Geographic bounding box:
The bounding box encloses the maximum extents of the dataset. There may be voids or gaps within the bounding box, depending on the defined coverage of the dataset. Outer bounding rectangle as Latitude/Longitude coordinates based on the WGS84 datum (expressed as both Degrees Minutes Seconds and as decimal Degrees):
- North bounding latitude: 33 30 00.0 S (-33.5)
- South bounding latitude: 34 30 00.0 S (-34.5)
- East bounding longitude: 151 30 00.0 E (151.5)
- West bounding longitude: 150 30 00.0 E (150.5)
Lineage:
Information collected under statutory requirements from landfill operators. Information from Councils for domestic kerbside recycling.
Positional accuracy:
Variable
Attribute accuracy:
Values are used for calculating levies. Sanctions may be applied if incorrect.
Logical consistency:
Values are used for calculating levies. Sanctions may be applied if incorrect.
Completeness:
There is a 60 day period for facilities to submit their forms (so lag of six months in release) as some operators are behind in submitting forms and some operator errors are made.
