Community Indicators Victoria has developed an online Geographic Information System (GIS) which is an interactive mapping and analysis tool to enable visual communication of wellbeing indicators for the state of Victoria. The Wellbeing Map is a unique section of the CIV website providing a visualisation tool using Instant Atlas to present wellbeing information in a geographical context revealing spatial variations and patterns across Victoria.

Community Wellbeing Reports and Live Reports present community indicator data as numeric and graphical results while the Wellbeing Map provides data as a map of Wellbeing for all Victorians Local Government Areas. By integrating maps, data and charts in one single interface, the Wellbeing Map allows interactive manipulation of wellbeing data and provides an additional level of data interpretation. The Wellbeing Map has been included in Community Indicators Victoria to encourage and enhance community engagement, evidence-based policy making and knowledge translation leading to improved community wellbeing outcomes.

A new page will load when you enter the Wellbeing Map section of the site and provide a complete map of Victoria with the boundaries of the state’s Local Government Areas (LGAs). The area of individual LGAs are highlighted on the map after being selected from the alphabetical list on the left hand side menu and indicators and measures are displayed as a title in the heading section of the page.
