Victoria Regional CMA - Water Asset Information Tool - WAIT databases

## **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. 



Under the BA program, spatial assets databases are developed for each defined bioregional assessment project. The spatial elements that underpin the identification of water dependent assets are identified in the first instance by regional NRM organisations (via the WAIT tool) and supplemented with additional elements from national and state/territory government datasets.



The Water Asset table describes the key attributes of the water dependent environmental assets (or elements) as provided by regional NRM organisations under the BA program. 



The main land use/s at the site of features are described. Values are based on Australian Land Use Management Classification (ALUM), as provided by bioregional stakeholders as part of the process for populating an initial assets database.



Key environmental values are described as detailed in the National Water Quality Management Strategy (NWQMS). The NWQMS process involves development and implementation of management plans for each catchment, aquifer, estuary, coastal water or other water body, by community and government. Local government, community organisations and other agencies carry out these plans using the NWQMS to protect agreed environmental values (or 'EVs').



A description of the WaterBody Type is provided, based on Australian National Guidelines for Ramsar Wetlands, but may include other values, particularly for those describing groundwater elements or assets. 



Key components of a vulnerability assessment of the elements or assets provided by regional partners are also provided.

## **Purpose** 

To provide regional asset information as an initial input into the assets and receptors compilation process.

## **Dataset History** 

Lineage and processing history of the data received from BA regional partners will vary. Detailed documentation is provided within this dataset.

Victorian Biodiversity Atlas flora - 1 minute grid summary

## **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 layer summarises VBA flora records against a standard grid of 1 degree longitude/latitude (GDA94). Any VBA taxa record with its centre in a cell is counted as a record for that cell. The number of times a taxon has been recorded in a cell is collated in the RECORDS column. The first date and last date that a taxon has been recorded in a cell are also summarised. VBA data summarised against 10 and 5 minute grids are also available in related datasets. VBA records with a spatial accuracy worse than +/- 1 km are excluded from this layer.

## **Purpose** 

This layer can be used to indicate general localities where wildlife have been recorded. It can also be used

as an index to assist in the analysis of the VBA_FLORA25 and VBA_FLORA100 layers. This layer

includes restricted records and can act as an alternative to VBA_FLORA_RESTRICTED.

## **Dataset History** 

Data Set Source:

The Victorian Biodiversity Atlas database



Completeness: Records are available from throughout Victoria, although some area have extremely good coverage, e.g. Central Highlands, East Gippsland.

Hunter bioregion boundary definition sources

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme. 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.



A line shapefile of the Hunter subregion boundary with line segments attributed with the biophysical feature/dataset that defines that section of the boundary. This dataset is derived from the Bioregional Assessment areas and links to the source datasets are in the lineage field of this metadata statement.

## **Purpose** 

To identify the underlying source used to define the boundary. Mostly the Bioregion boundary was used but some sections are defined by geology and CMA boundaries.For report map purposes.

## **Dataset History** 

A polygon shapefile of the Hunter subregion was converted to a line shapefile. The subregion boundary was then compared with the datasets that the subregion metadata listed as boundary sources (see lineage).



The subregion boundary line was split (ArcGIS Editor Split tool) into sections that coincided with the source boundary layers and attributed accordingly.

## **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.



Mapping for Matters of State Environmental Significance version 4.1 in Queensland under the new State Planning Policy.

## **Purpose** 

The mapping of Matters of State Environmental Significance version 4.1 (MSES) is a spatial representation of the definition of MSES under the new State Planning Policy in Queensland.

## **Dataset History** 

Matters of State Environmental Significance MSES was generated using -but not limited to- base data including regional ecosystems mapping, Queensland wetland mapping, protected areas, marine parks and fish habitat areas. Data included in MSES was incorporated into 5 major categories: CONSERVATION;WETLANDS;SPECIES;VEGETATION;OFFSETS. Components from the base data were derived to form a unionized MSES data set. key attributes were stored within the dataset to allow for easier access on MSES values. For the SPP purposes, information from the MSES data was queried to form different layers that aligned with the MSES definition. See the MSES methodology for more information.

## **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.



Location of all current Exploration Licences/Permits issued under the Petroleum Act, 2000, Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act, 1982, or Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act, 1967 for the regulated resource or commodity of petroleum. Exploration Licences/Permits provide exclusive tenure rights to explore for the regulated resource or commodity of petroleum for a minimum of 5 or 6 years. Comment is sought on applications for Exploration Licences/Permits from numerous sources before granting. Exploration programs are subject to strict environmental and heritage conditions. Exploitation of identified resources must be made under separate petroleum production leases.

## **Purpose** 

The dataset was developed to record information necessary for the administration of the Petroleum Act, 2000, Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act, 1982, and Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act, 1967.



Use: Used to supply government, industry and the general public with an up-to-date status and extent of petroleum exploration activities throughout the state.

## **Dataset History** 

Lineage:



Source Data History: Exploration Licences/Permits boundaries were sourced from the official Petroleum Register licence/permit documents. Licence/permit boundaries are legally defined to follow lines of latitude and longitude, based on potentially several geodetic datums.



Processing Steps: Coordinates entered by keyboard from licence/permit documents. Non GDA94 coordinates transformed into GDA94. Linework cleaned to remove duplicate arcs. Data adjusted for accurate state border and coastline. Where appropriate cadastral parcels removed from licence/permit polygons. Associated attribute data also captured from licence/permit documents.
