Abstract

This record is now superseded. The current record can be found here: https://datasets.seed.nsw.gov.au/dataset/lake-macquarie-lga-vegetation-community-map-2022-vis_id-5117

Lake Macquarie City Council Working Composite Vegetation Community Map undertaken by Stephen Bell and Colin Driscoll

from 2008 - 2013. A staged approach has been adopted by Council, to allow for funding as it becomes available. Stage 1 of the project focused on the Wyee to Cooranbong portion of the LGA, while Stage 2 examined the Glendale–Bolton Point–Seahampton area. Stage 5 focused on the north-eastern area of the City, extending north from Belmont in the south, and adjoining the Stage 2 area near Glendale. Stages 4 and 6 have not yet commenced. In total, approximately 46,270 ha have been included within Stages 1-3 and 5. Previous classification and mapping studies have also been amalgamated to form the basis of a city-wide vegetation map, which will be progressively amended and improved as further funding becomes available. Both mapping projects adopt the LHCCREMS 2000 vegetation classification as their structural framework, but with updated sub-community and new community allocations informed through preliminary regional multivariate data analysis undertaken for unrelated projects elsewhere in the region.

Lineage

Lineage Linework entered from LHCCREMS 2003 various consultants’ studies and Voroini areas applied rapid data points and some GPS groundtruthing of vegetation boundaries.

There are six accuracy classes (1) is the most accurate and (6) is the least accurate

  1. GPS Ground-truth data

  2. Previous Study with amendments

  3. Previous Study with no amendments

  4. LMCCREMS modelled data

  5. API only

  6. Unknown

Linework/polygons for accuracy class (1) may have been generated using Voronoi areas from the rapid data points so the attribution is most accurate at the actual rapid assessment data point.

Positional accuracy

Varies – Internal positional accuracy ranging from 10 – 100m depending on accuracy class above. Extent mapping was undertaken relative to 2010 orthorectified air photography

and we estimate the external positional accuracy to be less than 10m.

Attribute accuracy

Varies – depending on accuracy class above.

Logical consistency

Object topology not checked, may have some gaps/overlaps within the data. All records are attributed with all known attributes at this time.

Completeness

Stages 1, 2 and 3 complete. Stage 5 is underway.

This method is a composite of rapid data points in the field, vegetation mapping in various reports and LHCCREMS

  1. The map has been clipped with the 2011 LMCC Native Vegetation extent. The vegetation community classification system used is LHCCREMS (NPWS) 2000 with subgroups and additional communities where no equivalent exists. The internal community delineation accuracy varies according to the source data at each point. The map has been produced with the intention of improving its accuracy over time. The accuracy of the vegetation extent is ,10m

The LM mapping project has been a staged one as funding becomes available, hence the various Stage numbers. Basically, it involves progressively preparing detailed, local-scale mapping for priority areas, and then pasting this into the LHCCREMS2003 base layer. Other local-scale mapping Steve Bell did for OEH (such as Sugarloaf SCA, Watagans NP etc) has also been included. As a result there will be edge-matching discrepancies around the perimeter of the detailed areas where they meet LHCCREMS2003. Completed to date are Stage 1, Stage 2 (plus an addition to S2), Stage 3 and Stage 5 (S5 submitted to Council in December 2012), plus the OEH areas. Stage 4 (western LMLGA) has not been done as the priority order was changed by Council. After each stage, the report you mentioned is updated, with the latest (Stage 5) in draft and still with Council for review.
