Status

Completed  

Purpose

This line layer is for cartographic use and for determining broad categories of boundary types, eg Murray River, coastline, state border. The polygon layer LF_DISTRICT is the key layer for departmental activities that require Fire District Boundaries.

Supplemental Information

History: The forest management boundaries coverages (FORMB100) were copied, and the relevant arcs that formed fire district boundaries were highlighted and put into FIREDIST100. Roughly 80% of FIREDIST100 arcs came from FORMB100. The remainder of the arcs were copied from ROAD100, HYDRO100, LANDMMT100 and LGA100. There were also a few arcs that were digitised from the maps provided by Fire Suppression Section. Minimal processing was performed on FIREDIST100. Clean was avoided at all costs. (Greg Esnouf / Lisa Kollmorgan , Fire Suppression Section Hugo Caro, NRS) Relationship to other Datasets: The layer FIREDIST100 has been derived from ROAD100, HYDRO100, LANDMMT100, LGA100 and FORMB100 layers. Though a large percentage (~80%) of the fire district boundaries come from the forest management boundary coverages (FORMB100), if the forest management boundaries alter this will not require a subsequent edit FIREDIST100 Current Design Issues: This layer indicates boundaries of the Fire Districts.

Lineage

Description

Clean up of former boundaries to fix errors in the West and merging of two sets of two boundaries in the East. 

Statement

Dataset Source: Maps detailing the fire district boundaries were provided by Fire Suppression Section of Fire management Branch. If the boundary follows a stream, road, land management, local government area or forest management boundary, then those arcs were copied from those layers. Dataset Originality: Primary & Derived
