Vicmap Hydro

## **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 virtual dataset. It is too large to supply directly to this data register and is available via the Victorian government data repository - https://www.data.vic.gov.au/data/



This contains line features delineating hydrological features.

Includes; Watercourses (ie channels, rivers & streams) & Connectors.

Attributed for name. Arcs run downstream.

A brief description of this dataset is also contained within a readme.txt  within the dataset

## **Purpose** 

Vicmap Hydro provides an accurate representation of natural and man made Hydrographic features across Victoria, at a capture scale of 1:25,000. It is used in a variety of applications, particularly in emergency services, natural resource management, planning and development, and digital map publication.

## **Dataset History** 

Detail copied from the data.vic.gov.au Metadata record for Watercourse Network 1:25,000 - Vicmap Hydro (ANZVI0803002490).



The line work and points were generated from the Vicmap Digital Topographic (VDT) map base coordinated by LIG. VDT evolved from Victoria's printed 1:25,000 Topographic Map Series program together with the need to supply a control framework for the creation of the rural Digital Cadastral Mapbase. The capture scale is 1:25,000 Statewide and the coverage, except for minor border issues is also statewide.



The planimetric accuracy attainable will be the sum of errors from three sources:the positional accuracy of the source material, errors due to the conversion process, errors due to the manipulation process. For topographic base derived data this represents an error of 8.3m on the ground for 1:25,000 data. A conservative estimate of 10m for the standard deviation will be used in any data quality information. Alternate and equal ways of expressing this error are: not more than 10% of well-defined points will be in error by more than 16 m. The worst case error for the data is +/- 30 m. For vertical positional accuracy of points determined from contours there is an expectation that the elevation accuracy (standard deviation) will be half the value of the contour interval.

Mean residual water level error - Gippsland 1990

## **Abstract** 

This dataset was supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and is presented here as originally supplied. Metadata was not provided and has been compiled by the Bioregional Assessment Programme based on known details at the time of acquisition. 



The spatial distributions of residual water level errors are presented for 1980, 1990, 2000 and 2010.  The mean residual water level is defined such that negative numbers refer to points where predicted groundwater head values are higher than observed and positive values indicate that predicted groundwater head values are lower than observed.



The dataset was generated in the Gippsland Groundwater Model (Beverly et al 2015).  The 1990 residual error reflects the difference between the simulated and the measured water level surfaces at groundwater monitoring bores across all aquifers.

## **Purpose** 

The purpose of the residual error data layer is to provide an indication of the modelled groundwater level surfaces performance relative measured groundwater level data as of 1990.



"Results .. suggest that the model over predicts the heads in the outcropped regions and under predicts the heads in the lower parts of the landscape.  The greatest errors are shown to be in the outcropping regions ....suggesting that the model attribution associated with model layer 23 requires further analysis.  This is consistent with observations reported .....that considered the hydraulic conductivities attributed to zones 23-29 were on the lower bounds of previously reported values."

Gippsland flood extent for significant event 199004

## **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 April 1990 (199004). 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 overlays 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.

Gippsland average daily minimum temperature

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme  from the national SILO data sets of climate station records. 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.



Gippsland Product 2-1 Climate Data Geodatabase v01   

This geodatabase contains the climate data used in the Gippsland Basin bioregion.  The data was extracted from the national SILO data sets for 199 climate stations in the Gippsland region.  The geodatabase includes the following datasets (average daily values): climate zones, evaporation, radiation, rainfall, evapotranspiration, maximum temperature and minimum temperature.  The data was produced using ANUClim software (Hutchinson, 2001), using the interpolation methods discussed in Jeffery et al., 2001.

## **Purpose** 

To spatially represent interpolated average daily minimum temprature (&#xBA;C) for the period 1957-2012- in Gippsland

## **Dataset History** 

For a given climate station daily climate data is a combination of original measurements and rectified data to remove any gaps in the record using interpolation methods discussed in Jeffery et al. (2001). 

To account for sparsely located climate stations within Gippsland, average daily minimum temperature were scaled to each solution point within the study area according to an interpolated average daily minimum temperature spatial layer, created using the ANUClim software (Hutchinson 2001).
