The Native Vegetation of the Sydney Metropolitan Area (OEH, 2013), Version 2.0 - VIS_ID 3817 |
Alternative title(s) |
SydneyMetroArea_v2_0_2013_E_3817 |
Abstract |
This layer contains digital mapping of the native vegetation communities of the Sydney Metropolitan area. Vegetation communities have been derived from the analysis of 2200 floristic sites collated for the study area. Identified vegetation communities have been related to currently listed threatened ecological communities listed under the NSW TSC Act, 1995 and the Commonwealth EPBC Act, 1999. Native vegetation communities have been mapped using a combination of detailed image interpretation, relationships between sample sites and abiotic environmental variables. The derived digital data layer includes fields that describe the vegetation community, interpreted dominant species and understorey characteristics, interpretation confidence, disturbance type and severity, NSW vegetation formation and classes and related NSW Plant Community Types. These are described in detail in technical reports OEH (2013) The Native Vegetation of the Sydney Metropolitan Area. Volume 1: Technical Report. Version 2.0. Office of Environment and Heritage, Department of Premier and Cabinet, Sydney. VIS_ID 3817 These data (version 2.0) replaced the draft VIS dataset SydneyCMA_E_3817. Please note that version 2.0 has now been superseded by version 3.0 (VIS_ID 4489). |

Purpose |
The purpose of the data is to provide a single detailed coverage of native vegetation communities in the Sydney metropolitan area using standardised vegetation classification. This classification is designed to relate to the objectives of the OEH vegetation information systems and to assist users with the assessment of threatened ecological communities listed under the NSW TSC Act and Commonwealth EPBC Act. It is designed to be used in conjunction with other sources on native vegetation in the study area including existing literature, field investigations and TEC determinations. Precautions are required when using TEC data and caveats noted in Volume 1 technical report (OEH 2013) should be noted. |

Lineage |
Linework was derived from a number of sources.
resolution digital RGB orthographic aerial photography flown in 2005 & 2007 by Sinclair Knight Mertz (provided by SMCMA), using Definiens Developer 7 (refer to Vol 1 for more details) and manually corrected where necessary. A review of the woody-non woody line work currency has been completed using 2011 conurbanation imagery (AAM Hatch, 2011) based on user feedback of 2009 draft to highlight change. Woody-non woody boundary for urban parts of Pittwater LGA is based on a modified coverage of linework completed by Bangalay Ecological and Bushfire and Eastcoast Flora Survey (2011). Areas of Duffys Forest in Warringah LGA are modified from Smith and Smith (2005).
