Feature represented as a single object
- Measure description
-
Each locality must be represented as a single object. Where the locality is represetned by 2 or more parts, the locality feature will be represented as a single object as a multi-part polygon.

- Explanation
-
Varies as per scale of capture of Vicmap Property. Vicmap Property is classified as 'BB' accuracy, ie. 90% of well-defined features are within 1mm, at plot scale, of their true position, eg. 1:500 equates to +/- 0.5metre and 1:25,000 equates to +/- 25 metres. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the spatial accuracy of the major part of the data set, at all scales is frequently better than BB.

- Statement
-
Local Government defines suburb, town and rural district boundaries after seeking appropriate consultation with all interested parties. Proposed boundaries/names are submitted to the Registrar of Geographic Names for approval and formal gazettal. As boundary and name information changes are processed through the formal definition and gazettal process at the Registrar of Geographic Names, the amendments will be flagged and the dataset will be updated by the maintainer with all new boundaries aligned to Vicmap Property.
- Description
-
Vicmap Property is the principal source of the digital data. Its accuracy varies across Victoria with metropolitan Melbourne source data collected at 1:500 scale and rural Victoria data collected at 1:25,000. For futher information see the Vicmap Property product specification at http://www.land.vic.gov.au/vicmap .
