Consiliul Patrimoniului Australian (Australian Heritage Council) a publicat şi întreţine în mod current mai multe seturi de date geo-referenţiate dedicate patrimoniului australian, incluzând: World Heritage List, National Heritage List, Commonwealth Heritage List, Australian National Shipwreck Database. Primele trei pot fi vizualizate ca teme distincte în cadrul Hărţii Naţionale a Australiei (The National Map of Australia). Situaţia actuală: a) toate nivelurile de implementare, de la local la naţional, b) tehnologia GIS este inclusă în cadrul infrastructurii informatice naţionale, c) există aplicaţii GIS publice, d) domenii de aplicare: administrarea patrimoniului, arheologie, comunităţile aborigine.
