2020 Australian Valuation Property Classification Codes (AVPCC)

dataset: AVPCC2020
Australian Valuation Property Classification Codes The Australian Valuation Property Classification Code (AVPCC) is a classification system that ascribes a code to land, based on its existing use. The AVPCC (in addition to Site Value, Capital Improved Value and Net Annual Value) forms part of every valuation in accordance with the Valuation of Land Act 1960 (Act). The AVPCC is treated as part of the valuation in force; therefore, any change to an AVPCC that gives rise to a change in the land use classification (for the purposes of the Fire Services Property Levy) can only be made pursuant to the supplementary valuation or objection provisions of the Act. The national implementation of such codes is seen as assisting in the identification and comparison of land valued for rating, taxing and levy purposes throughout Australia. In Victoria it enables valuers to identify various land uses and group them for comparison purposes ¿ in addition to their property attributes ¿ to enable the making of the valuation. It also creates the ability to map and analyse valuation data in accordance with an AVPCC. The AVPCC is a code up to four digits intended to describe a land use based on a hierarchical code system represented by a primary, secondary and tertiary classification. Code hierarchy The codes are allocated upon consideration of the following criteria: Primary code or first digit Relates to the functional dimension of the property. Function refers to the economic function or type of industry using the land. The industry or economic function may often be closely associated with land use zoning. Secondary code or second digit The secondary code or second digit relates to the activity dimension of the property. The activity refers to the actual use of the land based on what takes place in physical or observable terms. Tertiary code or third digit The tertiary code or third digit relates to the structural dimension of the property. Structure refers to the type of buildings or improvements on the land. This embodies the utility of the space (in a building) or land (without buildings). This may be defined by a recent planning or building permit and/or the building/improvements situated thereon. In an attempt to further define some uses, some tertiary codes have sub-groups with a decimal place in the code. The AVPCC best capturing the predominant use by applying the method prescribed above is recommended. The codes are not meant to describe the value drivers of the land such as size, age or other factors such as ownership or property characteristics. The AVPCC is intended first and foremost as a simple way of assigning a land use category that best translates to the codes. Accompanying descriptors to better define the most appropriate AVPCC for valuers have been provided in the 2020 Valuation Best Practice Specifications Guidelines. The AVPCC are grouped into the following categories, by primary code: - Residential - Commercial - Industrial - Extractive Industries - Primary Production - Infrastructure And Utilities - Community Services - Sport, Heritage and Culture - National parks, conservation areas, forest reserves and natural water reserves This dataset contains polygon features representing Victoria's properties and their associated property classification codes as defined by the Valuer General, Valuation Best Practice https://www.propertyandlandtitles.vic.gov.au/valuation/council-valuations Vicmap Address is jointly maintained with Vicmap Property (VMPROP), with every address relating to a VMPROP record, joined through a property_pfi link and Properties relating to a valuation assessment by Property Number and municipality.

The information contained within the table is from a combination of source materials. AVPCC and Address information is sourced from municipal council records and Valuer General Victoria valuation datasets. The accuracy to which the data within the tables align with the source materials used to compile them is estimated to be within a 5% error margin.
