EM31 soil salinity survey of the Coal River Valley, Tasmania

A soil salinity survey was conducted in the Coal River Valley in south eastern Tasmania. The survey was conducted in winter of 2001 using a EM31 conductivity meter mounted on a 4wd quad bike. The instrument measures electrical conductivity near the surface of the soil profile and responds to changes in salinity, soil texture, soil moisture and temperature. A total of approx 7000ha was surveyed. This point data was transformationed by way of 'linear kriging' - into an apparent EC grid (array) with 20m cell size. This method being the simplest and most effective interpolation method we tested. The dataset reveals 'likely' salt stores at depth (down to 5m) throughout the survey area. More detailed surveys (conducted down to ~2m) are also available for some selected much smaller areas within the study locale. The variation in apparent ec ranged from 0.01 to over 4dS/m.

TasVeg 2.0

TASVEG is a Tasmania-wide vegetation map produced by the Tasmanian Vegetation Mapping and Monitoring Program (TVMMP). The vegetation map comprises 147 distinct vegetation communities contributing to TASVEG at a scale of 1:25,000.  A further 11 mapping units complete the coverage of the state to include modified and predominantly unvegetated landscapes. The TASVEG mapping builds on and incorporates the Regional Forest Agreement (RFA) mapping of forest vegetation communities, originally mapped at 1:100,000 scale, as well as the World Heritage Area (WHA) mapping that was carried out at 1:25,000 scale. TASVEG is continually revised and updated at a scale of 1:25,000. Included in the dataset is a vegetation map of Macquarie Island that comprises 9 mapping units (incorporating 7 distinct vegetation communities), bringing the total TASVEG mapping units to 165, with 154 distinct vegetation communities mapped. The Macquarie Island data was provided by The Australian Antarctic Division Data Centre.

Fire Management Units

The Fire Management Unit (FMU) dataset provides information to planners and their managers on the spatial distribution of Fire Management Units (aka. FMUs or ‘burn units’) from various agencies including, but not limited to: Tasmania Fire Service, Parks and Wildlife Service and Sustainable Timber Tasmania.
Fire Management Unit boundaries are be defined by appropriate landscape features, e.g. roads, rivers or coastlines. In some cases the boundaries may not be able to be defined by landscape features i.e. when fuel breaks need to be created. Fire Management Unit boundaries can be changed by those preparing the plan, and may change over time from conception through to completion of the plan, as field validation, neighbour consultation and other factors dictate.
Data maintained by the Fuel Reduction Unit (FRU), Tasmania Fire Service.

Nutrient Risk to Foreshores in the North and Cradle Coast NRM Regions

This dataset is part of the assessment and mapping of foreshore values, condition and pressure in the North and Cradle Coast Natural Resource Management (NRM) Regions of Tasmania. The 13 line maps produced in this study are intended to be used as a tool to assist managers and stakeholders in the identification of management issues with regards to foreshore planning, development, and natural resources. Assessment of the foreshore is based on the division of the mean high water mark into 100 m line segments. Using an assessment framework, each foreshore segment is assigned a score for a series of environmental stressors and values. Segments are colour coded based on their score to reflect their values and the differing levels of risk associated with each stressor. This digital line map is a representation of the risk to the intertidal zone in regard to nutrients in the North and Cradle Coast NRM regions and is derived from an assessment of pressure and vulnerability. An explanatory report is available from the data custodian and from the Aquenal website which provides detailed methods and further explanation of the dataset.

Modelled Land Capability of Tasmania - St Pauls 100,000 Mapsheet

A predictive model has been established and tested to account for variations in the landscape to reflect changes in agricultural land capability class (on a progressive rating of 1: good - 7: poor). This dataset (and map) provides a prediction of the most likely land capability class to be expected in a particular location based on several layers of readily available information. These layers included geology, rainfall, slope, elevation, forest cover and surface drainage status. These data layers were input into a Geographic Information System modelling framework. Using previous experience and limited visits in the field, the output has been produced as a digital dataset and 1: 100,000 map. It was found to provide a relatively good impression of the landscapes potential for agricultural persuits (ie cropping and grazing). It was found to represent changes in capability class very well where geology, climate or slope control capability. In those areas where subsurface drainage controlled land capability it was found to be less reliable. Overall however as these areas of the State were previously devoid of any broadscale land resource information for this purpose - this map provides a valuable fist step in discerning land capability.
