Queensland basemap topographic web service

The Queensland basemap topographic web service is designed for use as a background reference map and topographic product suitable for on-demand mapping. It is a full colour traditional topographic style map similar to hardcopy topographic maps. The service is based on data acquired and collated by the Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy, Queensland for more than thirty years. Map cache tiles are created for the following scales: 1:18,056, 1:36,112, 1:72,224, 1:144,448, 1:288,895, 1:577,791, 1:1,155,581, 1:2,311,162, 1:4,622,324, 1:9,244,649, 1:18,489,298 and 1:36,978,595, and the tiles can be exported for offline use in application that support that functionality. The map cache will be refreshed periodically to show updated data.
