Vicmap is Victoria’s Spatial Framework Information – Single authoritative source – Whole-of-State coverage – Established quality levels –(completeness, reliability, currency, spatial and attribute accuracy) – Accessible and available – Fit for purpose

Vicmap Features - Elements Building Points Areas Built Up Area (BUA) Geographic Name Register Points Geographic Labels - Hydro & Relief Locality Point Labels LandmarkPoints Polygons Utility Points Lines Polygons Vicmap Annual Maintenance: 70,000 new properties every year 70,000 new addresses every year 5,000 new roads every year DEM creation resulted in an upgrade of Elevation Hydro – Vicmap Water consultancy and Federal developments Vicmap Features?

History Created from cultural data captured during production of the 1: Accelerated Topographic Mapping Program Data was migrated into a GIS environment Subsequent data improvement programs were ad hoc and opportunistic. Similar and duplicate datasets exist for the same purpose eg. 000 CPN and ES Points (Single User Requirement) 2007 Features of Interest consultancy recommended: Improve / upgrade data quality and supply Modify / upgrade the data model to adopt a “services” structure Appoint a Vicmap Features custodial officer with sole responsibility for the product. 1.5 Vicmap Features Background

Main Uses and Products 3. Vicmap Features Uses – Where is it? What is it?

Vicmap Features – Interim Data Model Addition of Feature Sub Types Based heavily on the current ICSM and PSMA data models. No “off the shelf” data model exists The data model structure reflects fit for purpose requirements It removes the reliance on variable attribute fields and reference tables Ensures effective and efficient search and management functionality

VMFoINT has moved from a map layer to a full GIS model useable, maintainable, sustainable VMFoINT is authorative VMFoINT is NOT a wiki VMFoINT has created a structured and expandable feature code library Standards, QA processes, Search and management capabilities VMFoINT is maintained and maintainable long term Eg. NES, VSC Custodianship Program, PIP, GNR, CIP Vicmap Features of Interest (VMFoINT) Conclusion
