EPA Victoria - Environmental Audit Reports (epa_env_audit_points_view)

The EPA audit reports refer to a searchable list of properties under the audit categories 53X Statement and/or Certificate, 53V Audit recommendations/No audit recommendations and EPA Processing (under the Environmental Protection Act 1970) that is maintained by EPA Victoria. The addresses of the properties have been spatially located and appear on the VVG portal as a WMS layer. The query links the location on the map portal to the on-line databasemaintained by the EPA.\r\n\r\nEach site links to up to three reports - in Adobe portable document format (*.pdf) - The Audit report (part a) report is the audit report with the key figures, maps and tables and often includes a signed copy of the certificate or statement of environmental audit. The Report appendices (part b) report contains all of the technical information, including groundwater bores, soil bores or pits, monitoring data, remediation plans, etc., and are often quite large files. The Executive summary (part c) contains an executive summary along with the signed copy of the certificate or statement of environmental audit. These are stipilated in the reporting format guidelines.\r\n\r\nData access and currency\r\n\r\nThe data is accessed directly from the EPA Victoria Interaction Portal. The addresses have been matched using the Victorian Mapping and Address Service (VMAS) and checked for accuracy. Nine sites have not been matched due to ambiguous or incomplete addressing. The details of these can be downloaded here. The VVG team checks for new data and uploads it on a weekly basis. \r\n\r\nLayer last updated: 06 February 2018

FedUni Spatial Groundwater research bores (feduni_bores)

The FedUni Spatial/University of Ballarat (UB) bore database is maintained by Federation University Australia as a groundwater research and monitoring database.  The intital development of UB Spatial was funded by the Corangamite Catchment Management Authority and Federation University Australia and focused on the web-delivery of four environmental datasets - groundwater bores, salinity, erosion and landslides - for the Corangamite region.   The impetus for the project was to place the most relevant and current natural resource management (NRM) data into and environment when it can be shared by catchment managers, researchers, consultants, municipalities, government agencies and members of the general public.\r\n\r\nIn general, the university research bores in UB Spatial have a full compliment of data and are used to 'showcase' the potential for the VVG site.  The FedUni Spatial/University of Ballarat bore database has also been used to clean and enhance data, most of which is then revised in the GMS.
