, turning their location data into a revenue stream, or a powerhouse for public good.
Geoscape is built on the expertise Australian businesses and governments have relied on for decades. It’s new, but not born yesterday.
Geoscape makes location data accessible. Request your choice of data attributes and geographical area or subscribe to an API plan. If you need an off-the-shelf or bespoke location-based solution, one of our partners can help. Get the data you need, when you need it.
In a connected and mobile world, location data must be reliable, affordable and accessible. That places responsibility on suppliers of location data and those who build solutions around it.
Geoscape location data covers the entire Australian continent – all 7.6 million square kilometres. It’s easy to request the data attributes you need for the geographical area you’re interested in, for each project you have. We’ll clip it and send it on demand.
For location data on a transactional basis at speed, subscribe to a tiered API plan via the Geoscape self-service Developer Portal.

Geoscape location APIs enable software developers to bring authoritative location intelligence to web-enabled business processes and applications, and create new revenue streams. Build location intelligence into your apps, because everything happens somewhere.
Geoscape location APIs underpin an ever-expanding range of consumer applications, business processes and government services.
They provide sustainable access to authoritative national location data and empower our developer community to build applications that connect people and place.
Whether you need address verification, with coordinates of latitude and longitude, electorate, local government area, ABS statistical area or remoteness classification… or you need buildings at an address, with building attributes, planning zone, solar panels or swimming pools, we make it easy to access.
The Geoscape Developer Portal enables self-service subscription to tiered plans that entitle you to a certain number of transactions per month across all our APIs, with volume discounting applied at higher tiers.
Geoscape APIs enable location data to feature in all systems development, while shielding the user from the complexity of managing the data and ensuring data currency.
Build location intelligence into your apps. Start small and scale.

GHD developed noise models for Australian Industrial Energy to identify areas that would be affected by the proposed Port Kembla Gas Terminal and estimates using Geoscape cut the cost of producing a noise model by at least 50 per cent.
Location intelligence enables businesses to identify, locate and communicate with customers. Pitney Bowes understands technology is a springboard to business growth and incorporated Geoscape® data into GeoVision™ to help clients navigate global commerce with precision and accuracy and build deeper, more profitable relationships with their customers.
Sensing Value seamlessly combined Geoscape data, including building footprints, heights, trees and surface cover, with other data in digital city models to revolutionise regulatory development. It enables local councils to simulate how land use planning decisions will affect the future functioning of Launceston.
“The data is ready to go. We don’t need to do any manual adjustments. Historically, we had to manually assign heights and conduct spatial filtering to ensure data was up to the standard needed for the modelling. Now we have it all in one package – with heights, addresses, zones and categories all part of the one shapefile. And this allows us to insert the data directly into the model.”
“Having access to nation-wide data about the built environment is revolutionary. It hasn’t been available before and is quite a game changer.”
“Geoscape is one of our base layers of data – it’s accurate, foundational data providing analytical capabilities for scenario modelling. No other data offers that level of detail, particularly for regional or semi-rural areas.”
