Named Victorian Topographic Feature Polygons

Victoria, Australia contains polygon geometries for named topographic features like rivers, water bodies, and transport infrastructure. The dataset combines features based on name and type to create single geometries, representing detailed larger areas such as lakes, sports grounds, and shopping precincts. It is provided by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action and was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Perform spatial analysis on polygon features representing Victorian rivers and water bodies.
• Map and visualize the distribution of transport infrastructure polygons, excluding roads.
• Identify and categorize geographic features of interest, such as municipal reserves and botanic gardens, using combined geometry based on name and type.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from the authoritative Vicmap Framework Products.
• Features are combined into single geometries based on name and type, reducing redundancy.
• Covers multiple feature categories including inland waters, transport, and geographic features.

Limitations

• The specific number of features (rows) and attribute columns is unknown.
• Data is limited to the geographic scope of Victoria, Australia.
• Sample data is unavailable for previewing structure and content.
