This dataset consists of areas of land provided with written agreement to rely on the conservation work exemption.

Permanent Growth Plots 500m Buffer

Location of Seed Traps. These locations are provided to VicForests via a contractor - Owen Bassett from Forest Solutions

Regen survey polygon information from the field specifically for Regen surveys

Hazards layer identifying locations of features such as hazardous trees, mine shafts, holes, cables, etc. These were identified and recorded by VicForests field staff.

Forest Areas which were within VicForests (VF) Allocated Resource that VF intended to conserve and protect from harvesting for one rotation or until such time it was assessed that the value no longer existed. This supplements the Forest Management Zone (FMZ) layer from Department of Environment Land Water and Planning (DELWP). The Reserve layer includes Modelled Old Growth in Parks to support reporting requirements.

This layer is part of Vicmap Lite and contains point features delineating geographic features from which key geographic landmarks can be labelled. Vicmap Lite datasets are suited for use between scales of 1: 250,000 and 1 : 5 million. The point features were sourced from GEO_POINT_LABEL. The level of attribute information and the number of features 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 AUGUST 2008

Point layer for VF soil sample data collected by foresters in the field

The Port Phillip Bay Coastal Hazard Assessment (the product) is a digital dataset consisting of multiple spatial layer outputs from modelled erosion, inundation and groundwater hazard scenarios. The product is recommended for use at the regional scale around Port Phillip Bay. Application of the data should be guided by the accompanying Port Phillip Bay hazard assessment technical reports (CSIRO 2022, Water Technology 2023, Kennedy 2022) and expert advice. The product is not suitable for individual property scale assessments. The datasets available are as follows. Further detail on technical assumptions for these scenarios are provided in the accompanying technical reports. Additional data sets referenced in the reports are also available on request. Storm tide inundation Storm tide inundation extents for the 1% Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP) for a range of Sea Level Rise (SLR) scenarios (0m, 0.5m, 0.8m, 1.1m): - PPBCHA_INUNDATION_EXTENT_1AEP_00SLR - PPBCHA_INUNDATION_EXTENT_1AEP_05SLR - PPBCHA_INUNDATION_EXTENT_1AEP_08SLR - PPBCHA_INUNDATION_EXTENT_1AEP_11SLR - PPBCHA_INUNDATION_EXTENT_1AEP_00SLR_WITHRAINFALL - PPBCHA_INUNDATION_EXTENT_1AEP_05SLR_WITHRAINFALL - PPBCHA_INUNDATION_EXTENT_1AEP_08SLR_WITHRAINFALL - PPBCHA_INUNDATION_EXTENT_1AEP_11SLR_WITHRAINFALL Storm tide inundation extents for each SLR scenario are presented as a combined vector layer that incorporates the modelled 95th, 50th, and 5th percentiles. Erosion Erosion extents for the 1%AEP for a range of Sea Level Rise (SLR) scenarios (0m, 0.2m, 0.5m, 0.8m, 1.1m). - PPBCHA_EROSION_EXTENT_1AEP_2010_00SLR - PPBCHA_EROSION_EXTENT_1AEP_2040_02SLR - PPBCHA_EROSION_EXTENT_1AEP_2070_05SLR - PPBCHA_EROSION_EXTENT_1AEP_2100_08SLR - PPBCHA_EROSION_EXTENT_1AEP_2100_11SLR Erosion hazard extents are the modelled 95th percentile. Sea level of 0m as of 2010. Groundwater Groundwater extents indicating where the hazard is shallow (within 0 to 2m below land surface) for a range of Sea Level Rise (SLR) scenarios (0m, 0.2m, 0.5m, 0.8m): - PPBCHA_GROUNDWATER_EXTENT_SHALLOW_00SLR - PPBCHA_GROUNDWATER_EXTENT_SHALLOW_02SLR - PPBCHA_GROUNDWATER_EXTENT_SHALLOW_05SLR - PPBCHA_GROUNDWATER_EXTENT_SHALLOW_08SLR Shallow groundwater extent layer is derived from the groundwater depth raster.
