Title	Native Woody Vegetation Mapping of the NSW Wheat-belt VIS_ID 1617
Alternative title(s)	forbes98_wheatbelt_VISmap_1617
Abstract	Previously mapped and described remnant native woody vegetation of the wheat-belt is updated using Landsat TM false colour composite (bands 2,4,5,-green, near infra red, mid infra red) 1:250 000 Landsat images from a various dates, paths and rows to delineate areas where clearing of native vegetation has occurred. The study area extends from the Western Division boundary to the 300m contour west of the Great Dividing Range and between Latitudes 29� 00' S and 34� 00' S. Stand alone dataset. (VIS_ID 1617; ANZNS0208000148)

Lineage	Interpretation of various scales (1:50,000,1:80,000,1:85,000) of aerial photography used to define boundaries of native woody vegetation. Boundaries then transferred to 1:100 000 scale maps and digitised using Environmental Resource Mapping System E-RMS. Landsat 1:250,000 satellite images used to define the boundaries of areas cleared of native woody vegetation which were transferred to then digitised from 1:250,000 maps using E-RMS and ArcInfo.Precision: Digital data accurate to 100m (deductive estimate). Consistent with cultural (roads) and physical (rivers and dams) attributes at the 1:100 000 map scale. The Title field describes the vegetation category. Very high degree of accuracy at the 1:250 000 scale. Based on extensive ground truthing at the 1:100 000 scale, objective classification using PATN on 1200 sites and Air photo interpretation. The dataset complete with reference to range and field verification. Native vegetation defined as Greater than 5 percent crown cover. Where cover less than 5 percent, remnants were visited in the field before mapping. Treeless remnants only mapped where observed in the field. Remnants less than 10Ha were not mapped. Limited ground truthing possible as much of the vegetation has been cleared, remnants correlated with existing digital data.
