This survey was conducted for 1/3 of the CBD with as a proof of concept. This survey shows the parking restrictions that apply along lengths of CBD roads.

This dataset shows all of the streets and laneways within the City of Melbourne. This dataset is used in order for people to create their own map of the city and can be used to label the streets with their names down the centre of the road as is the standard for labelling streets on maps.

Tree canopy within City of Melbourne mapped using 2008 aerial photos and LiDAR. The canopy polygons represent actual tree canopy extents on both private and public property across the city. The data is considered accurate for 2011. Changes in tree canopy are expected to have occurred since that time.

Tree canopy within City of Melbourne mapped using 2008 aerial photos and LiDAR. The canopy polygons represent actual tree canopy extents on both private and public property across the city. The data is considered accurate for 2008. Changes in tree canopy are expected to have occurred since that time.

These polygons represent approximate native soil sub-bases and derived textures based on digitized maps from the Geological Survey of Victoria (c. 1956). Soils are expected to be extensively modified from these types throughout Melbourne due to extensive disturbance, and cut and fill associated with the city's development.

These are points in the city where soils have been sampled at different depths and a soil texture has been assigned. Location represents the park and sample number. 0_400 refers to the depth from surface (0) to 400 mm. 400_700 refers to depth from 400 mm to 700 mm. 700_1000 refers to depth from 700 mm to 1000 mm

This shapefile delineates historic water bodies including wetlands, the old Yarra River and Moonee Ponds Creek alignments and lakes (presumably seasonal and generally estuarine). The polygons are digitised from the 1855 map "Melbourne and its Suburbs" compiled by James Kearney, draughtsman ; engraved by David Tulloch and James D. Brown. http://handle.slv.vic.gov.au/10381/89107

This shapefile delineates historic creek lines digitised from the 1855 map Melbourne and its Suburbs" compiled by James Kearney, draughtsman ; engraved by David Tulloch and James D. Brown. http://handle.slv.vic.gov.au/10381/89107. The Elizabeth Street, Swanston Street and Fitzroy Garden creek alignments are included based on descriptions in:

1. Presland, Gary. 2009. Place for Village.

2. Burchett, Winston. 1978. East Melbourne, 1837-1977.

These flow routes are derived from the 2008 DEM surface using ESRI Spatial Analyst stream order tool with STRAHLER ordering. The GRID_CODE field represents stream order. Lines with no tributaries are assigned an order of one and are referred to as first order. When two first-order links intersect, the downslope link is assigned an order of two. When two second-order links intersect, the downslope link is assigned an order of three and so on. This was undertaken as part of the urbanforest program, the shapefile excludes a portion of Kensington that became part of City of Melbourne after this data was processed.

This shapefile contains the gradients of all City of Melbourne public footpaths. includes streets, laneways and park walkways. The gradients are expressed ion the distance of the section and the percentage gradient
