10.14 Plan portrayal

The portrayal of spatial information shall preserve the meaning and status of the underlying objects.

A controlled land plan shall, as applicable, show:

title and purpose;

plan, sheet and version identifiers;

issue status and date;

geographic coverage;

north indication;

scale or statement that the plan is not to scale;

scale bar where meaningful;

legend;

requirement boundary;

relevant land or derived parcel identifiers;

distinction between requirement classes or right classes;

base mapping attribution and date;

CRS or grid information where required;

continuation and match-line information;

inset or location information;

copyright, licence and use limitations; and

approval status.

Line width, offset, colour, shading, hatching and labelling shall be selected so that the intended boundary and object remain unambiguous at the intended output size and in any required monochrome or accessible form.

Map scale shall be selected by reference to legibility, source accuracy, extent and procedural requirements. This document does not prescribe a universal scale.
