2009-10 Victorian State Wide Rivers LiDAR Project - Wimmera CMA

project: cip09-2009-10_isc_rivers_wcma
River condition in Victoria is assessed every 5 years using the Index of Stream Condition (ISC). The Department of Environment and Primary Industries (DEPI) has developed a methodology to assess components of the ISC using remote sensing techniques, specifically LIDAR and aerial photography. As such, a State Wide mapping project was undertaken in 2009-12 to accurately map the riparian vegetation and physical form components (metrics) of the ISC using LiDAR and imagery data. Remote sensing data collected includes 15cm true colour infra-red aerial photography and four return multi-pulse LiDAR data. These were used to derive a range of standard and non-standard physical form and riparian vegetation raster datasets. The project was managed on a CMA by CMA basis with all source and derived datasets being organised this way. In addition to the remote sensing and derived raster products, a set of vector products and tabular data has also been generated. These further represent and define the physical form and riparian characteristics of the ISC rivers and contain the ISC scoring data.
