  Description:
  Abstract:
  
  As part of the cross border management between South Australia and Victoria, zones have been set up either side of the state borders. These borders zones are also referred to as the 20 kilometer zones and are divided horizontally. The zones extend 20 kilometers either side of the state border and extend from the souhern coastline up to the River Murray. This layer contains only the South Australian zones. This layer will mainly be used for administration purposes for water licensing. While this dataset was created in June 1998, the age of the zones is unknown and probably date back to early period of development of the South Australian/Victorian border agreement on groundwater.

  Data_Quality:
  Lineage:
  At the time that this dataset was created, the only valid descriptions of the zones was a registered plan in the Lands Titles Office (GR 370/1985). The following was known regarding the coordinates of the zones: the zones are 20 km wide, the horizontal differentiation of the zones was based upon 15 minutes of longitide. This information was combined with existing linework for the coastline and River Murray to create a new digital copy of the border agreement zones. The accuracy of these assumptions and the corresponding dataset has never been investigated.
  Positional Accuracy:
  While both the River Murray and coastline were defined from base state coverages, the remainder of the linework is based on coordinates and should therefore be quite precise. With the state base data being the limiting factor for spatial accuracy, a figure of <50m is estimated.
  Attribute Accuracy:
  100%
  Logical Consistency:
  The dataset is topologically correct.
  Completeness:
  The dataset is complete and is not expected to require further modifications.
