Overview
Victoria StateView is a collection of high-resolution 1.5m satellite imagery across Victoria derived from the Earth observation satellite constellation of AIRBUS SPOT6/7.
The high level of accuracy and detail provided by satellite imagery allows for precise mapping and monitoring of large areas, making it easier to identify changes over time. This can be particularly useful in areas such as disaster response, environmental monitoring, agriculture, forestry, urban planning and infrastructure development.
What is available
This collection will contain three state-wide satellite imagery mosaics:
- 2021-2022 imagery
- 2022-2023 imagery
- 2023-2024 imagery
The satellite images that form the mosaics also form part of the collection as a separate product.
The satellite mosaics are available in both natural colour and false colour, providing users with a comprehensive view of the state over time. The mosaics are colour-balanced to be seamless and orthorectified to a high spatial accuracy.
