Villeneuve Queensland Australia Survey

Posted by chas678 on 26 September 2011 in English.

Completed a survey and mapping around Villeneuve in Queensland, Australia, (at the top of Lake Somerset near Woodford). This took a lot more time to survey than I thought for some reason, in fact two visits before it was done. The existing maps of the area are very poor, (Whereis.com, Google etc), and seem to be based of the DCDB cadastral layer from the State Government, which is downright wrong in a lot of places. Because of this the OSM map of this area is now definitely the most accurate!

The Stanley River, Delaney Creek, Sandy Creek and Stoney Creek waterways are still not mapped very well; although there is some hires Bing imagery to work from, the ABS2006 admin area boundaries follow the watercourses around here quite faithfully, and I'm a little hesitant to mess with the admin boundary stuff... Anyone want a crack at it?
