Victoria - 1 in 100 Year Flood Extent

## **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.

Gippsland regional model extent

## **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. 



This is a shape file representing the area in Gippsland, Victoria, where a groundwater model was constructed (Beverly etal, 2015).



The Gippsland groundwater model was developed for the whole Gippsland region (incorporating onshore and offshore areas) and was developed using:

\*	available geological and groundwater data (including the Victorian Aquifer Framework mapping) and 

\*	data obtained from universities, energy companies, water authorities and major licensed water users.



The calibrated groundwater model was designed to enable an assessment of the regional scale impacts on groundwater and surface water due to gas development.  It can also assess the impacts of key water uses such as coal mine developments and offshore oil and natural gas extraction, although variations in these uses were not investigated.  The modelling accounts for all existing groundwater usage (onshore and offshore) and integrated farming systems land use to best estimate the current water balance in the region.  Mine pumping uses existing pumping wells, and pumping is set to achieve target pressures. Offshore extraction is explicitly modelled, using equivalent pumping volumes at the relevant offshore platforms.



Hypothetical coal seam gas, and tight and shale gas development scenarios have been used to determine the assess the potential impact a gas extraction industry may have on water resources.  The model is intended to be used to compare different scenarios for changes to the water balance and water levels against a baseline condition.  Absolute changes in the water balance, while informative, are difficult at this regional scale.

## **Purpose** 

To define the area of the groundwater model for purposes of illustration and model boundary.

## **Dataset History** 

The Gippsland Groundwater Model was developed to help quantify the potential groundwater and surface water impacts of possible onshore gas developments in the Gippsland region. This polygon encompasses the area under study and was drawn to cover that extent.

Gippsland flood extent for significant event 201206

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from the Victorian Flood database. The parent dataset(s) is identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.



This dataset comprises a subset of the full Victorian Flood database separated on the specific year and month of the event in the Gippsland region. This package of data contains flood extent of the flood in June 2012 (201206). It may include both modelled and observed data.

## **Purpose** 

Victoria Flood Database is a collection of observed and modelled flood information. It is used for risk assessment, strategic planning and emergency response. The Extent_100y_ARI and Floodway layers are used to develop flood-specific zones and ovelays in the Municipal Planning Schemes. This collective data forms the basis for web-based interactive flood response mapping tool known as FLOODMAP.

## **Dataset History** 

Data has initially been drawn from authoritative sources through the digitisation project in 1998/1999 known as the Flood Data Transfer Project. Detail is primarily aligned to varying versions of Vicmap and other assorted data. Recent flood studies are largely based on high resolution DEMs, while some rural areas were mapped from oblique photography and 'best estimate' principles by floodplain managers. Positional accuracy of all content, although accepted as meeting a reasonable level of alignment, cannot therefore be accurately stated. An reliability and modified date attribute is given for every feature in the VFD. Users must therefore read the reliability attribute of any given feature in order to determine whether it is fit for purpose.

Victorian Water Supply Protection Areas

## **Abstract** 

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



Surface Water - This dataset displays Victoria's surface-water Water Supply Protection Areas (WSPAs), and has been prepared for the Groundwater and Licensing Branch and the River Health Branch DSE, by LICS (Land Information Cartographic Services) and Melbourne Water.

As part of the 2002 amendments to the Water Act 1989, surface-water was included to allow WSPAs to be declared for the protection of surface-water resources in a defined area. A legally enforceable Streamflow Management Plan is then developed. The aim of the plan is to manage the surface water resources of the WSPA equitably and to ensure the long-term sustainability of the resource. An extensive consultative process guarantees that surface water users have a major input into the development of the Streamflow Management Plan for their

area. A Ministerial appointed Consultative Committee which represents all relevant interests prepares the Plan. In an area where farming predominates, farmers who own or occupy farming land in the area must comprise at least half of the membership of the committee.

Groundwater - This dataset displays Victoria's groundwater Water Supply Protection Areas (WSPAs), and was originally prepared for Groundwater and Licensing Branch DSE, by LICS (Land Information Cartographic Services). Boundaries generaterd by LICS and Melbourne Water. Subsequent revisions have been undertaken by GLiB and the Rural Water Corporations. WSPAs are areas that have been (or are proposed to be) proclaimed under the Water Act 1989 for the purpose of establishing a management plan. The aim of the plan is to manage the groundwater resources of the WSPA equitably and to ensure the long-term sustainability of the resource. An extensive consultative process

This dataset is superseded by Salinity Bores V1

## **Purpose** 

Three rounds of groundwater sampling were conducted in the Gippsland region on a total of 30 bores. Groundwater salinity has been measured according to Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) concentration

## **Dataset History**
