SW Economic Elements Sydney Basin 20150730

## **Abstract** 

This dataset was derived from multiple datasets. You can find a link to the parent datasets in the Lineage Field in this metadata statement. The History Field in this metadata statement describes how this dataset was derived.



This dataset represents Surface Water Economic Assets in the Sydney PAE.

## **Purpose** 

Created to represent spatially Surface water economic assets in the Sydney PAE

## **Dataset History** 

This dataset was derived from multiple datasets. You can find a link to the parent datasets in the Lineage Field in this metadata statement. The History Field in this metadata statement describes how this dataset was derived.



The database comprises of 3 output spatial layers:

1)SW Entitlements point locations (SW_LicenceEntitlements_VolSydney)  Key field is "VolPerWorks" (Volume per works)

2) Surface Water Sharing Plan volumes by Water Management zone or Water Source classified as Water Access Rights based on use (SW_WSP_WMZ_WS_WaterAccessRight)

3) Surface Water Sharing Plan volumes by Water Management zone or Water Source classified as Basic Water Rights based on use  (SW_WSP_WMZ_WS_BasicWaterRight)



Steps to create SW Entitlements point locations (SW_LicenceEntitlements_VolSydney)

1) The ArcGIS Create XY event theme was used to spatially enable the NSW Office of Water Surface Water Offtakes excel spreadsheet

2) This was then clipped by the PAE in ArcGIS

3) An additional SW offtake pnt and licence was added from a query performed by NSW Office of water when it was discovered that the new PAEslightly extended the old PAE area.  (see dataset in lineage)



Steps to create Surface Water Sharing plan volumes by Water Management zone or Water Source

1) In ArcGIS and Intersect was performed on (NSW Office of Water combined geodatabase of regulated rivers and water sharing plan regions) and the Sydney PAE to select only the relevant polygons

2) The NSW Office of Water provided a spreadsheet with volumes for water sharing plans which could be grouped by Water Managment Zone or Water Source (If only one poly).

3) Volumes were joined by WMZ field or Water Source if they did not have a value in WMZ field



Key volume field for Water Access Right = Share_WAR

Key volume field for Basic Water Right = Share_BWR



4) A table has been included in the database to show the asset classification (SWCountPurposeClassVolume)
