Vicmap Topographic Mapping 1:100 000 is a digital state wide map mosaic comprising of 70 GeoTiffs Vicmap Topographic 1:100 000 is sourced from the following datasets: Vicmap Transport Vicmap Property Vicmap Features of Interest Vicmap Vegetation Vicmap Hydro Vicmap Elevation State Wide Contours Vicmap Admin Vicmap Property CSDL Treecover PLANT100

This layer provides an annual view of residential dwellings for Metropolitan Melbourne defined by the 31 local government areas. Dwelling information is assigned to polygons representing Victoria's land parcels for the particular year. Key fields include: Number of residential dwellings on a parcel; parcel size, whether a parcel is vacant, whether construction activity is present, and the street address. Polygon information is sourced from the Parcel View - Vicmap Property dataset (VMPROP_PARCEL_VIEW).

This layer is part of Vicmap Elevation 10-20 Contours & Relief, a subset of Vicmap Elevation. It contains point features delineating ground type points. Includes: Mountain, Rock Terrestial and Points.

Spatial dataset of Above Ground Biomass (AGB) in Victoria's public forest estate. In Victoria, forests are defined as land area greater than 0.5 ha, dominated by trees usually having a single stem and a mature or potentially mature stand height exceeding two metres and with existing or potential crown cover of overstory strata equal to or greater than 20 percent. This definition includes native forests, plantations and areas of trees sometimes described as woodlands.

This dataset is derived from the Melway directory and contains the map indices for the 1:5 000 city maps.

Hydrographs from over 2000 state observation bores were reviewed in order to group bores which have a similar water level trend and are screened in the same aquifer. The groupings of observation bores are referred to as 'suites' and are classified according to the Upper, Middle, Lower and Basement aquifers aligning with the Victorian Aquifer Framework. By applying a statistical technical, a normalised hydrograph was developed for each suite using the observed water levels from all bores within the suite. This hydrograph is representative of the groundwater trend within the suite. A spatial boundary has been created for each suite which encompasses all bores within the suite. The boundaries were manually constructed and cover the extent of the mapped aquifers.

This dataset shows the area covered by the Wotjobaulk Consultation agreement.

This data is now obsolete, current UDP data is available. Identifies undeveloped land for residential development generally on the fringe of the metropolitan area. Each record in the database details the anticipated development timing, the area of the site in hectares and the potential lot yield. Other details are also records against each site. This information maps land areas for both the supply and recent development categories they are; Supply area categoties >> 1-2years, 3-5years, 6-10years, 11+years, UGZ (PSP required) and Potential Residential (Geelong region only). Recently developed categories >> Developed land for years 2007, 2008 & land under construction. In addition to the development status categories, two other attributes describe whether the land is currently zoned residential and/or is low density.

Projection data is described in the gridcode column of the attribute table. This number is 1000 times the actual value (retained in this form to capture significant figures through map processing). For example, "Gridcode -23599" equates to -24% (rainfall) and "Gridcode 1986" equates to 2.0 degrees Celsius (temperature). The results are from 23 climate models that were available for the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (2007). It is assumed that that the model results give a representation of the real world response to a specific emissions scenario. The IPCC (2007) estimates of global warming are relative to the period 1980-1999. For convenience, the baseline is often called 1990. Projections are given for 2030 and 2070 but, of course, individual years can vary markedly within any climate period, so the values can be taken as representative of the decade around the single year stated, i.e. projections for 2030 are representative of 2026-2035. Natural variability (independent of greenhouse gas forcing) can cause decadal means to vary and estimates of this effect are included in the estimates of uncertainties. The projections comprise a central estimate and a range of uncertainty. The central estimate is the median – or 50th percentile - of the model results, while the uncertainty range is based on two extreme values – the 10th and 90th percentiles. 10% of values fall below the 10th percentile and 10% of values lie above the 90th percentile. Greater emphasis is given to projections from models that best simulate the present climate. The weightings are based on statistical measures of how well each model can simulate the 1975-2004 average patterns of rainfall, temperature, and sea level pressure over Australia. Subregions of Victoria are indicated. Victoria has an integrated catchment management system established under the Catchment and Land Protection Act 1994 (the CaLP Act). Under the CaLP Act, Victoria is divided into ten catchment regions, with a Catchment Management Authority (CMA) established for each region.
