Namoi surface water mine footprints - charts

## **Abstract** 

This dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.



This dataset contains all the data and plots showing the development of surface water mine footprints in the Namoi subregion. They are published in the Namoi 2.1.6 and Namoi 2.6.1 products.

## **Dataset History** 

The Namoi surface water mine footprints represents the area in a mine site that impacts surface runoff through interception and thus preventing its entry to the natural stream network. The footprints includes the entire area disturbed by the coal mine development, including mine pits, roads, spoil dumps, water storages and mine infrastructure. It may also include otherwise undisturbed parts of the landscape from which natural runoff is drained into mine-disturbed areas or retained in reservoirs. As new parts of the mine lease areas are opened up and rehabilitated areas established, the footprint changes over the life of a mine's operation.



This dataset represents a compilation of the change in area of all surface water mine footprints over the lifetime of the mine. The areas have been plotted and are presented in the NAM 2.1-2.2 and NAM 2.6.1 products.

Measuring Broadband Australia Report 17 Dataset Release

The Measuring Broadband Australia (MBA) program relies on households across Australia volunteering to receive a Whitebox that tests the performance of their fixed-line broadband services. Thousands of tests are run and these measurements are used to calculate average speeds achieved and other metrics for different volunteer groups, such as volunteers on the NBN fixed-line services and volunteers on NBN fixed wireless services. The summary data released includes test results for all Whiteboxes used in MBA Report 17 for download, upload, latency and outages metrics. The results are de-identified to protect the privacy of the volunteers and the integrity of the MBA program.

Ramsar Wetlands of Australia

National dataset of Australia's Ramsar Wetlands. The Convention on Wetlands of International Importance (the Ramsar Convention) was signed in Ramsar, Iran on 2 February 1971. The Ramsar Convention aims to halt the worldwide loss of wetlands and to conserve, through wise use and management, those that remain. The Convention encourages member countries to nominate sites containing representative, rare or unique wetlands, or that are important for conserving biological diversity, to the List of Wetlands of International Importance (Ramsar sites). Australia was one of the first countries to become a Contracting Party to the Convention and designated the world's first Ramsar site, Cobourg Peninsula, in 1974. This project was initiated by the Wetlands Section of the Australian Government Department of the Environment. Spatial data was sourced from the relevant State and Territory agencies and compiled into a single national coverage.

Hydrodynamic model of the Cooper Creek floodplain


## **Abstract** 
This dataset was compiled by the Geological and Bioregional Assessment Program from source data referenced within the dataset and/or metadata. NOTE: LARGE FILE SIZE ~235 GB. The dataset contains the model files, inputs and outputs for the hydrodynamic model of the Cooper Creek floodplain. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement. The Cooper GBA region has a large floodplain that floods frequently. This dataset contains model setups and validation results of a 2D hydrodynamic model (MIKE21FM), and all inputs and outputs for selected historical flood events (one set each for the Queensland side and South Australian side of the Cooper Creek). The calibrated hydrodynamic model can be used to evaluate how flood characteristics may change under future scenarios (development and future climate change). Outputs from the hydrodynamic modelling include 6 hourly estimates of spatial flood extents across the modelling domain, and water depth and velocities for each mesh element for all the historical flood events used. The full details about the modelling (model setups, inputs and outputs) are described in details in the Cooper flood modelling report. This is a large dataset and may take several hours to several days to download depending on internet connection speed.


## **Attribution** 
Geological and Bioregional Assessment Program


## **History** 
The model setup includes model mesh and all related setup files, inputs include rainfall, potential evapotranspiration, LiDAR DEM, river and water holes bathymetry, classified Landsat images for the flood events used, soil characteristics, vegetation characteristics, observed streamflow at the upstream gauges and ungauged inflows along the model domain boundaries estimated using a regionally calibrated rainfall-runoff model.

GAL Group 2 contour data

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.



This dataset contains the hand-contoured potentiometric surfaces of the various aquifers within the Galilee subregion. Contour intervals are 20m.

## **Purpose** 

To depict the various thickness contours for the Aquifers which lie within the Galilee subregion.

## **Dataset History** 

Created using the QLD DNRM bores waterlevel dataset \[ff44f450-8fec-486b-b60d-0d53333a478d\].



Contours were interpreted and drawn by hand based on the above source data well lithology information. These contours were then scanned and digitized into ArcGIS shape files. Data was then refined using the ArcGIS spatial analyst tool set - 'smooth contour tools' to smooth the contours.

 

All edits and geoprocessing were performed using ESRI ArcGIS 10.3 software.



QAQC:

Data sets were searched for errors such as negative thickness, missing data, incorrectly calculated thickness, aquifers/aquitards with missing formations, and false XY data.



Data has undergone a QAQC verification process in order to capture and repair attribute and geometric errors.

Referrals Spatial Database

The Referrals Spatial Database records locations of referrals submitted to the Department under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC Act) 1999. A proponent (who are those proposing a development) must supply the maximum extent (location) of any proposed activities that need to be assessed under the EPBC Act through an application process. Referral boundaries should not be misinterpreted as development footprints but where referrals have been received by the Department.
 
It should be noted that not all referrals captured within the Referrals Spatial Database, are assessed and approved by the Minister for the Environment, as some are withdrawn before assessment can take place. For more detailed information on a referral a URL is provided to the EPBC Act Public notices pages. Status and detailed planning documentation is available on the EPBC Act Public notices (http://www.environment.gov.au/cgi-bin/epbc/epbc_ap.pl?). This includes some summary statistics and public notifications.

In the first instance where a proponent provides GIS data through a referral application, this is loaded as the polygons for a referral. Where this doesn't exist other means to digitise boundaries are employed to provide a relatively accurate reflection of the maximum extent for which the referral may impact. This sometimes takes the form of heads up digitising planning documents, sourcing from other state databases (such as PSMA Australia) features and coordinates supplied through the application forms.

Conservation Management Zones of Australia

The 23 Conservation Management Zones of Australia are geographic areas, classified according to their ecological and threat characteristics. The zones are also aligned with the Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation of Australia.

The Conservation Management Zones provide a way of understanding Australia’s natural environment that will assist in long-term conservation planning and help the Australian Government to better design, deliver and report on Natural Resource Management (NRM) investments, including ensuring alignment of national NRM priorities with local action.

The Conservation Management Zones also provide a filter through which to make national environmental and socio-economic data regionally meaningful, accessible and comprehensible to all. 

They provide a framework for gathering on-ground knowledge and expertise about the environment. This will improve information flow to the Australian Government and other key decision makers about regional NRM requirements, best practice management, emerging NRM issues and knowledge gaps.

The Conservation Management Zones do not represent any change to existing administrative boundaries or governance structures, but aim to support the NRM and wider community to cooperatively manage environmental assets across boundaries, where they share common threats, ecological characteristics and stakeholders.

The project builds on the Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation of Australia (IBRA) which has been used to support planning of the National Reserve System, but consolidates the 85 mainland IBRA regions into 23 Conservation Management Zones, where IBRA regions share common characteristics.

Further information and profiles describing the zones can be accessed throught the Department of the Environments web site at - https://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/conservation-management-zones

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.
