PLM25: Public Land Management in Victoria at 1:25,000 Scale

Victoria, Australia's public land management data, derived from tabular and spatial sources including PORTAL, PRIMS, PARKRES, VEACRECS25, and CL_TENURE. The dataset describes primary management, land manager, and VEAC recommendations for state forests, parks, Crown land, and coastal areas to a 3 nautical mile limit. It is maintained by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action and was last updated on 2026-04 09.

Use Cases

• Map public land ownership and management boundaries based on the described spatial layers.
• Analyze land use recommendations and policy implementation based on VEAC recommendations data.
• Model coastal and marine resource management based on data extending to the 3 nautical mile limit.
• Compare historical and current land management using the dataset that replaced the old PLM100 series.

Strengths

• Spatial scale is explicitly defined as 1:25,000.
• Geographic coverage includes estuarine, coastal, and marine areas to a 3 nautical mile (5.5 km) limit.
• Data provenance is documented, listing specific base and source layers like VMPROP.PARCEL_CROWN_APPROVED.
• Provides a direct contact ([email protected]) for error reporting.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
