The shapefiles were loaded into a geodatabase and the individual state and territory feature classes have been merged into a single national coverage. This data has then been projected to WGS 1984 Web Mercator (auxiliary sphere).The data was then clipped to the ABS States and Territories dataset. Gaps between the original data and the ABS States and Territories have been filled in, split into smaller parts and merged into the closest polygon from the original data if touching or very close to the original polygons, otherwise they have been assigned "Unincorporated" in LGA_NAME.The national coverage has been corrected to the ABS state and territory boundaries. The coastline has been clipped to the ABS coastline.Data Dictionary:Local Government Areas (LGA) AttributionAttribute NameDescriptionLG_PLY_PIDUnique persistent identifier for the LGA polygon.LGA_PIDPersistent identifier for the LGA.DT_CREATEThe date the record is first introduced to the Geoscape product.LGA_NAMEThe name of the LGA.ABB_NAMEThe abbreviated LGA name.STATEThe abbreviated name of the State or Territory that the LGA spatially resides within.Domain ValuesSTATEDomain ValueDescriptionNSWThe data is located within the state of New South Wales.NTThe data is located within the Northern Territory.OTThe data is located within the Other Territories classification.
