SD to LGA mapping possible values and rules

The data maps the NDIA service districts to the ABS classified Local Government Areas (LGA). Multiple
LGA’s are grouped together to define one NDIA service district. The LGA’s are based on 2011
geographical boundaries. This mapping will allow aggregation of external reports generated by other
organisations to NDIA service districts.
The geographical boundaries are sourced from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) website. ABS
standards have not been independently verified for accuracy. For more information, visit this link: ABS
