Predicted Near Future Climate Change Impacts on the HGL of the ACT 2017 (2nd Ed)

This dataset supersedes all earlier versions of 'Predicted Near Future Climate Change Impacts on the HGL of the ACT'. It incorporates HGL boundary and management area edits based on updated soil landscape mapping for the ACT.
The focus of this dataset is climate change impacts in the Australian Capital Territory. It contains digital spatial data developed to assist in land management decision making in the ACT. 
The dataset contains an assessment of climate change impacts on 14 variables defined by the NARCliM (NSW/ACT Regional Climate Modelling) project for three selected regional climate projection ensembles (multimodel mean, CCCMA3.1-R2, ECHAM5-R3). Only near-future (1990-2009 to 2020-2039) projections were considered.
Each variable was considered using annual and seasonal time periods. Field names in the dataset follow the following format:
Field name = MODEL_NARCliM VARIABLE_TIME PERIOD 
Values for each element of the field name are summarised as follows:
MODEL (Near future - 1990-2009 to 2020-2039)  
C – Consensus (NARCliM Multimodel Consensus Scenario) 
W – Wetter (NARCliM CCCMA3.1-R2 Wetter Scenario)  
D – Drier (NARCliM ECHAM5-R3 Drier Scenario)

Vegetation Condition Benchmarks V1.2

Vegetation Condition Benchmarks describe the reference state to which sites are compared to score their site-scale biodiversity values or set goals for management or restoration. This file contains the most current vegetation condition benchmarks available in BioNet and associated information including: large tree threshold size; benchmark confidence; and the classification level at which benchmarks were created.
The ‘Vegetation Condition Benchmarks V1.2’ file contains benchmarks for the full combination of Bioregions in NSW (n=18) and vegetation classes for which data were available (n=95). There are therefore 1,710 different regional vegetation class (RVCs) rows of benchmarks contained (18x95). Many of these RVCs do not exist in the current landscape but were the product of the modelling approaches used for cover and richness (e.g. Subtropical Rainforests in the Australian Alps Bioregion). Approximately 650 RVCs are extant in the current landscape.
To view the four files that this dataset is derived from, refer to the 'Dataset relationship' section below.

High Environmental Value for Central West Orana Regional Growth Planning area - detailed

This polygon shape file is a 1:25,000 – 1: 50 000 environmental dataset combining 14 input data sources.  These are outlined in the lineage statement.  The input data sets identify agreed HEV criteria for the purposes of regional strategic planning and other environmental assessment projects that require identification of significant biodiversity values.  This project was undertaken by Planning Services Unit, OEH with input from all the Planning teams in Regional Operations, OEH. The Central West Orana High Environmental Values dataset covers the Central West Orana Regional Growth Planning area.
There is a data gap in the mapping between the Central West and the Central Tablelands CMA boundaries due to a portion of the statewide coverage of  vegetation mapping (STVM) products not being complete.

Kempsey LGA (Western Portion) Vegetation. VIS_ID 244

Vegetation Distribution Map for the western portion of Kempsey Shire Council.  Project undertaken by GHD consultants in 2007. The western portion is generally considered to be those lands within the shire boundary on the western side of the Pacific Highway.;
;
The vegetation mapping was carried out using Landsat 5 TM (imagery taken between Dec 2004 and August 2005) scene and topographic variables as a basis for multi-variate statistical classification techniques. The image was 'seeded' with areas of known vegetation type 'samples', as determined by the field survey, from which spectral and topographic similarity was used to predict the presence of those types elsewhere in the image. A few iterations of model and map refinement and validation were then used to produce a final map that was then converted to the preferred GIS format for display.;

Saltmarsh Mapping of Sydney Harbour and Parramatta River 2006. VIS_ID 4157

An assessment of the Coastal Saltmarsh Ecological Endangered Community (EEC) in Sydney Harbour and the Parramatta River by NSW Department of Primary Industries, Cronulla. The first map showing the distribution of saltmarsh for the Parramatta River-Sydney Harbour estuary was created from aerial photos taken in the late 1970s (West et al. 1985). A subsequent map prepared from photos taken in 2000 (West et al. 2004) suggested there had been little change in distribution. However, recent anecdotal reports indicate that there may be many more small patches of saltmarsh than can be defined with aerial photography. Aerial photography and pedestrian survey were used to locate saltmarsh on the foreshore of the Parramatta River-Sydney Harbour, including the estuarine portions of Middle Harbour, Lane Cove River and Duck River. The location, condition and species composition of each patch was determined. Saltmarsh was defined as any intertidal community containing one or more species defined as "Characteristic Species" by the NSW Scientific Committee (2004) in its listing of Coastal Saltmarsh as an Endangered Ecological Community. The most recent aerial photographic coverage of the catchment of the Parramatta River was obtained. The boundaries of saltmarsh were mapped via onscreen digitising using Arcview version 3.3. To ensure consistent spatial accuracy, all digitising was carried out at an onscreen scale of 1: 700 or better. Presumptive maps of saltmarsh were printed at various scales to facilitate on-ground observations. Comprehensive pedestrian and boat based field surveys were carried out of the estuary's entire shoreline, with all saltmarsh patches identified field recorded, regardless of size. The results of field surveys were used to correct and re digitise the preliminary map as appropriate. 
This 2006 version was supplied as a final step to Stage 2 in 2008.  It has less polygons (757) than the former version (772).

Wingecarribee Fine-scale Native Vegetation Map (TECs) Version v2.1. VIS_ID 4676 & 4677

The Wingecarribee Shire LGA Vegetation Mapping Project, a collaboration between the Council and the OEH State Vegetation Mapping Program, has  produced three vegetation map products. These include the primary thematic layer in this dataset, which is  a map of fine-scale scale Plant Community Type (PCT) (see VIS_ID 4670 https://datasets.seed.nsw.gov.au/dataset/wingecarribee-fine-scale-native-vegetation-map-version-v2-0-vis-id-4670), and two TEC layers described here in this metadata statement
Version 2.0 of all three datasets underwent internal review during May and June 2017. Although the review has been completed, this version (2.1) is currently unavailable until the State Vegetation Type Map for coastal NSW is complete, due June 2019.
These TEC surfaces are derived from the PCT mapping combined with expert rules that interpret the legal / ecological / geographical descriptions (Final Determinations and Listing/Conservation Advices). The ecological rules can be obtained upon request. These feature datsets include feature classes of the candidate extent of select TEC’s.
The TEC_Ext surfaces are more extended surfaces than the standard TEC boundaries and are derived from the presence of relevant PCT’s occurring in the PCTID map surface as well as PCT’s occurring in  the EnvPCT2 and EnvPCT3 fields (where modelled probability &gt; 0.3). The EnvPCT2 and EnvPCT3 fields indicate the 2nd and 3rd mostly likely PCT in a polygon respectively according to the modelling.

Illawarra Shoalhaven Habitat and Connectivity Modelling to Support Regional Planning

This dataset models habitat and connectivity for native vegetation and is used to define the Illawarra Shoalhaven Regional Biodiversity Corridors which is a sub-component of High Environmental Value (HEV) land, as mapped and referred to in the Illawarra Shoalhaven Regional Plan (DPIE 2021). The modelling identifies areas of native vegetation that are most likely to function as habitat for native fauna settlement, living and breeding, or dispersal and movement through the landscape.  The modelling is based on the findings of many studies of native fauna and how they use and move through native habitat in fragmented landscapes. As well as fauna habitat connectivity values, smaller patches of native vegetation have been shown to be critically important for the conservation of all biodiversity.
