Vegetation Cover for metropolitan Melbourne 2014
dataset:
VEGETATION_COVER_2014
This dataset contains vegetation features represented by polygons as at 2014. Each polygon is based on ABS mesh blocks which have been subdivided by Vicmap property road casement polygons.
It's part of a collection of data from Plan Melbourne Action 91 initiative also referred to as Cooling & Greening or Vegetation and Urban heat mapping

Description
- Title
- Vegetation Cover for metropolitan Melbourne 2014
- Alternate title
- VEGETATION_COVER_2014
- Purpose
- This dataset has been produced to monitor the vegetation status of metro Melbourne region. The modified mesh block geography will assist users to perform spatial analysis to support policy and local decision making. There are many analytics within the data to provide information on the vegetation height, area and land use. A full list of data attributes are in the attached spreadsheet. An associated dataset on heat mapping, (heat vulnerability index) has been produced for the same time period. Search for heat mapping in Spatial Datamart or data.vic.gov.au.

- Statement
- Dataset Source: The features are derived from the 2016 ABS mesh block data and Vicmap road casement polygons, aerial photography and Near-Infrared (NIR) imagery as at 2014. Dataset Originality: Primary & Derived

Quality
Attribute Quality
- Comments
- Indicative photogrammetric results: accuracy in easting, northing and height = 0.3m, 0.3m, and 0.3m. Measures trees, shrubs and grasses. Omission errors include dead grasses, grasses occluded by trees, and possibly deciduous trees at the time of data capture. Indicative overall accuracy for vegetation cover is better than 90% as estimated from 3 regions repeated for 2 dates to provide 6 estimates. Range from regions 90-98%.
Positional Accuracy
- Comments
- Geometry equivalent to the source 2016 ABS Mesh Block dataset and Vicmap property road casement polygons.
Conceptual Consistency
- Comments
- Due to boundary alignment issues between Mesh Blocks and road casement, there are small overlaps in geometry for some road segments. These will be rectified in a future release of this data. There is no significant impact on the validity of results.
Missing Data
- Comments
