This imagery was collected to coincide with the establishment of the Great Ocean Road Coast and Parks Authority (GORCAPA) and to support the various agencies involved in the management of road and public land assets along the Great Ocean Road. The aerial capture was designed to provide a high degree of image verticality so that as many ground and nearshore water features remained as visible as possible, supporting accurate feature identification, location and mapping. The imagery compliments the Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) data that was also collected to support the establishment of the GORPACA and associated land management and planning activities. The imagery consists of 5cm true colour and near infra-red bands and represents the most accurate and extensive imagery data set of the Great Ocean Road currently held by the State.

This LiDAR survey was undertaken as part of a larger DTV LiDAR capture project in operation between 2022 and 2024. The DTV LiDAR Project comprises of almost 60 separate LiDAR survey blocks totaling over 60,000 square kilometres within Victoria. The project was managed by the Coordinated Imagery Program on behalf of the Digital Twin Victoria (DTV) program, a four-year $37.4 million State Government investment designed to fast track the adoption of new geospatial data and emerging technologies. When completed, the LiDAR capture project will have achieved coverage of over 99 percent of the population and 95 per cent of the buildings in the Victoria. The primary use of the data is the creation of a ‘bare earth’ digital elevation model (DEM) that will underpin the DTV geospatial data platform. Numerous other important secondary uses will also benefit from the data collected such as river health monitoring, vegetation analysis and heritage cultural mapping.

The photography was captured to be used in councils corporate GIS and to distribute to council contractors for in-house projects. These datasets will be used for Site Assessments, Planning, Building, Asset Recording, hardcopy map printing. The orthorectified imagery includes 3 visible bands (RGB). The imagery is tiled into 1km tiles and available in both TIFF and ECW compressed formats.
