Historic Woody Vegetation Mapping of the NSW Wheat-belt - Band B. VIS_ID 4183

This map and reports (cited below) present the results of research on the rate of change of native woody vegetation in the Central New South Wales wheatbelt. The study was carried out over three years and analysed vegetation change between the 1980s and 2000. The project tested methods to map changes in native woody vegetation using direct visual inspection of readily available Landsat TM satellite imagery. NPWS mapping of native woody vegetation types within the wheatbelt provided the 1980s baseline information for the study. Clearing was identified on the satellite images and digitised. The resulting clearing maps were used to produce updated maps of remaining native woody vegetation for each monitoring period. Systematic validation of the mapping was done by comparison with specially flown, fine-scale aerial photography. Validation results showed that the mapping consistently and accurately distinguished between clearing and areas of no-change with typical accuracy rates of approximately 95%. [VIS_ID 4183]

To ensure high accuracy Aerometerex partnered with a
surveying company to measure 10 ground control points within the area of
interest (AOI).

An initial aerotriangulation (AT) is performed to calculate
image positions and generate a sparse point cloud. The results are reviewed by
an AT specialist, with any errors corrected. Ground control points (GCPs) are
then imported, and the AT is optimized for accuracy. Multiple checks using GCPs
and checkpoints ensure the model meets required precision.

Once validated, the images and positional data are processed
through Itwin Capture Modeller on a cluster of nodes, generating the 3D model
in a tiled format. Quality control checks are carried out at various stages
throughout the data capture and production process, by a team of dedicated
quality control staff, in adherence to company methodologies and standards.

Source Information:

In a helicopter we capture from multiple angles within the
project area. This ensures that every side of buildings and other assets are
given equal focus and deliver a far superior result than other methods.

South Creek Hydrogeological Landscapes: June 2020 (First Edition)

This dataset was developed to support the South Creek Stormwater Project (SCSP). Primarily a desktop study, existing Western Sydney HGLs covering the South Creek area have been reviewed and adjusted to reflect available soil mapping. LF7 landform modelling for the catchment has been used to define HGL management zones to which salinity hazard ratings are assigned. These ratings are at a landform element scale, an improvement on the original HGL ratings which were applied to the whole HGL unit.
For this dataset, additional information can be found in the relevant HGL unit descriptions provided in the original Western Sydney HGL data package.
Spatial resolution for this product is 1:50,000.
This is intended to be an interim product. A future update will incorporate 
 more recent refinements to the soil landscape boundaries and provide basic descriptions for the updated HGL units in South Creek. It is also intended to add a small area of the Western Sydney Aerotropolis zone that falls outside the South Creek catchment.
The HGL concept provides a structure for understanding how differences in salinity are expressed across the landscape. A HGL spatially differentiates areas with similar salt stores and pathways for salt mobilisation. The process of delineating a HGL relies on the integration of a number of causative factors: geology, soils, slope, regolith thickness, and climate; an understanding of the different modes of salinity development; and the impacts of salinity within landscapes (land salinity, salt load and salt concentration in streams due to salt contributions from base flow and runoff). Information sources such as soil landscape maps, site characterisation, salinity occurrence maps, hydrogeological data, surface water and groundwater data are incorporated into standardised unit descriptions.
Hydrogeological Landscapes (HGL) and associated salinity impacts and hazards are available as a custom layer in eSPADE, which includes links to individual HGL unit descriptions.

High Environmental Value for the New England North West Regional Growth Planning area - detailed

This polygon shape file is a 1:25,000 – 1: 50 000 environmental dataset combining 16 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 New England North West High Environmental Values dataset covers the New England North West Regional Growth Planning area.

High Ecological Value Waterways and Water Dependent Ecosystems - NORTHERN BEACHES LGA

A map of the high ecological value waterways and water dependent ecosystems for the Northern Beaches LGA was prepared by the Science Division of the Department of Planning, Industry and Environment and the Northern Beaches Council, with input layers and support for the map provided by the former NSW Department of Primary Industries-Fisheries and Department of Industry-Crown Lands and Water. The basis for the map arises from Science Division inputs to strategic planning processes. For example, the map has been included in the Land Use and Infrastructure Implementation Plans for the Wilton (Wilton2040, page 22) and Greater Macarthur (interim plan, page 36) Priority Growth Areas. This map was specifically developed for input to Local Government Local Strategic Planning Statements to support Council’s delivery of Strategy 25.1 of the Greater Sydney Region Plan.
The map shows areas where waterways and water dependent ecosystems are defined as high ecological value, based on definitions, guidelines and policies under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016, Fisheries Management Act 1994, Water Management Act 2000, Manly Local Environmental Plan 2013 and the Warringah Development Control Plan 2011. Water dependent ecosystems are defined as wetlands, and flora and fauna that rely on water sources (including groundwater).
The map represents an overlay of 39 indicators being used by the State Government to define high value, however, not all 39 indicators will be present in any one LGA. For example, there are 36 indicators making up the map for the Northern Beaches LGA (see Attachment 1 below). A comprehensive field assessment was undertaken to assess the accuracy of the map. This showed that areas identified as high ecological value were accurate to 94%. It should be noted that the individual indicators have not been ground-truthed and it is recommended that field assessments and/or a comparison to local mapping be undertaken prior to any decisions being made.
The map was created by initially placing a 1 ha (to correspond with a lot size) hexagon grid over the LGA, and attributing the grid with the area, length and/or frequency of occurrence of high value water dependent ecosystems. The purpose of the map is to identify strategic planning priorities for protecting and improving the health of high value waterways and water dependent ecosystems in the LGA. Once identified, the priorities can be used as a basis for identifying aquatic biodiversity refugia, stream rehabilitation efforts and setting management targets and/or land use planning controls that would protect or improve the health of waterways and water dependent ecosystems so they provide the essential services and functions expected of a cool blue-green corridor.

Khatambuhl Nature Reserve Vegetation 2002. VIS_ID 380

Vegetation community mapping for Khatambuhl Nature Reserve by Paul McDonald, 2002. Traditional API methodology was used to complete this job across five reserves for the Manning Area, Mid North Coast NPWS Region:;
1.Brimbin Nature Reserve and adjoining freehold lands.;
2.Coxcomb NR and Anderson VCA.;
3.Khatambuhl NR;
4.Two sections of Killabakh NR ;
5.Freehold purchase area on northwest corner of Goonook NR, around Mount Goonook.;
The project consisted of fieldwork where possible and then interpretation of the photos to define the species types present. Some follow up fieldwork was undertaken.;
Rather than assign a species type label to each polygon on the area, the polygon was given a number from 1 to n, for each area. A table for the area has a description of each polygon. VIS_ID 380
