This layer is part of Vicmap Lite and contains polygon features delineating forested areas. The polygons were sourced from TREE100.

This version of the vmlite_forest dataset was created by merging the previous layers vmlite_forest_su2, vmlite_forest_su3 and vmlite_forest_su5.

The concept of a Scale Use Code has been introduced to help control the level of detail displayed. Attribute scale_use_code values of 1 are suitable for display 1:1 million - 1 : 5 million scale range. Attribute scale_use_code values of 3&4 are suitable for display 1: 250,000 - 1 : 2 million scale range.

The level of attribute information, the number of features and the number of vertices has been simplified to suit the 1: 250,000 - 1 : 2 million scale range.
