Title: Vicmap Lite - Postcode Polygon - 1:250,000 to 1:5,000,000
Anzlic ID: ANZVI0803003521
Custodian:
Abstract:
This layer is part of Vicmap Lite and contains polygon features delineating postcode areas. Vicmap Lite datasets are suited for use between scales of 1: 250,000 and 1 : 5 million.  The polygons were sourced from Vicmap Admin. The level of attribute information and the number of vertices has been simplified to suit the 1: 250,000  - 1 : 5 million scale range. The concept of a Scale Use Code has been introduced to help control the level of detail displayed.

Positional Accuracy:
The source line work was generalised using an enhanced Douglas and Peucker simplification algorithm. The algorithm keeps so-called critical points that depict the essential shape of a line and removes all other points. The algorithm connects the end nodes of an arc with a "trend line". The distance of each vertex to the trend line is measured perpendicularly. Vertices closer to the line than the tolerance are eliminated. A 80m tolerance was used on this dataset
