Preparing your own data

MCAS-S users may create projects using their own input data layers. Pre-processing using a proprietary GIS is usually required to ensure data meet the requirements for MCAS-S version 4.

The MCAS-S user guide is the best place to start. 

Download instructions to convert data for use in MCAS-S:

  • Data conversion for MCAS-S v3 using ArcGIS 10 PDF [355 KB]
  • Data conversion for MCAS-S (Geo) PDF [289 KB]

To get started with MCAS-S version 4 download the sample project 'Where to live' or get started with the Quickstart guide.

For a larger selection of layers visit the Australian national map layers web page.
