Hunting Area Dataset Permitted Duck Hunting

dataset: hunt25_duck
This dataset will be obsolete as at 15/01/2026 and has been replaced by hunt25_duck_view. This hunting area dataset depicting areas where Duck hunting is permitted, have boundaries largely derived from the PLM25 dataset which are supplemented with additional boundaries based on legislative restrictions on hunting. Dataset identifies the conditions under which hunting of given Game and Pest animal groups and species is permitted. The rules used to produce this produce were developed by the legislation unit with the Land Management Division of the Department of Environment , Land, Water and Planning in consultation with the Game Management Authority, VicPolice, Parks Victoria and other relevant government authorities. These rules are based on requirements in the Forest Act, National Park Act, Crown land (Reserve) Act, Land Act, Wildlife Act. Note : Hunters are personally responsible for acting in accordance with the Firearms Act 1996 (including informing themselves about any prohibited locations within the areas shown on this map) and other relevant laws; obtaining the required hunting licence; and for hunting only within season.

Missing Data
State of Victoria for Crown land contained in PLM25 Completeness Verification: Change data between versions is reviewed and assessed to determine if business rules are working correctly. The first public version is to undergo internal review (application of the rules, spatial result) by DELWP (EECC and FFR). 
Positional Accuracy
Derived from various Vicmap datasets 
 

Lineage

Description
The dataset is derived using an automated process managed by DELWP that applied a set of business rules using a range or corporate and business datasets. 
Statement
Dataset Source: Derived using PLM25 dataset as the primary source, where rules are applied based on public land categories, and where these initial rules are supplemented with additional VSDL datasets (including PLM25_overlay and CL_Tenure) and business datasets and tables (including Wildlife Game Regulation and National Park Regulation Schedule information). Dataset Originality: Derived
