This dataset contains vegetation features represented by polygons as at 2014. Each polygon is based on ABS mesh blocks which have been subdivided by Vicmap property road casement polygons. It's part of a collection of data from Plan Melbourne Action 91 initiative also referred to as Cooling & Greening or Vegetation and Urban heat mapping https://mapshare.vic.gov.au/coolinggreening/

This dataset contains vegetation features represented by polygons as at 2018. Each polygon is based on ABS mesh blocks which have been subdivided by Vicmap property road casement polygons.

This dataset contains 2018 Urban Heat Island (UHI) and urban vegetation features represented by polygons. Each polygon is based on 2016 ABS Mesh Blocks. It's part of a collection of data from Plan Melbourne Action 91 initiative also referred to as Cooling & Greening or Vegetation and Urban heat mapping. https://mapshare.vic.gov.au/coolinggreening/

Polygons showing tree cover change as defined by woody vegetation greater than 2 metres in height and with a crown cover (foliar density) greater than 10%. Tree cover is mapped down to a minimum area of quater hectare for change period 1990-1995. Attributes outlining the causes of tree cover change are assigned for areas greater than 1 hectare. This layer was derived from LANDSAT TM digital data.

This dataset is a definitive view of native vegetation extent and condition across Melbourne’s VC68 urban growth areas and incomplete Precinct planning areas within the Melbourne Urban Growth Boundary, time-stamped as at 13 December 2012. The area covered by the timestamping dataset aligns with the extent of the Biodiversity Conservation Strategy (BCS) for Melbourne’s Growth Corridors (DSE 2012). This dataset wholly replaces the previously released NV2011_TS_GA and includes the following changes: -inclusion of Number of Large and Very Large Trees in Surveyed remnant Patches -Remnant Patches have new Unique IDs to remedy issues in previous dataset The dataset only provides a view of native vegetation within the extent outlined above. Where a parcel is partially within the extent, the view of native vegetation only applies to areas applicable within the BCS.

This dataset contains spatial polygons which represent tree canopy areas across the City of Melbourne. It can be easily mapped using the geometry column. Tree canopy polygons have been derived by ArborCarbon from high-resolution airborne multispectral imagery. ArborCarbon collected this imagery using the ArborCam, a unique 11-band airborne multispectral camera system optimized for the accurate detection of vegetation and subtle changes in vegetation condition. The high-resolution airborne imagery datasets were geometrically corrected and orthorectified using the City of Melbourne’s publicly available 2018 aerial imagery and a Digital Terrain Model supplied by the City. A Digital Surface Model was generated from the acquired imagery for the full extent of the City, enabling the stratification of vegetation into a range of height categories. All vegetation >3m above the ground was classified as canopy (excluding vegetation on building rooftops).

Tree canopy within City of Melbourne mapped using 2014 aerial photos and LiDAR. The canopy polygons represent actual tree canopy extents on both private and public property across the city.
