How Victoria is mapped

Victoria classifies its pre-1750 vegetation as Ecological Vegetation Classes (EVCs) — hundreds of communities, each with a benchmark describing its characteristic species across tree, shrub and ground layers, mapped against bioregions. It is the most detailed and species-ready pre-European mapping of any Australian state.

We hand Victorian addresses to findmyevc

Because Victoria is mapped so finely, Victorian lookups get the full EVC answer — with species benchmarks — from our sister tool findmyevc.com. Search here and we'll show the national classification and send you straight through to the detailed EVC result for your exact address.

Planting from an EVC

An EVC benchmark is effectively a ready-made indigenous planting palette: the species that defined that community, layer by layer. It's the clearest path from “what grew here” to “what to plant” anywhere in the country.
