The NSW Heat Vulnerability Index (HVI) dataset identifies areas to monitor where
populations in the Sydney Greater Metropolitan Area are more vulnerable to the
adverse effects of urban heat, as of Summer 2015-2016. HVI utilises indicators for
exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity to calculate an overall heat vulnerability
index. Expressed through the data, a vulnerability of 1 represents a combination of low
exposure, low sensitivity and/or high adaptive capacity. A vulnerability of 5 represents
high exposure, high sensitivity and/or low adaptive capacity. The calculation of HVI and
the inputs to the exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity indicators are explained in
the metadata. The HVI data is aggregated to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS)
Statistical Area Level 1 (SA1) polygon dataset to enable spatial analysis to support local
policy and decision making. It can be used in conjunction with the NSW urban
vegetation cover dataset for the same time period for broader analysis of the
relationship of heat to green cover.
