Abstract

This polygon shapefile is a 1:25,000 vegetation mapping dataset combining 1999 CRAFTI and Forest Ecosystem mapping. Project undertaken by Kendall and Kendall Ecological Consultants and GECO Environmental for Kempsey Shire Council. The dataset covers the entire Macleay Coastal subcatchment (as per DLWC Stressed Rivers) and all areas south of this within the Kempsey LGA but east of the Pacific Highway. (VIS_ID 243)

Purpose

The purpose of this exercise was to:;;1. Allow the display of all vegetation data as a single layer with clearly identified labels and data source.;;2. Allow the interrogation of the single dataset to derive Candidate EECs for the study area by using the FE codes and labels, CRAFTI codes and labels, NPWS_Coast Veg codes and labels, and SF Lookup codes and labels.

Lineage

The integration of existing datasets with the new Forest Ecosystem mapping was undertaken using the GIS editing capabilities of ArcView 3.2a. The following steps were undertaken;; ; 1. The existing CRAFTI dataset was reprojected to MGA94, clipped to the study area, and overlaid onto the August 2003 1:25,000 orthorectified aerial photographs.; ; 2. The new Forest Ecosystem mapping was added to the GIS and areas of redundancy in the CRAFTI layer were deleted. Where the new mapping resulted in only a part of the existing CRAFTI mapping being redundant, the boundary of the CRAFTI data was adjusted. The two datasets were then joined and cleaned resulting in a single vegetation dataset for the Study Area.; ; 3. Where an existing CRAFTI code for a vegetation type was directly transferable to the Forest Ecosystem classification, then the CRAFTI polygon was relabeled with the Forest Ecosystem code and label.; ; 4. Where an existing CRAFTI code was not directly transferable to the Forest Ecosystem classification, the CRAFTI code and Description label was retained.; ; 5. The full vegetation layer was then labeled with either the FE label or the CRAFTI label. The Label field of the vegetation dataset identifies all CRAFTI labels through the use of the suffix (c).; ; The use of this process has allowed the effective integration of the older CRAFTI dataset with the new Forest Ecosystem mapping undertaken during this project. ; ; The purpose of this exercise was to:; ; 1. Allow the display of all vegetation data as a single layer with clearly identified labels and data source.; ; 2. Allow the interrogation of the single dataset to derive Candidate EECs for the study area by using the FE codes and labels, CRAFTI codes and labels, NPWS_Coast Veg codes and labels, and SF Lookup codes and labels.
