The NISB Habitat Map was created by the University of Tasmania for a partnership between the Department of Climate Change and the National Land and Water Resources Audit. It supports the DCC/Audit partnership by providing a nationally consistent set of the available mapping data for those habitats that occur between the approximate position of the highest astronomical tide mark (HAT) and the location of the outer limit of the photic benthic zone (approximately at the 50-70 m depth contour). This area is broadly equivalent to the 'inner' and 'mid-shelf' regions identified by Geoscience Australia. The resulting map data set forms a core component of the ECM National Habitat Map Series. The habitat classes include: coral reef, rock dominated habitat, sediment dominated habitat, mangroves, saltmarsh, seagrass, macroalgae and filter feeders (e.g. sponges), as defined in the NISB Habitat Classification Scheme. The scheme is designed to support the development of marine 'ecoregions' or bioregional subregions. Details of the scheme and the process of its development are available in National Intertidal/Subtidal Benthic (NISB) Habitat Classification Scheme Version 1 (Mount, Bricher and Newton, 2007). The NISB Habitat Map consists of two layers for each state. _NISB.shp consists of the entire available habitat mapping at a resolution finer than 1:50 000 (with a few exceptions, outlined in the data quality section below). _NISB_PLUS.shp consists of all the data in _NISB.shp along with coarser resolution data, including NVIS and OzEstuaries data. These layers were used to produce the National ECM Key Habitat Distribution Map Series 10 km and 50 km tile maps.

Note: This data is labelled as “NISB_plus”, indicating that it is the NISB Habitat layer plus other lower quality layers.

Vicmap Planning is the map data representing the land use zone and overlay controls for all Victorian planning schemes. Planning schemes cover the 79 local government areas and three other areas in Victoria. Planning schemes are regularly amended, and Vicmap Planning is continually updated to reflect the official planning scheme at any time.

Datasets in the series are listed below. See them for more detailed metadata. - Planning scheme zones - Vicmap Planning (VMPLAN_PLAN_ZONE); - Planning scheme overlay - Vicmap Planning (VMPLAN_PLAN_OVERLAY); - Planning scheme Urban Growth Boundary - Vicmap Planning (VMPLAN_PLAN_UGB); - Planning scheme Urban Growth Area - Vicmap Planning (VMPLAN_PLAN_UGA); - Planning scheme codelist - Vicmap Planning (VMPLAN_PLAN_CODELIST) Current data model is Version 3.0.1

This is a georeferenced map of The Victoria District on Vancouver Island bordered by the Esquimalt and Lake Districts. Has sketches and relief shading to show land cover and land forms. There are numbered plots of land that correspond to tables with more information about them on the sides of the map. Named places and features include Knocken Hill, Portage Inlet, the Gorge, Rock Bay, Victoria Harbour, James Bay, Shoal Point, Ogden Point, Holland Point, Beacon Hill, Finlayson Point, Clover Point, Foul Bay, Gonzales Hill, Shoal Bay, Oak Bay, Cadborough Bay [Cadboro Bay], Gordon Head, Mount Douglas, Mount Tolmie, Works Rocks, the Colquitz River, and Swan Lake. Includes a small inset map of Discovery Island.

This land resource polygon dataset was mapped at a survey scale of 1:100 000 and includes a description of the landforms, soils and vegetation for 237 land units. The surveyed area of 74 502km2 is located 700km south west of Darwin and covers 23 major land holdings in the Victoria River District, (VRD) Northern Territory. The objectives of the project were to map, describe and evaluate the pastoral lands of the VRD and provide this information to land managers, industry, government and other relevant stakeholders.

Zoning data are updated by the Planning department as needed, and copied to the Open Data Portal daily. Zoning data are maintained in AutoCAD and then transferred to GIS for VicMap and the Open Data Portal. The labels for the zoning data are placed specifically in AutoCAD, so we export them as a separate layer in order to keep that fine placement. The Zoning Boundary data includes these labels as attributes as well, they just won't be quite as well-aligned as these. For Zoning Boundary (polygon) data, see also: Zoning Boundary data.The "Last Updated" date shown on our Open Data Portal refers to the last time the data schema was modified in the portal, or any changes were made to this description. We update our data through automated scripts which does not trigger the "last updated" date to change.Note: Attributes represent each field in a dataset, and some fields will contain information such as ID numbers. As a result some visualizations on the tabs on our Open Data page will not be relevant.

Shows the southern tip of Vancouver Island including the Otter, Sooke, Goldstream, Metchosin, Highland, Esquimalt, Lake, Victoria, South Saanich, and North Saanich Districts. Has numbered plots of land covering the districts and the roads and rail tracks throughout them. Manuscript notes on some of the plots of land indicate original owners. Includes relief marks showing the mountains and hills and red circles show the locations of hotels. Also includes a table of distances by road between particular points of interest. Places and features named include Sooke Harbour, Mount Harbour, Beecher Bay, Parry Bay, Mount Metchosin, Royal Bay, Esquimalt Harbour, Langford Lake, Saanich Inlet, Cordova Bay, Elk Lake, and Mount Douglas among many others.

Speed Signs is a spatial dataset (point) that shows the location of every Speed Limit sign across Victoria including advisory 'Speed Limit Ahead' signs. The data includes attributes such as Road Name, Sign Size, Type, Speed Value, Bearing and Direction. Variable speed signs display the alternative speed limit during the times that limit is active. This is captured in the variable time and day fields in the dataset. A standard ('static') speed sign with the prevailing speed limit is provided at the end of the zone which serves to end the variable zone, or act as a reminder sign for times when the variable speed limit isn't active. Data Quality Whilst every effort has been made to ensure this information is up-to-date, there may be instances where signs are not yet recorded in this system.

Significant changes to the structure of Statutory Planning in Victoria were implemented with the approval of the Planning & Environment Act 1987 (Government Gazette, 16 February 1988).

Following proclamation of the Act all planning controls (Planning Schemes/Interim Development Orders) made under the provisions of the Town and Country Planning Act were revoked and replaced by municipality-based planning schemes, planning schemes applying to the whole of a municipality and part of Port Phillip Bay and regional planning schemes.

Country Victoria:
Planning Schemes and Interim Development Orders in operation within a municipality were consolidated into a single planning scheme under the title of the particular local government area.

Metropolitan Region:
The Melbourne Metropolitan Planning Scheme (Refer to Melbourne Metropolitan Board of Works, VA 1007) was replaced by individual municipality-based planning schemes.

The term "Day One" summarizes the structural changes introduced by the Planning and Environment Act 1987 on 16 February 1988. For a detailed summary of the functions undertaken by the Act refer to the administrative history of the Department of Planning (VA 599).

The term "Day Two" summarizes the structural and content changes to all Victorian planning schemes at the gazettal of amendments on the 30 October 1989. The amendments introduced subdivision provisions in the State, Regional and Local Sections of all planning schemes and restructured and re-wrote planning schemes in the Metropolitan Region in accordance with plain English principles.

Relevant Country Victoria and Metropolitan Region Planning Scheme maps are located in VPRS 16155.

Amalgamation Amendments:
Following the review and restructure of local government in Victoria and the subsequent reduction in the number of local government areas (1994-1995), some newly created councils prepared Amalgamation Amendments in order to consolidate all planning schemes within their restructured municipal boundaries. Former planning schemes were re-titled as chapters of an amalgamated planning scheme. Alternatively, councils became the responsible authority for the operation of existing planning schemes within a restructured local government area.

Reference may be made to "New Patterns in Local Government. A guide to Victoria's new councils" published by the Office of Local Government, September 1995. (Available at PROV's Reading Room at North Melbourne).

Refer to VPRS 16155 Amalgamation Amendments/Maps.
Refer to VPRS 16204 (this series) Amalgamation Amendments/Ordinances.
Refer to VPRS 16223 New Format Planning Scheme Ordinances based on the Victoria Planning Provisions and VPRS 16203 New Format Planning Scheme Maps based on the Victoria Planning Provisions.

For planning controls in operation prior to 16 February 1988 (Day One) refer to the following series:
-VPRS 16121 Planning Scheme Record Cards
-VPRS 16131 Country Victoria Planning Scheme Maps, I.D.O's and Amendments (1946 - 1988)
-VPRS 16156 Country Victoria and Metropolitan Region Planning Scheme Ordinances, I.D.O's and Amendments (1946 - 1988)
-VPRS 16158 Melbourne Metropolitan Planning Scheme Ordinance, Consolidated Reprints, Amendments, Interim Development Orders (1954 - 1988)
-VPRS 16157 Melbourne Metropolitan Planning Scheme Maps, Interim Development Orders, Modifications and Amendments (1954 - 1988).

Planning Schemes consist of both maps and ordinance. Planning Scheme maps show the zones and overlays that apply to land covered by the scheme, and the written information or ordinance sets out the statutory planning requirements of the policies, zones and overlays described on a Planning Scheme Map.

VicPlan allows you to find a property or parcel, generate a planning property report, and view zones and overlays anywhere in Victoria.\r \r VicPlan is a state wide map viewer for location based planning scheme information. You can use it to locate any property or parcel in Victoria using the address/parcel search, or by browsing on the map. You can also access direct links to the planning rules for a site in the planning scheme.\r \r From VicPlan you can create a Planning property or parcel report with localised maps showing the zone and overlays. You can also access VicPlan via the maps in planning schemes.\r \r Zone and overlay spatial data is updated weekly.\r

Zoning data are updated by our Planning department as needed, and copied to the Open Data Portal daily.For finer label placement, see also: Zoning Map Labels data.More information on Zoning is available on our website: Zoning | City of VictoriaThe "Last Updated" date shown on our Open Data Portal refers to the last time the data schema was modified in the portal, or any changes were made to this description.

This dataset contains polygon features representing land use zones (such as residential, industrial or rural) for all Victorian planning schemes. This layer is attributed with: scheme code, zone number, zone status, zone code, LGA name, LGA code.

THIS IS A GEOREFERENCED FILE. A detailed map of the city of Victoria and the District of Esquimalt drawn and compiled from surveys. The land has been divided into many numbered blocks of numbered plots of land with the names of the intersecting streets labeled. There is a red line drawn down some of the streets with a note saying that "The red lines designate the 20,000 feet of pipes to be laid down within a year from the passing of the Act...". Many features and places have been named including a brewery, school reserve, residence of Gov. Douglas, government buildings, a public park with a race course encircling Beacon Hill, "Indian" village, gas works, churches, bridges, the railway, properties belonging to specific people, and ship yards. The surrounding bodies of water, the points along them, and the islands within them are all named including Rock Bay, Victoria Harbour, James Bay, the Straits of Fuca, Holland Point, Ogden Point, Shoal Point, Pelly Island, Coffin Island, Beaver Rock, and Laurel Point.

Download a map document showing Pacific sand lance and Surf smelt spawning habitat in the Capital Regional District, British Columbia. To do this the map utilizes two datasets: The Predicted Suitable Forage Fish Habitat data which was calculated using the ShoreZone database. Additional information about this dataset be found here. A Forage Fish Spawning Beach Monitoring dataset that contains data from beach sampling of Pacific sand lance and Surf smelt spawn events. This dataset is assembled by Strait of Georgia Data Centre staff using data submissions from a network of organizations (e.g. Sea Watch, MABBRI, Peninsula Streams Society) that often employ the help of citizen scientists to conduct their efforts. There is a parent metadata record for this dataset here, from which you can access child record about some of the individual survey efforts (e.g. child record titled 'Forage fish habitat monitoring data in the Capital Regional District, 2018+).

Abstract

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.

Polygon data delineating modelled statistical flood extent with an Average Recurrence Interval (ARI) of 100 years. For historical/actual flood extents, refer to 'Historic_extent' layer. Also known as the 1 in 100 year flood layer, it is used, among other things, in the creation of 'Land Subject to Inundation' areas as used in Planning Scheme Zones. The 1 in 100 year data is not restricted. This data is part of a group of layers depicting a range of statistical ARI extents. Current layers include 5, 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000 year intervals, each in a separate dataset. The layer called EXTENT_PMF represents areas of 'probable maximum flood' and is also part of this group. The data is statistically derived using hydrological models, historic flood extents and heights.

Purpose

Mainly used for municipal planning and risk assessment. The EXTENT_100Y_ARI layer is deemed the most appropriate to use for determining areas at risk of flooding. This layer directly inputs into the Land Subject to Inundation overlay. (LSIO)

Dataset History

Lineage: Primary

Positional Accuracy: Precision: 5m to 100m Initial data, flagged as 'modified = 20000101' varies in accuracy, and should be treated with caution, particularly at scales less than 1:25,000. Data with 'modified' values later than 20000101 are quite accurate and mostly sourced from flood studies. This data is suitable to use at township and parcel level. Reliability field provides clues to the accuracy, where a value of 1 is best and 3 is worst.

Attribute Accuracy: Attributes are verified and should be accurate. Overall reliability of the source material is indicated in RELIABILITY field, where 'HIGH' is good and 'LOW' is poor quality source information.

Logical Consistency: Attributes are consistent with other related layers e.g. flood height contours

Data Source: Flood data dates back to mid 1800s and historically has been predominantly located in DNRE Floodplain Management. Some data is located in Water Authorities.

Completeness: Floodplain Management Unit mapping conventions on definitions of flood mapping height data will be followed.

Additional Metadata: Recommend liaison with Floodplain Management Unit to clarify use of this layer

Refer to mapping reports for each major data capture effort to be kept at DNRE Floodplain Management Unit.

This dataset presents the school zones for Secondary schools in Victoria with the Year 10 curriculum for the year of 2020. All public primary and secondary schools, including Prep/Foundation to Year 9 and multi-campus schools have enrolment zones. This does not include schools with specific enrolment criteria including English Language Schools and Select Entry Schools. Specialist schools also do not have zones and have special enrolment criteria. Designated neighbourhood schools are generally the public school within closest proximity to the student’s permanent residential address, unless the Minister for Education or Regional Director has restricted the zone of the school. Closest proximity is calculated as the nearest school by straight line distance in metropolitan areas (including Geelong, Ballarat and Bendigo), or the nearest school by shortest practical route (in regional areas). Zones were produces in Datum 1994 VicGrid projection (EPSG: 3111) using locations that represent the front of the school or driveway access. Voronoi polygons define the measure of straight line distance and calculations using road classes 0 to 7 in the VicMap road network layer were used to define the measure of shortest practical route. The zones of schools defined as metropolitan have taken preference over the zones of regional schools where they interface. A small number of zones have been restricted by the Minister for Education to support schools in managing their enrolments. Some schools zones have been aligned with structural and geographic barriers recognising the significant accessibility issues they impose. School enrolment zones are reviewed annually and updated as government school provision changes. The school zone dataset is comprised of distinct map layers for primary schools and for each year of secondary school, acknowledging the different year levels offered by schools. For more information please visit the Victorian Government Data Portal or the Find My School website. Please note: The Victorian school zone layers can be used in conjunction with the Victorian school location layers.
