This layer is part of a set that defines the beneficial use of Victoria's groundwater resources. According to the Victorian Environmental Protection Authority (EPA), a beneficial use is a use to the environment, or a segment of the environment which is conductive to public benefit, welfare, safety, health or aesthetic enjoyment and which requires protection from the effects of waste discharges, emissions or deposits. A beneficial use may be an existing or potential use. A resource may have more than one beneficial use. The State's groundwater resources have a number of beneficial uses. These uses primarily depend on groundwater quality and aquifer yield and can be assigned to broad water quality classes.

This layer contains the yearly standard outputs reported to DELWP by CMAs. The raw submissions have gone through a statewide consolidation process which QAs selected common attributes.

Areas of catchments that drain to points on main tributaries immediately upstream of Victorian estuaries. The layer was derived by Deakin University as part of the project: "Linking catchments to the sea: Understanding how human activities impact on Victorian estuaries" funded by the National Heritage Trust and the Department of Sustainability and Environment.

The Groundwater Reporting Tool is a web map application on DELWPs website. The tool creates a pdf report of groundwater resources and management units at a user specified location. This dataset contains 100 m grid cells across the entire state (i.e. fish net) with each cell containing the required data for the report to be generated. The attribute table contains data relating to depth and salinity of the watertable as well as all intersected aquifers at the cell location. When new data is available (i.e. new salinity layers) a processing code is maintained by the Groundwater Assessment and Modelling team which can be run to update the table of this dataset.

Boundaries defining the approximate jurisdiction of the Melbourne Water Retailers. On 1 July 2021, Greater Western Water was formed by merging Western Water and City West Water.

TESTING. Based on PWSC100 Layer from 1 JAN 1992. Edited NOV 2021 to include updated declaration boundaries. Name Changed to SWSCA100 to reflect Legislation terminology and updates. Restricted release 1 JAN 2022. Full release 02DEC2022 - with edits to update Water corporation names and CMA names. Sliver polygons removed where impacting on naming.

Modelled likelihood of occurrence of seasonal herbaceous wetlands in south-east Australia using field observations and a suite of temporally informed statistics for indices derived from the Landsat and ALOS satellite platforms. Model outputs include both likelihood and uncertainty surfaces. The likelihood surface depicts the mean likelihood (of 30 independent models) of seasonal herbaceous wetland occurrence at each 25 x 25 m pixel and the uncertainty surface is the standard deviation derived from the set of 30 likelihood of occurrence predictions at each pixel.

This table is used by the Groundwater Resource Reporting Tool. It includes GMAs and WSPAs.
