Description

DescriptionThis layer is a general valuation-based land use dataset based on the valuation information and the valuation cadastre boundaries. The land use code from the valuation has been categorised into seventeen broad classes.
UsageFor analysis and mapping. Can be used to get a general understanding of the land use of an area.

Data Quality

LineageThe generalised land use spatial layer is derived from joining the state wide property cadastre (applying the latest yearly snapshot) and the generalised land use description lookup table. From the 2017 processing enhancements for community and strata plans and parcels containing residential land use and non-private residential land uses were made to improve the land use layer. From 2018 processing enhancements for community and strata plans and parcels were expanded for all land uses. Consideration has also been given to DCDB parcels dedicated to conservation identified in the layer Protected Areas - NPWS and Conservation Reserve Properties (CONSERVATION.NpwsaProperties). These DCDB parcels dedicated to conservation have land use category as RESERVE. Land use is summarised in 17 land use categories being - AGRICULTURE - AgricultureSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; COMMERCIAL - CommercialSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; EDUCATION - EducationSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; FOOD_INDUSTRY - Food industrySELECT 1 FROM DUAL; FORESTRY - ForestrySELECT 1 FROM DUAL; HORTICULTURE - HorticultureSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; LIVESTOCK - LivestockSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; MINE_QUARRY - Mining / QuarryingSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; NONPRIVATE_RESID - Non private residentialSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; PUB_INSTITUTION - Public institutionSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; RECREATION, RESERVE, GOLF - Recreation / ReservesSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; RESIDENTIAL - ResidentialSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; RET_COMMERCIAL - Retail commercialSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; RURAL_RESID - Rural residentialSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; UTIL_INDUSTRY - Utilities / IndustrySELECT 1 FROM DUAL; VACANT - VacantSELECT 1 FROM DUAL; VACANT_RESID - Vacant urban land
CompletenessComplete for all of State
Positional AccuracyThis data set has been derived from the valuation cadastre boundaries reliant on accuracy of underlying DCDB (cadastre). The positional accuracy is variable.
