AndreaBozzo/ceres-open-data-index huggingface dataset:
Victorian Wetland Environments and Extent - up to 2013

## **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.



Polygons showing the extent and types of wetlands in Victoria. This layer is an update of the Wetland 1994 layer, it incorporates new regional mapping, some supplementary mapping and repositioning of planimetrically inaccurate wetlands. Supplementary mapping involved identifying and delineating wetlands which had not previously been mapped, but did not modify the extent of existing wetlands. It was undertaken primarily using aerial photograph interpretation (photos from 2007 to 2011) supplemented with existing geospatial datasets that provided context and informed the identification of wetland boundaries (e.g. vegetation mapping, topography). Wetlands were classified (according to the new classification framework) into primary categories based on wetland system type, salinity regime, water regime, water source, dominant vegetation and wetland origin.

## **Purpose** 

WETLAND_CURRENT is one of three layers designed to document changes over time in the nature and extent of wetland environments in Victoria. This layer is directly related to WETLAND_PRE_EUROPEAN and WETLAND_1994 via the use of a common wetland identification system.

## **Dataset History** 

Data Set Source:

New regional mapping undertaken since 1994 was validated and incorporated. Supplementary mapping was undertaken using aerial photo interpretation and used existing geospatial datasets to provide context and assist in the identification of boundaries. The process did not involve modifying the extent of exisitng wetlands (as delineated in the Wetland_1994 layer) but did reposition planimetrically inaccurate wetlands.

Collection Method:

Aerial photograhy interpretation.

Processing Steps:

Step 1: validate and synthesise the regional wetland inventory updates undertaken since 1994. 

Step 2: reposition planimetrically inaccurate wetlands

Step 3: supplementary mapping 



Positional Accuracy: Precision: boundary accuracy for new mapping and repositioning 25m or better 



Attribute Accuracy: The classification scheme is applied using many different sources of data. Wherever possible the confidence in classification is provided. 



Completeness: All wetlands with an area of 1 hectare or more should be present.

Qld 100K mapsheets - Ipswich

## **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. The polygons in this dataset are a digital representation of the distribution or extent of geological units within the area. Polygons have a range of attributes including unit name, age, lithological description and an abbreviated symbol for use in labelling the polygons. These have been extracted from the Rock Units Table held in the Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy Merlin Database.

## **Purpose** 

To display the geology polygons which define the extent of rock units.

## **Dataset History** 

Data captured at 1:25 000 scale. The data set is sourced from the Department's Geoscience and Resources Database (GRDB), a component of the Mineral and Energy Resources Location and Information Network (MERLIN) corporate database.(GRDB), a component of the Mineral and Energy Resources Location and Information Network (MERLIN) corporate database.



NOTE: GEOLDATA was in most cases compiled based on Datum AGD66. The map tile coverages so compiled have now been projected to geographics based on Datum GDA94. Consequently the boundaries for these map tiles will not conform to the Latitude and Longitude graticule based on Datum GDA94.

AHGFContractedCatchment - V2.1 - Bremer-Warrill

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from Geofabric data provided by the Bureau of Meteorology. The source datasets are 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 datasets contains AHGFContractedCatcments occuring within the Bremer-Warrill catchment that have been further aggregated to define major sub-catchments. AGHFContractedCatchments are based upon the fully disaggregated stream segment level catchments derived from GEODATA 9 second DEM foundation data. These data define a catchment for every stream segment in the Surface Network product. The AHGFContractedCatchments is the set of predefined aggregated catchments. This is the component of the product whose outflow node is a Contracted Node that is guaranteed to persist.

## **Purpose** 

To support the Geofabric and provide a topographic basis for classification and reporting of analyses of the subcatchments.

## **Dataset History** 

The AHGFContractedCatchments are aggregations of the GEODATA 9 second DEM catchments that participate in a relationship of common areal extent based upon the location of a Contracted Node from both the Geofabric Surface Cartography and Geofabric Surface Network products. Levels of Contracted Confidence is further described in the Geofabric User Guide.

The AHGF contracted stream segment level catchments were selected based on the major streams that occur within the Bremer-Warrill. These stream segment level catchments were then aggregated using ArcGIS to create AHGF sub-catchments for the Bremer-Warrill.

The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement. 



Stratigraphic well locations have been downloaded from the Qld IRTM system.

## **Dataset History** 

The shapefile is based on data from the Qld IRTM system and Wells and O'Brien (1994).



The locations of most stratigraphic wells were sourced from the Qld IRTM system. This source dataset included data from the entire state of Qld. The source dataset was then clipped in ArcGIS to the extent of the Clarence-Moreton bioregion. Additional wells which were not included in the Qld IRTM system were sourced from Wells and O'Brien (1994).

CLM - Surface water EC sites for New South Wales and Queensland

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are 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 compiles surface water electrical conductivity measurements from streams in the Qld and NSW part of the Clarence-Moreton bioregion. The shapefile contains both the maximum and minimum electrical conductivity observed at a site.

## **Dataset History** 

Surface water monitoring sites within the Clarence-Moreton bioregion were extracted from the Qld DNRM Surface Water database and NSW Surface Water Quality database using ArcGIS.



Only sites where multiple measurements (time series data) exist were considered. The aim of looking at maximum and minimum is to determine if there are any significant changes of electrical conductivity over time, attributed for example to a response to climatic variability or interaction with different geological units. 



It is acknowledged that the frequency of measurements at different sites can be very different; at some sites, the electrical conductivity has been measured many times, elsewhere only relatively few times. This may introduce a bias. However, in this study this dataset was only used as a first point of reference (or high level assessment) to understand groundwater-surface water interaction at the regional scale.
