ArcGIS Layer files for mapping Urban Heat Island and Heat Vulnerability Index |
Name: ArcGIS Layer files for mapping Urban Heat Island and Heat Vulnerability Index Protocol: WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Description: Layer files for symbology when using ArcGIS/ArcMap v. 10.x for displaying the dataset. The compressed file (zip) contains two layer files, one for each Urban Heat Island (manual classification of temperature ranges) and Heat Vulnerability Index (discrete attribute classes 0 to 5). Temperature ranges for UHI map degrees Celsius deviation from the reference, and include less than 0 (i.e., cooler than reference), 0 to 3 degrees warmer, 3 to 6 degrees warmer, 6 to 9 degrees warmer and warmer than 9 degrees from the reference. Two colour variations of the layer file are included. Function: download |
ArcGIS REST Service - Urban Heat Island |
Name: ArcGIS REST Service - Urban Heat Island Protocol: WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Description: An ArcGIS Server web service represents a GIS resource—such as a map, locator, or image—that is located on an ArcGIS Server site and is made available to client applications. Depending on the layers enabled, this web service allows a user to query its features and/or visualise the dataset. This service is aimed at advanced geographical information users, and will require access to geographical information system (GIS) software such as ArcGIS/ArcMap. Function: download |
WMS - Urban Heat Island |
Name: WMS - Urban Heat Island Protocol: WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Description: Web Map Service (WMS) is a standard protocol for serving georeferenced map images over the internet that are generated by a map server using data from a GIS Database (NSW Government - Spatial Web Services Register June 2015). WMS allows a user to spatially visualise the dataset, but not query its features. This service is aimed at advanced geographical information users, and will require access to geographical information system (GIS) software such as QGIS and ArcGIS/ArcMap Function: download |

Lineage |
The dataset was developed through a contract with the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT). Data was developed following the methodology for "Estimation of Land Surface Temperature and Urban Heat Island effect for Australian urban centres", from Commonwealth Science and Research Organisation (CSIRO) (Report EP173542). The processed Landsat 8 imagery was integrated with the modified Mesh Block polygon dataset with the assistance of Western Australia University. The modified Mesh Block consists of the ABS Mesh Block polygons modified with road and rail features from the NSW Digital Cadastral Database to add infrastructure. |

DQ Completeness Commission |
|
Effective date |
2019-03-12 |
Explanation |
The dataset has complete coverage for the Significant Urban Area of Sydney Greater Metropolitan Area. This includes the major urban, urban, peri-urban and other urban areas of the included Local Government Areas. The dataset has complete coverage for the SUA in the Greater Sydney Region and the Local Government Areas within it. |
DQ Completeness Omission |
|
Effective date |
2019-03-12 |
Explanation |
There is no obvious completeness omissions with the dataset. An explanation of potential omissions is explained in the attached CSIRO Report. |
DQ Conceptual Consistency |
|
Effective date |
2019-03-12 |
Explanation |
Local Government Area users of the data will need to double check that their known boundaries are correctly identified. In the dataset, the LGA name that is given to a Modified Mesh Block may be inaccurate, due to the modified Mesh Blocks boundaries not nesting within the LGA boundaries completely. The LGA boundaries were overlaid with the Modified Mesh Blocks polygons and the LGA names were assigned to the Mesh Block with the greatest area within it. Note 2017 LGA boundaries were used. The knock on effect is that the Mesh Block may not correspond to the correct District. This issue most likely occurs with more rural Mesh Blocks at the boundaries, such as near Campbelltown, Wollondilly or Sutherland. It may also occur where roads form a boundary between LGAs. As adequate data validation was performed, this issue is likely minor and not affecting every LGA. Other possible conceptual consistency matters may be addressed in the attached CSIRO Report. |
DQ Topological Consistency |
|
Effective date |
2019-03-12 |
Explanation |
There are no obvious topological inconsistencies in the dataset. An explanation of potential inconsistencies is explained in the attached CSIRO Report. |
