Area representing the watershed catchment of a waterway or the hydraulic catchment of an underground stormwater drain for each Melbourne Water drain / catchment number. Captured using available contours and underground stormwater pipe network information. This layer is intended:

  1. To enable the identification of the receiving Melbourne Water waterway/drain for any property, area or point.
  2. To provide a framework of catchments for hydrologic modelling that can be further divided or amalgamated to suit the needs of the modeller.
