Ecological Vegetation Class lookup

Find your EVC.

Enter a Victorian address to identify the Ecological Vegetation Class that would have naturally occurred on your site — modelled from pre-1750 vegetation communities. A free tool by Gardener & Son.

Three steps to your EVC.

01

Enter address

Type a Victorian address or use your current location.

02

We look it up

Your coordinates are matched against Victorian Government spatial data for pre-1750 vegetation communities.

03

See your EVC

Get your Ecological Vegetation Class, bioregion, and conservation status — plus links to indigenous plants suited to your site.

This tool identifies Ecological Vegetation Classes based on Victorian Government spatial data. Results represent modelled pre-1750 vegetation communities and reflect broad ecological patterns rather than site-specific assessments.

For planning permits, compliance requirements, or detailed ecological assessments, verify with Nature Kit or consult a qualified ecologist.
