Aboriginal Heritage Information Management System

The NPWS maintains the Aboriginal Heritage Information Management System (AHIMS). AHIMS includes:

• a database and recording cards for all Aboriginal objects, Aboriginal places and other Aboriginal heritage values in NSW that have been reported to the NPWS
• a database index of archaeological reports and a library of these reports.

AHIMS replaced the previous NSW Aboriginal Site Register.
