Purpose

PARKRES is a spatial representation of the Parks and Reserves Information Management System (PRIMS). This database lists Parks and Conservation Reserves under the policy control of the DELWP Land Management Policy Branch. These include areas scheduled under the National Parks Act 1975, Nature Conservation Reserves, Natural Features Reserves, Regional Parks, Phillip Island Nature Park, Historic & Cultural Features Reserves, and Metropolitan Open Space Parks. Many of these areas are managed by Parks Victoria under a management agreement between the Minister for Environment and the Parks Victoria Board. PRIMS and PARKRES define the areas covered by this agreement. This spatial dataset is updated quarterly, so it is a snapshot of what is in the parks and reserves system at that time. For more up-to-date information about a park or reserve refer to PRIMS. In November 2019 PRIMS was replaced by Landfolio. PARKRES reflects the information represented in Landfolio.

Supplemental Information

History: Refer to metadata for PLM25 and PK_PARKRES this datasets precussor. Relationship to other Datasets: PLM25, VMPROP_PARCEL_CROWN_APPROVED, PRIMS (text bsed business application) Current Design Issues: Polygons showing boundaries of areas scheduled under the National Parks Act 1975 are a guide only. The actual boundaries are defined by the linework and annotations on the certified (legal) plan, and by additional notes in the Act. The legal plans are available from the Landata web site from the Central Plan Office. Use of this layer is currently limited to display, query and some spatial analysis work since the data does not have a persistent unique identifier. This is due to the complexity associated with sourcing the spatial data from a variety of sources. This should be taken into consideration by those intending to integrate PARKRES with applications and or building processes around it.
