Nature Kit

Picture
Illustrated by Faye Vyner, Leptospermum myrsinoides
Nature kit is an interactive mapping programme developed by the Department of Environment. Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) to map the EVC's within Victoria.
It can be used to select which EVC is applicable to any particular area.

Careful consideration must be given to correctly locating your property, this will ensure you identify which of the two Bioregions occurring within our YYLN apply to you, otherwise the information contained in the EVC Benchmark link selected may not be applicable to your property. To assist with this process, change the basemap view to hybrid (aerial imagery with labels) and reduce the ‘Adjust layer opacity’ sliders for any boxes that are checked within the toolbox menu on the left of the screen, this will provide a clear, unobstructed view of the basemap.

To locate an area in Nature Kit
  1. Access Nature Kit (click the button above)
  2. Select the Search Location tab
  3. Select the Search Address icon
  4. Enter the address of the property
  5. In the Layers drop down list select Theme: Pre-1750 EVC's
  6. Click the Terrain box Off or move its slider to the left
  7. Click on Reference maps/natural boundaries/bioregions
  8. Locate and zoom into the area required and click the map. A pop up box will give details of the EVC for the selected area
The greatest joy in nature is the absence of man.
