Homesteads may be filtered for cartographic representation based on the rules set out for data capture at 1:250 000 in Appendix C. Operational Homesteads will have precedence over Abandoned Homesteads. In addition, Homesteads will take precedence over buildings with a function of 'Dwelling' or 'Other Or Unknown Function'.

If black type falls unavoidably over the building symbol, the feature's symbol attribute will be 'Polygon No Draw.

Buildings other than homesteads will be named or labelled where they have a distinctive function, eg. 'factory', 'sawmill', 'Wikipin Agricultural College', or where they were labelled on the latest previous edition map.

Abandoned homesteads will be labelled 'abandoned'.

When a Landmark Area and Ruin to Scale are adjacent then the ruin boundary symbology should take precedence. When a Landmark Area or Ruin to Scale is adjacent to an operational building then the symbology for Landmark Area or Ruin to Scale should take precedence.

Buildings will be masked by Built Up Area.

Operational homesteads that fail the rules for inclusion as Homestead feature type may still be shown as unnamed buildings or Dwellings. Abandoned homesteads will be named in a similar manner to the method of capture for Homestead feature type in reference to Appendix C. (i.e In densely settled areas Homesteads are not captured unless considered significant (e.g. historical), therefore buildings of classification 'Abandoned Homestead' should not be named in densely settled regions unless they are also considered significant).

General - All Scales

A Built Up Area will be representative of all buildings which are set out on street patterns and which are too close to be shown using individual symbols at map scale.

The boundaries of a Built Up Area should be defined with consideration to the surrounding landscape and location in Australia (e.g. middle of the Northern Territory versus older suburbs in a capital city versus newer suburbs in a fast growing satellite town)

The following sentence is a guideline and should be used with consideration to the rules noted above, the definition of Built Up Area and examples shown in Appendix U Imagery Interpretation Guide (Built Up Area Delineation):
In General, Built Up Area should consist of the majority of land parcels being less than 3600 sq m and man-made structures (e.g pools, homes, garages, etc) should occupy greater than approximately 15 percent of the land parcel.

Built Up Area names will be as listed for the census. Where names have been combined for the census (eg hyphenated) they will be combined unless separate populations are given for the components in which case the components will be named separately.

Names of suburbs of a city or town will be included as features with the code Place Name.

In some instances, parts or suburbs of a town or city may be split from the main body of the Built Up Area by open land or a double sided stream, in which case the separate Built Up Area polygons will carry the same name, eg 'Melbourne' which may be attached to a number of Built Up Area polygon features.

Areas of open space which are not Recreation Areas and have an area greater than the minimum size for a defined hole (see Section 3 5.18 for more details) will be excluded from the built-up area.

Unless they are disconnected sections of a larger area, Built Up Areas less than minimum size criteria for capture/inclusion will be represented by a featuretype Place Name or Populated Place. Where Built Up Areas are broken into disconnected sections each with identical attributes, the minimum size criteria for capture/inclusion will be based on the sum total of its component parts. The parts will not be merged to form a multi-part polygon but remain as separate sections.

When assigning Upperscale values the following will apply:

• For Upperscale of 250 000 and larger scales (smaller areas) the eligibility of a Built Up Area will be based on the minimum size criteria for map representation. If the Built Up Area is broken into disconnected sections each with identical attributes, the minimum size criteria for map representation will be based on the sum total of its component parts.
• For Upperscale of 1 000 000 the population of the Built Up Area must be 5000 or greater persons. Upperscale assignment will not be based on a map representation size criterion.
• For Upperscale of 2 500 000 the population of the Built Up Area must be 50 000 or greater persons. Upperscale assignment will not be based on a map representation size criterion.
• For Upperscale of 5 000 000 the population of the Built Up Area must be 100 000 or greater persons. Upperscale assignment will not be based on a map representation size criterion.

General - All Scales

Built Up Area features cannot overlap each other.

A Built Up Area (feature class) edge must be coincident with the following features where it abuts (shares a cadastral boundary with) them in reality;
Another Built Up Area edge (feature type polygon)

BuildingAreas (feature class) can not cross the edge of a Built Up Area.

For every unique Built Up Area name a corresponding feature must exist in either the Populated Place or Place Name feature types (dependant on population) of the same name. Only one Populated Place or Place Name feature type entity should exist to correlate to a Built Up Area which is broken into disconnected sections each with identical attributes.

Recreation Areas (feature class), Cemetery Area, Waste Management Area, Lake, WatercourseAreas (feature class), Canal Area, Mangrove, Reservoirs (feature class), Land Subject to Inundation and Sea features.

The upperscaling of road features is dependant on there relationship to Built Up Area. Dual carriageways, highways/principal roads and secondary roads will be shown through Built-up areas. The selection of minor roads within Built Up Area varies according to scale. (See Roads)

For every unique Built Up Area name a corresponding feature must exist in either the Populated Place or Place Name feature types (dependant on population) of the same name. Only one Populated Place or Place Name feature type entity should exist to correlate to a Built Up Area which is broken into disconnected sections each with identical attributes.

General - All Scales

Built Up Areas will be named.

Built Up Areas will mask contours, powerlines and pipelines.

Buildings will be masked by Built Up Area.

Built Up Areas represented on map products must reflect the minimum size criteria for defined holes at the applicable scale.

Wherever possible annotation should be stored using the subclasses indicated under AnnotationClassID. Annotation stored as inline text should be kept to a minimum.

Type for large polygons and long linear features may be held in an annotation feature for each word to allow for spacing and differences in orientation, see Section 2 chapter 4.

Annotation should not contain any HTML tags within the blob element, nor should it contain any special characters.

Editing and placement of Annotation should be conducted in the appropriate MGA 1994 zone to ensure the spatial position of type on the map face can be correctly represented.

Annotation should only occur where the associated feature either has a sufficient dimension size or Upperscale value to be shown at 1:100 000 scale or a smaller scale/larger extent (eg 1:250 000, 1:1 000 000)

General - All Scales

Populated places have a population of 200 or more. All populated places in the supplied Census database clip will be included as populated place localities. The names of populated places will be as named for the census. Where names have been combined for the census (eg hyphenated) they will be combined unless separate populations are given for the components in which case the components will be named separately.

The feature point for a populated place will be positioned coincident with a node or vertex on the road network unless there is no road within 250 metres of the Built Up Area associated with the populated place. If necessary, a vertex will be created on the road coincident with the locality populated place feature. For populated places with a population over 20 000 the point should be placed as near as possible on the road network to the location of the central post office.

Populated places will be named.

The name of some populated places may appear two or three times in the NTDB eg. if there is also a Railway Station or a Built Up Area polygon of the same name.

General - All Scales

Populated places will not be symbolised on the map if they fall within a Built Up Area but will have symbol 420 when no Built Up Area polygon exists.

For every unique Built Up Area name a corresponding feature must exist in either the Populated Place or Place Name feature types (dependant on population) of the same name. Only one Populated Place or Place Name feature type entity should exist to correlate to a Built Up Area which is broken into disconnected sections each with identical attributes.
