Unit of competency

Modification History

Release 1

This version first released with CPP Property Services Training Package Release 12.0.

This unit supersedes and is equivalent to CPPSIS3011 Produce basic maps.

Application

This unit specifies the skills and knowledge required to use mapping software, such as geographic information system (GIS) functionality, to produce a basic map. It includes activities to prepare and process basic spatial data and produce a basic map that includes simple marginal information and content.

This unit is suitable for surveying or spatial information services assistants working under supervision. They use cognitive, technical and communication skills to select and apply a range of methods, tools, materials and information to complete routine activities and provide solutions to predictable and sometimes unpredictable problems.

All work must be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, in accordance with relevant state/territory regulations that govern surveying work, as well as work health and safety (WHS) legislation and regulations that apply to the workplace.

Cadastral surveying must be undertaken under the supervision of a registered surveyor. Users must check with the relevant regulatory state/territory authority before delivery.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Assessment requirements

Modification History

Release 1

This version first released with CPP Property Services Training Package Release 12.0.

This unit supersedes and is equivalent to CPPSIS3011 Produce basic maps.

Performance Evidence

To demonstrate competency a candidate must meet the elements and performance criteria of this unit by using suitable software and spatial data retrieved from internal sources to produce two basic maps, each containing:

  • two artificial features and two natural features with appropriate symbology
  • at least one dataset containing points, lines and polygons
  • simple marginal information, including:
  • data sources
  • coordinate reference system
  • legend
  • north point
  • scale.

While producing the above basic maps, the candidate must:

  • set scale
  • change symbology
  • use simple point, line and polygon data
  • label features
  • symbolise features by attributes.

Knowledge Evidence

To be competent in this unit a candidate must demonstrate knowledge of:

  • different types of maps, including topographical maps, thematic maps, and survey maps
  • use of points, lines and polygons to portray different geographic features
  • typical scales, spatial referencing systems and symbology used on different types of maps
  • functions of mapping software used for making basic maps
  • work health and safety (WHS) for using screen-based equipment.

Assessment Conditions

Assessors must satisfy the requirements for assessors contained in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting where these skills and knowledge would be performed.

Candidates must have access to:

  • computers and software relevant to basic map production.
