Alcohol and other drug statistics and mapping

Overview

AODstats maps information on the harms related to alcohol, illicit and pharmaceutical drug use in Victoria. The maps bring together results from alcohol and drug-related primary and secondary data sources available in Victoria.

Data includes:

  • ambulance attendances
  • hospital admissions
  • deaths
  • service treatment episodes
  • telephone and online counselling services
  • serious road injuries
  • assault and domestic violence incidents
  • needle syringe program and
  • liquor licences

Data will typically be presented across a ten-year period (where available) and updated twice per year. Therefore, each six-month period, new indicator data will be added and existing data will be amended where required. These data releases will usually be available on the AODstats website during the second and fourth quarters each year.
