Title

Native Vegetation Management Benefits - Improve Benefits

Abstract

Identifies areas across NSW where the greatest benefit to NSW plant biodiversity is achieved by improving the condition of extant native vegetation.

This layer is one of four approaches to vegetation management, comprising:

  • Manage benefits highlights remaining examples of highly cleared vegetation types
  • Improve benefits highlights where remaining examples of highly cleared vegetation types can be improved in condition
  • Restore benefits highlights where to restore highly cleared vegetation types in cleared landscapes
  • Landscape benefits highlights areas that contribute to the connectivity between extant native vegetation. Includes existing vegetation and locations to restore lost linkages

Version 1.0 (2012)

produced for the Draft NSW Biodiversity Strategy (see this report). Data is relevant to 2012

Further updates

Improve benefits are not routinely provided as a time series. For latter versions see NVMB Series 2

More information

For more detail see NSW Native Vegetation Management Benefits Analyses Technical report (2012), this technical report (2020), and this scientific paper on the method (2014). Climate-informed versions of the manage benefits and restore benefits (v.1) can be found here.

Lineage

The spatial outputs from this project are based on 6.25 Ha (250m by 250m) gridcells and can be reliably mapped to a cartographic scale of 1:100,000; ; Advice on how to manage error that is discernable at higher resolutions is provided in the tech. report that states:; ; "It is recognised that NSW Government agencies, catchment management authorities and others may hold additional data and mapping, in many cases developed with or by OEH, which is more spatially precise. Having a broader, big-picture perspective, the State-scale NVM benefits complement this more localised and detailed data. Where State-scale NVM Benefits and catchment-scale priorities overlap, users are encouraged to adopt these areas as highest priority for investment. The more precise data may be also be used to better match management actions to locations, while maintaining a focus on the big-picture."; ; For advice on how to use the data refer to:; ; NSW Office of Environment and Heritage. 2012.
