This layer presents the spatial extent, species distribution and density of seagrass/submerged aquatic vegetation at Gippsland Lakes mapped from 1997 aerial photography and field observations.

This layer identifies shorebird coastal roosting sites in the Victorian coastal region and was produced for the Victorian component of the Oil Spill Response Atlas. Sites were identified from a range of published and unpublished sources of information, and from personal communications made by experts in the field.

THIS DATASET HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN FROM OPEN DATA 17 FEBRUARY 2025. Strategic Cycling Corridors (SCC) are important transport routes for cycling and are a subset of the Principal Bicycle Network (PBN). The SCC network supports the needs of commuter trips (to work or education) and other important trips, such as to stations, shops or schools. The SCC network links up important destinations, including central Melbourne city, employment and activity centres, and other destinations of metropolitan and regional significance. SCCs can be on and off road, on municipal and state roads and are designed to provide a safe, lower-stress cycling for transport experience. The SCC network is classified as C1 or C2. C1 are "primary routes" which provide a core network of Strategic Cycling Corridors that connect places of state significance - the central city, Metropolitan Activity Centres (MACs) and National Employment and Innovation Centres (NEICs) within metropolitan Melbourne. In the future, this network may extend into regional cities. C2 are "main routes" - Strategic Cycling Corridors that provide additional connections to state significant destinations, as well as connections to Major Activity Centres and key railway stations within metropolitan Melbourne. In regional towns, main routes provide the SCC network that connects to destinations of regional importance including activity areas, school and railway stations. The SCC network was reviewed and updated in 2020, drawing on international best practice, while considering the local context and extensive stakeholder input.

This data was withdrawn from DataShare April 2025. This polyline dataset represents disused railway corridors which have been turned into "Rail Trails" in Victoria.

This point dataset represents the approximate centre of rail freight facilities in Victorian and southern NSW (connected the Victorian rail network). The freight facilities include sea ports, intermodal terminals, quarry terminals, timber terminals and agricultural terminals. Some of the freight facilities are located on privately owned rail spurs.

This layer contains polygons defining the spatial extent, species distribution and density of seagrass meadows within Tamboon Inlet mapped from 1999 aerial photography and ground-truthing.

This layer contains polygons defining the spatial extent, species distribution and density of seagrass meadows within Sydenham Inlet mapped from 1999 aerial photography and ground-truthing.

This data was withdrawn from DataShare April 2025. This polyline dataset represents the centreline of disused rail corridors in Victoria. This includes track sections which are given a status of either "Closed" or "Minimum Maintenance". Some of these corridors are within existing VicTrack reserves, however others have been disposed of or were private tracks which are now disused. Some of these corridors now serve as rail trails.

THIS DATASET HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN FROM OPEN DATA 25 MARCH 2025 The Principal Freight Network (PFN) is a strategic network of current and recognised future freight places and connecting movement corridors (road and rail) which are nationally, state and/or regionally significant. The PFN places and corridors are where freight of significant quantity, value or importance is generated, stored, distributed, handled or carried. This dataset depicts areas classified as "PFN Rail - area for potential PFN", which are approximate areas identified that will contain a future rail corridor that will form part of the PFN once funded. The PFN was reviewed and updated in 2021 through consultation with local government and industry, building on the previous PFN which was last updated in 2013.

This layer contains polygons defining the spatial extent, species distribution and density of seagrass meadows within Mallacoota Inlet mapped from 1999 aerial photography and ground-truthing.
