Welcome to DEMIRS Data and Software Centre

 

The Data and Software Centre lets you download state-wide spatial datasets, geology series map data, resources such as Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DEMIRS) software (including user guides and videos where available), and documentation on map services provided by DEMIRS.

Each dataset compressed file contains the following: 

To view the metadata statement, select the icon next to the dataset name. 

To facilitate automated downloading of dynamic datasets, the following documents contain URLs to assist in this process. 

URL document - GDA2020        URL document - GDA1994 


Type a keyword in the search tool on the right to search for specific datasets in a specific coordinate system. 

Nightly process to update dynamic datasets is scheduled to be completed by approximately 3am following each business day.


What’s changing?
 
On 17th June 2022, the Data and Software Centre is moving to the Cloud which will mean a smoother, faster, productive and more secure service. The URL for DASC will change to https://dasc.dmirs.wa.gov.au  
We recommend you read and follow the below bullet points to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible. 
 

  • Any scripts or processes that have been created to access DASC files via DASC or Geoview will need to be updated with the new URLs.
  • If you have saved a DASC file (even if it is via Geoview) or the DASC homepage as a favourite or shortcut, please resave these links and bookmarks with the new URL so you can always find the pages.
  • Based on your browser setting you may experience DASC files being saved in the Downloads folder on your computer, please make sure you check the Downloads folder if you do not see the file open in a new window or appear as a pop-up download.
