Title

NSW Council Roadside Reserves Conservation Values

Abstract

Local Government NSW (LGNSW), as part of the Council Roadside Reserves (CRR) Project funded by the NSW Environmental Trust, facilitated the assessment of the conservation value of roadside reserves in a number of NSW Local Government Areas (LGAs) using a standard Rapid Assessment Method (RAM). This line spatial dataset contains the results of the assessments completed by 18 LGAs.

Conservation value is described as either:

  • High Conservation Value (HCV),
  • Medium Conservation Value (MCV), or
  • Low Conservation Value (LCV).

LGNSW facilitated the assessment of roadside reserves in a number of NSW Local Government Areas (LGAs) using a standard Rapid Assessment Method (RAM). The LGAs who undertook the assessment, and are included in the spatial data set, are:

  • Bellingen Shire Council
  • Blacktown City Council
  • Edward River Council
  • Glen Innes Severn Shire Council
  • Griffith City Council
  • Lockhart Shire Council
  • Moree Plains Shire Council
  • Muswellbrook Shire Council
  • Oberon Council
  • Parkes Shire Council
  • Penrith City Council
  • Port Stephens Council
  • Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council
  • Snowy Valleys Council
  • Temora Shire Council
  • The Hills Shire Council
  • Upper Hunter Shire Council
  • Wagga Wagga City Council

This spatial dataset contains the results of the assessments completed by 18 LGAs. This assessment describes conservation value as either High Conservation Value (HCV), Medium Conservation Value (MCV) or Low Conservation Value (LCV).

The RAM utilised for the assessment was prepared by NSW Local Land Services (LLS), the Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH) and LGNSW and is available at https://www.lgnsw.org.au/files/imce-uploads/581/Final%20RAM_Feb%202018.pdf.

Lineage

The NSW Council Roadside Reserves Conservation Values data set is a compilation of a number of data sets provided by the 18 LGAs included in the assessment. Data provided prior to compilation included point data sets, line data sets and polygon data sets.

After assessing the data provided it was decided that a single line data set would be created based on the information provided. For those LGAs who provided data as a line data set (Bellingen Shire Council, Blacktown City Council, Edward River Council, Griffith City Council, Moree Plains Shire Council, Parkes Shire Council, Penrith City Council, Snowy Valleys Council and The Hills Shire Council) the data provided was accepted without modification.

For those LGAs who provided data as a polygon data set (Glen Innes Severn Shire Council, Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council and Temora Shire Council) the polygon layers depicting conservation value were used to clip a road data set for the LGA. Small road slivers that were not assessed were then removed manually from the layer, and conservation value was assigned manually based on the original polygon data classification.

For those LGAs who provided data as a point data set (Lockhart Shire Council, Muswellbrook Shire Council, Oberon Council, Port Stephens Council, Upper Hunter Shire Council and Wagga Wagga City Council) the point locations were used to split the road data sets for each LGA at the start and end point for each roadside reserve assessment. A buffer of 30 m was applied to each assessment point due to potential inaccuracies in the GPS location of the original point data. Conservation value was then assigned manually based on the original point data classification.
