Data Quality

Lineage:   A revision of existing mapping for Wyong LGA. Extensive and detailed data collection and API has been undertaken in Olney, Ourimbah and Wyong State Forests, covering 14 680ha, and used to produce a new vegetation map broadly based on the NPWS (2000) classification scheme. In addition, previous mapping projects, including those for Jilliby State Conservation Area, have been incorporated with new API of unmapped areas to produce a single seamless vegetation layer for western Wyong, covering 50 native vegetation map units.
