Victoria Land Parcel Centroids for Cadastral Mapping

2026-updated centroid point layer for Victoria's land parcels and properties, part of the Vicmap Property cadastral system. It integrates with polygon views, identifiers, and legal descriptors like Crown and Freehold land differentiation. The dataset is provided in multiple spatial formats including SHP, DXF, and GDB.

Use Cases

• Link centroid points to PARCEL_VIEW and PROPERTY_VIEW polygon layers for spatial analysis of parcel attributes.
• Analyze Crown and Freehold land differentiation across Victoria using parcel centroids as reference points.
• Integrate centroid data with Easement Line (EASEMENT) and Cadastral Area Boundary (CAD_AREA_BDY) layers for cadastral network studies.
• Use centroids with Standard Parcel Identifiers (SPI) and Council reference numbers for administrative record linking.

Strengths

• Updated in March 2026, indicating recent maintenance.
• Part of a multi-layer cadastral system including polygon views, boundaries, and legal descriptors.
• Available in 7 spatial formats (SHP, DXF, TAB, DWG, EXTENDED TAB, MIF, GDB) for tool interoperability.

Limitations

• Sample data and row/column counts are unavailable, preventing assessment of scale and structure.
• Easement data is incomplete, with historical gaps outside metropolitan areas and no current review program.
• Must be used in conjunction with other Vicmap Property layers, requiring access to multiple datasets.
