Post at Etwas Loft: Environment Programs – Budget 2014 – ARENA’s axing
Ketan Josh published a post with a couple of Datawrapper enabled graphs. It’s worth a look for how well a couple of well placed graphs can help communicate a message, in this case, what’s happening to the funding for environment related programs.

Reference table: #1 – Linking Federal Electorates to Postcodes
You’ve downloaded some fantastic data from, say, Data.gov.au and it is by post-code and you’d like to map to Federal Electorate. I’ve found two sources for this information:
- A download from the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) website; and
- Table 2 – Postcodes by electoral division from the Australian Parliament House (APH) website.
I think the AEC is a more up-to-date resource as it takes into account any electoral boundary changes, however if it is unavailable (as it seems to be at the time of writing), you can fall back on the one from the APH source.
If you do use AEC data please note the licensing requirements (such as here).

The structure and nature of this site will be changing quite a bit over coming days.
