Levee Profile Mapping

Launch Map

The Department has produced a series of maps showing levee profiles along the lower River Murray between Mannum and Wellington.

The 32 maps are based on aerial images of the irrigation areas and also show chainage (the lengths along levees that correlate with the crest profile of levee banks).

Both Government-owned and private levees - 110 km in total - are included in this map series.

The maps are high-resolution and can be downloaded. They should be used in conjunction with the Department's weekly Flow Advice Update for the latest information on river flows and heights.
