Richmond River Floodplain Prioritisation Study

The Coastal Floodplain Prioritisation Study covered seven estuaries on the NSW floodplain.  The study included an extensive data collection and collation process to improve understanding of the processes and areas that contribute to poor water quality and improve overall floodplain management. The data delivered here includes information on floodplain drainage infrastructure, soil stratigraphy and hydraulic conductivity, sea level rise vulnerability and drain cross sections.  The final outcomes of the prioritisation for the Richmond River floodplain with respect to acid and blackwater generation is also provided.

Walking count sites

Twice a year we carry out walking count surveys to give us a picture of walking trends across the local area. The counts take place at around 100 locations from 6am to midnight in fair weather conditions, on a weekday and a day on the weekend in March and October. The survey locations were selected based on the Liveable Green Network, such as locations of interest or where change is occurring or expected.  View this dataset in our walking counts app.  For more information on walking counts, visit the City of Sydney website.

IMOS - Ships of Opportunity – Bioacoustics - Data from Austral Fisheries FV Southern Champion in the Indian Ocean from the 10th of May 2011 to the 12th of May 2011.

This Bio Acoustic data was collected in May 2011 under the IMOS Ship of Opportunity (SOOP) Bio Acoustic (BA) program on Austral Fisheries FV Southern Champion (IMOS platform code: VHGI).
Departed:  Australia, May 10, 2011
Arrived:     Australia, May 12, 2011
Bio acoustic signals allow understanding how mid-water prey species (known collectively as micronekton) such as small fish, squid, krill and jellyfish are distributed. 
Mid-water prey form the core of the ocean food web, transferring energy from primary producers at the ocean surface to top predators such as tunas, billfish, sharks, seals and seabirds.The mass and distribution of micronekton reflects broad-scale patterns in the structure and function of the ocean, as well as the dynamics of marine ecosystems. 
Acoustic mapping is done from fishing and scientific vessels that are equipped with scientifically-calibrated 38 kHz digital echo-sounders that record a slice of acoustic backscatter to a depth of 1500 meters.

Aggregated Data: Australian Species Occurrences

Aggregated Australian species occurrence data from 1900 to the present using a suite of facets of most importance for environmental assessments. Occurrence records were aggregated and organised by the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA, https://ala.org.au/) and include survey and monitoring data collected and managed by the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS, https://imos.org.au/) and the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network (TERN, https://tern.org.au/).

Sydney Hawk Dragonfly Indicative Distribution in NSW

The Sydney Hawk Dragonfly (Austrocordulia leonardiis) an extremely
Description rare species of dragonfly. It is black and yellow with clear wings
spanning 60-70mm, and with an abdomen length of 50-55mm. The
aquatic larvae have a body length of 22-24mm. The Sydney Hawk
Dragonfly spends most of its life underwater as an aquatic larva,
before metamorphosing and emerging from the water as an adult.
Adults are thought to only live for several weeks or a few months.
They have specific habitat requirements, and have only ever been
collected from deep river pools with cooler water and permanent
flow. Larvae are found under rocks.

Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA), Version 7 (Regions)

Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA) version 7.0 represents a landscape based approach to classifying the land surface of Australia. 89 biogeographic regions and 419 sub regions have been delineated, each reflecting a unifying set of major environmental influences which shape the occurrence of flora and fauna and their interaction with the physical environment across Australia and its external territories (excluding Antarctica). IBRA Version 7.0 data consists of two datasets. IBRA bioregions, which is a larger scale regional classification of homogenous ecosystems, and sub regions, which are more localised. IBRA Version 7.0 is the result of both significant changes to certain IBRA 6.1 boundaries, plus refinement of other boundaries due to better data availability amongst some states and territories, and alterations by the states/territories along state borders. The updated boundaries were jointly defined by the Commonwealth, State and Territory nature and conservation agencies. In this respect refinements were carried out to all mainland jurisdictions with significant changes in Queensland and South Australia. In addition the dataset was also updated to more closely conform to the Geoscience Australia 1:100K State borders, and a standard coding/naming convention introduced (for both regions and sub-regions) resulting in differences to both names and codes used in earlier IBRA Versions.
Various sources were used to delineate islands - these included the GA100K Admin layer plus the Australian Maritime Boundaries dataset, a Coral Sea dataset (held in ERIN) and the GA Commonwealth Fisheries 2006 dataset.

Coastal IFOA Forest Structure Analysis Webmap

The NSW Natural Resources Commission (NRC) engaged the University of Newcastle to analyse Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) for monitoring forest conditions and biophysical outcomes. The analysis looked at the relationships between topographic position, fire severity and harvesting history, including harvest intensity.The ALS data used was LiDAR LAS data captured across 540,000 hectares of NSW state forest. These included 27 state forests across 7 regions (Eden, Batemans Bay, Bulahdelah, Wauchope, Coffs Harbour, Styx River and Casino) across 3 separate capture years (2012, 2016 and 2023).The LiDAR metrics developed include canopy top height, canopy coverage, canopy foliage density, and skew. The canopy top height and canopy cover LiDAR metrics displayed in this webmap were calculated at a 30 metre x 30 metre resolution.Read the report here: Retrospective Analysis of Forest Structure Change: ALS Data Comparison and InterpretationThis webmap displays the spatial outputs of this project.-----------------------------------------------------------------------To leave feedback on your experience with this web site or its data, follow this link:NRC Contact PageTo leave feedback on your experience with the Spatial Collaboration Portal, follow this link (account creation required) : Spatial Collaboration Portal Feedback____________________________________________________This webmap is part of the Coastal Integrated Forestry Operations Approval (Coastal IFOA) monitoring program.

Grasslands, Pre-Settlement, South-eastern Highlands. VIS_ID 4099

Three sets of maps between them provide an almost complete coverage of the pre-settlement boundaries of natural temperate grasslands within the study area. They are the boundaries delineating grasslands of the Monaro (developed as part of broad vegetation mapping there (Costin, 1954; digitised by NPWS in 1998), the grassland boundaries in the ACT (digitised by ACT P&amp;CS WRM) and the pre-settlement boundaries developed as a central program of this project, and covering a significant portion of South Eastern Highlands Bioregion. In Costin’s (1954) map of the vegetation of the Monaro region, the map units delineated represent Costin’s vegetation alliances. ACT vegetation was mapped by Pryor in 1939. This mapping included 5 alliances of woody species and one grassland alliance. This interpretation of ACT grassland areas has survived into modern mapping interpretations with some modifications. The current products mapped new boundaries for areas beyond the Monaro and ACT. This product present pre-European settlement grassland boundaries for an area covered by a series of 1:100 000 map sheets (Braidwood, Boorowa, Brindabella, Canberra (excluding the ACT section), Crookwell, Goulburn, Gunning and Yass).
