Farm dams of Western Australia (DPIRD-083)

Spatial boundaries of over 175,000 agricultural dams in Western Australia. This product is an improved version of the ‘Farm dams of the South West agricultural region of WA (DPIRD-083)’ dataset. This new dataset has an increased spatial extent covering all of WA, in addition this new dataset includes a further 11,6000 dams and every dam has been re extracted at a higher resolution. This dataset was created with Deep Learning image segmentation of satellite data (Vivid 2.0), with further filtering of each feature with a Deep Learning binary classifier. The imagery that this data was derived from was mostly captured from 2018 to 2019. Preselection of sites was done by combining dam locations from ‘Farm dams of the South West agricultural region of WA (DPIRD-083)’, ‘DEA Waterbodies’ (https://www.dea.ga.gov.au/products/dea-waterbodies) and ‘Medium Scale Topo Water (Polygon) (LGATE-016)’ (https://catalogue.data.wa.gov.au/dataset/medium-scale-topo-water-polygon-lgate-016).
