Abstract 

This dataset contains a list of Australian government domains (dedicated to the general population and indigenous people of Australia) collected through our research. We queried these domains to retrieve their NS records (labeled as NS_LVL1) and identified the DNS provider companies using Whois. Subsequently, we queried the NS_LVL1 domains to obtain their name servers (labeled as NS_LVL2) and determined their provider names. Using the list of DNS providers in Australia, we then used IP location to find the geolocation of these DNS providers.
