The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme. This dataset was derived from multiple datasets. You can find a link to the parent datasets in the Lineage Field in this metadata statement. The History Field in this metadata statement describes how this dataset was derived.


This data represents surface water entitlements inlcuding volumes extracted in ML in the Gippsland PAE. The initial data provided for Surface Water entitlements in the Gippsland PAE was extremely coarse. Water sources from River Basins (in the absence of more spatially representative features such as licence locations) were used in order to assign data to a general location. 

At the Gippsland Asset workshop in December, 2014, better Surface Water Entitlement data was requested and Southern Rural Water provided this data by entitlement location on the 18/12/2014.

## **Purpose** 

This dataset is an intermediate dataset to be included into a revised version of the Gippsland Asset database by ERIN

## **Dataset History** 

As the new Entitlement data from Southern Rural Water did not contain volumes but rather individual locations for each entitlement, data was joined by licence number to an internal Bureau of Meteorology national dataset enabling ML per year per licence to be assigned to location. This was done using ArcGIS software.

Note  there17 features without matching licence with a volume.

All data classified as "Water Access Right" as not broken down into the following codes of use:

CODE     DEFINITION 

WSUP     Water supply 

IRAG     Water supply for irrigated agriculture 

STOK     Water supply for livestock 

DRNK     Potable water supply i.e. drinking water 

HUSE     Water supply for household needs e.g. washing, toilet 

MNAS     Water supply for mining activities 

INDS     Water supply for manufacturing and industry 

INST     Water supply for institution 

COMS     Water supply for commercial activities i.e. a service business that does not fabricate a product 

RECS     Water supply for recreation and cultural activities 

EXPR     Exploration or research 

MINE     Mining i.e. extraction of minerals or energy resources 

RECN     Recreational purposes 

MON     Monitoring of groundwater conditions 

DRNG     Drainage of groundwater principally to lower watertable or remove deleterious groundwater 

CULT     Feature of natural or cultural significance 

UNK     Unknown i.e. purpose of groundwater feature is unknown 


In order to ensure only volumes and locations that were inside the Gippsland PAE were counted the the GIS location layer was clipped to the Gippsland PAE.
