Vicmap Lite - Water Polygon - 1:250,000 to 1:5,000,000
dataset:
VMLITE_HY_WATER_AREA
This layer is part of Vicmap Lite and contains polygon features delineating hydrological features. Vicmap Lite datasets are suited for use between scales of 1: 250,000 and 1 : 5 million. The polygons were sourced from Vicmap Hydro. The level of attribute information, the number of features 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.
THIS DATASET WAS LAST UPDATED IN NOVEMBER 2015

- 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 40m tolerance was used on this dataset
Lineage
- Description
- Level of detail reduced to suit 1:250,000 - 1:5 million scale range. Redundant attributes removed, Scale Use Code attribute added and populated. Number of verticies reduced using an enhanced Douglas and Peucker simplification algorithm.
