Environment
Dataset
In 2012, Council and ARUP partnered with the University of Melbourne on a three year Australian Research Council Linkage Grant for Creating a Smart City through Internet of Things." The aim of the research was to develop new systems and algorithms that can help City administrators remotely monitor, understand and interpret real time information on urban environments" The researchers are now applying the research in the City by deploying a three month 'real-world' data collection and testing trial. The environmental sensors, measuring light levels, humidity and temperature, have been deployed at Fitzroy Gardens and Library at the Dock. The data collected will assist the Urban Landscapes branch to better understand and communicate the impact of canopy cover for urban cooling.

Environment
Map
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.

Map
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.

Map
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

Map
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

Environment
Map
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.
