Project layer depicting housing activity over the years from 2005 and 2016

This layer provides an annual view of changes in lots and residential dwellings associated with housing development projects over each year for Metropolitan Melbourne defined by the 32 local government authorities. Project lot and dwelling information is assigned to polygons representing housing development projects that comprise one or more land parcels for the particular year. Projects are only identified where there is development activity or change such as demolition or construction.Key fields include: Number of lots pre and post development; residential dwellings pre and post development; vacant lots pre and post development; total demolitions and constructed dwellings; and total construction projects. Polygon linework is consistent with the corresponding Parcel View - Vicmap Property dataset (VMPROP_PARCEL_VIEW) for when a project was first defined.
