Location of all current Production Licence Applications issued under the Petroleum Act, 2000 for the regulated resource or commodity of geothermal. Production Licences provide exclusive tenure rights to produce for the regulated resource or commodity of geothermal for an unlimited term (usually 21 years). Comment is sought on applications for Production Licences from numerous sources before granting. Production programs are subject to strict environmental and heritage conditions.

      Source Data History: Production Licence Application boundaries were sourced from the official Petroleum Register licence application documents. Licence application boundaries are legally defined to follow lines of latitude and longitude, based on GDA94.
      
      Processing Steps:Coordinates entered by keyboard from licence application documents. Linework cleaned to remove duplicate arcs. Data adjusted for accurate state border and coastline. Where appropriate cadastral parcels removed from licence application polygons. Associated attribute data also captured from licence application documents.
      Positional accuracy:Most boundary locations are constructed from lines of latitude and longitude, hence are scale independent. The accuracy of other boundaries is dependent upon the source, eg. state border, coastline, cadastre.
      Attribute accuracy:Validation checks are performed periodically, resulting in an estimated 90% accuracy.
      Logical consistency:The dataset contains no overshoots, undershoots or duplicate lines. All polygons representing licence applications contain only one label.
