Nambucca Local Government Area Vegetation 2013. VIS_ID 4473

This dataset represents fine-scale floristic vegetation mapping within eastern freehold lands of the Nambucca Local Government Area (LGA) and targeted mapping of Threatened Ecological Communities (TEC) outside public lands throughout the LGA. Vegetation has been classified into Plant community types (PCT), classes and formations, with the composition of respective vegetation species identified. Mapping was conducted by vegetation mapping ‘experts’ (NSW Office of Environment and Heritage) between 2013 and 2015, and was based on 3-D PLANAR modelling, aerial photography interpretation and field floristic assessment. Additionally, basic disturbance information is captured along with a selection of prominent weeds where identified by interpreters.\r\nVegetation mapping and a field verification program were conducted, in two stages, for parts of the Nambucca Shire Council Local Government Area (Nambucca LGA) using high-resolution digital aerial imagery. The aim of the project was to map the vegetation and plant community types in the coastal and lowland areas of the Nambucca LGA outside National Park and State Forest Estate in order to: • Define the extent of vegetation on the valley floors, to provide a refined and accurate layer of woody and non-woody vegetation cover for private land and coastal Crown Land within the Nambucca LGA. • Delineate the potential occurrence of Threatened Ecological Communities (TECs) on freehold lands and coastal Crown Land in the Nambucca LGA (Stage 1). • Map all coastal and lowland vegetation communities on freehold land and coastal Crown Land (Stage 2). • Identify areas of the Stage 2 mapped vegetation to be used in habitat modelling for the Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus). The vegetation map is suitable for use at a scale of 1:5000 and will support environmental planning and assessment at the level of local government areas and regions. The map is indicative of the vegetation and threatened ecological communities occurring within an individual property or development land area. However, it is recommended that decision making be based on further flora surveys and expert-driven site assessment to meet the requirements of the TSC Act and other planning instruments on a case-by-case basis.\r\n\r\nVIS_ID 4473

本数据集涵盖南布卡地方政府区域（LGA）东部永久业权土地内的精细尺度植物区系植被制图，以及整个LGA范围内公共土地外濒危生态群落（TEC）的针对性制图。植被被划分为植物群落类型（PCT）、类群及群系，并明确了各植被类型的物种组成。制图工作由植被制图“专家”（新南威尔士州环境与遗产办公室，NSW Office of Environment and Heritage）于2013-2015年开展，基于三维平面建模（3-D PLANAR modelling）、航空影像解译及实地植物区系评估。此外，数据集还记录了基本干扰信息，以及解译人员识别出的主要杂草种类。
针对南布卡郡议会地方政府区域（Nambucca LGA）部分区域，利用高分辨率数字航空影像分两阶段开展植被制图与实地验证项目。项目目标包括：• 确定河谷地带植被范围，为Nambucca LGA内私有土地及沿海王室土地（Crown Land）提供精细准确的木本与非木本植被覆盖图层；• 划定Nambucca LGA内永久业权土地及沿海王室土地上濒危生态群落（TEC）的潜在分布范围（第一阶段）；• 绘制永久业权土地及沿海王室土地上所有沿海与低地植被群落（第二阶段）；• 识别第二阶段制图植被中用于考拉（Phascolarctos cinereus）栖息地建模的区域。该植被图适用于1:5000比例尺，可支持地方政府区域及区域层面的环境规划与评估。此图指示了单个地块或开发用地内的植被及濒危生态群落分布情况，但建议决策应基于进一步的植物调查及专家主导的现场评估，以个案方式满足《濒危物种保护法》（TSC Act）及其他规划工具的要求。
