The LIST Crown Licences data set holds spatial areas of land under a current licence from the Crown within the State of Tasmania. Crown Licences are administered by the Property Services Branch of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment. Licences are normally renewed annually but access licences may be for a fixed term. Licences do not give exclusive possession of Crown Land. LIST Crown Licences are a separate layer managed by PWS Property Services and are no longer managed as part of the LIST Cadastral Area. This may result in misalignment with the LIST Cadastral Parcels dataset.

Crown Licence information has been obtained from Property Services from electronic records of all current licences. Boundaries and attributes have been determined by reference to diagrams in property files and have been positioned where possible using underlying cadastral boundaries, aerial photography and digital topographic information. In cases where this has not been possible, licence boundaries have been positioned with references to sketches and diagrams within the property files.

Position Accuracy: Accuracy may vary as positions of many Crown Licences were captured from sketches and best positioned to detail however accuracy is progressively being upgraded from rectified aerial imagery. Attribute Accuracy: It is estimated that not less that 99% of all attributes are correct. Logical Consistency: Crown Licences are closed polygons and are attributed with an Agreement Id (AGR_ID) which is the identifier for a licence within the Property Services CREST database. Other attributes include the Property Identifier (PID) where available. Completeness: Crown Licences are complete.
