Vicmap Lite - Forest Polygon - 1:2,000,000 to 1:5,000,000

dataset: VMLITE_FOREST_SU2
This layer is part of Vicmap Lite and contains polygon features delineating forested areas. This Vicmap Lite dataset is suited for use between scales of 1: 2 million and 1 : 5 million. The polygons were sourced from TREE100. The level of attribute information, the number of features and the number of vertices has been simplified to suit the 1: 2 million - 1 : 5 million scale range. The concept of a Scale Use Code has been introduced to help control the level of detail displayed. THIS DATASET WAS LAST UPDATED IN AUGUST 2008

Statement
Dataset Source: Derivation of this dataset uses 2000 ha as the minimum polygon size and 5000 m as the generalize weed tolerance. Processing details are defined in the Arc/Info aml tree100_simple.aml as follows: drop source cover items that may prevent dissolve working properly remove undersize tree cover polygons in source cover populate undersize hole polygons with a present value dissolve out undersize holes generalize remaining features populate undersize hole polygons created by the generalize with a present value populate large orphan tree cover polygons created by the generalize with a present value dissolve out undersize holes remove any remaining undersize tree cover polygons created by the generalize dissolve out any undersize holes within holes remove any label points in the world poly populate large orphan tree polygons created by the generalize with a present value Dataset Originality: Derived 
Description
Collection Method: Derived from source 
Description
Level of detail reduced to suit 1:2 million - 1:5 million scale range. Redundant attributes removed, Scale Use Code attribute added and populated.

Comments
The source line work was generalised using a 5000m weed tolerance. 
Conceptual Consistency
Comments
Areas less than 2000 ha that formed holes in the tree cover have been coded 'P' (present) and then dissolved out.
