NSW Sheep-Wheat Belt Box-Gum Woodland Biodiversity Survey Sites 2004-2007 . VIS_ID 4091

This spatial layer contains summary flora and fauna biodiversity survey data derived from project specific surveys conducted for the Biodiversity Conservation in the Sheep Wheat Belt of NSW Project between November 2004 and February 2007. Included in the data are Endangered Ecological Communities (EECs) and threatened flora and fauna species. The primary focus of this component of the project was to survey "off reserve" distribution of Box-Gum Woodland (White Box - Yellow Box - Blakely's Red Gum) EEC within the Murray, Murrumbidgee, Lachlan, Central West, Hunter-Central Rivers, Namoi and Border Rivers-Gwydir Catchment Management Authority areas. The project area extended from the Victorian to Queensland borders and across the Western Slopes and western parts of the Tablelands of NSW. Consistent with project objectives the majority (502) of the 722 survey sites were in remnant patches of Box-Gum Woodland. The remaining sites were in other vegetation types, mostly remnant patches identified as Inland Grey Box Woodland EEC and Box-Gum Woodland ecotone. Several sites were in patches identified as Fuzzy Box Woodland EEC and McKies Stringybark / Blackbutt Open Forest EEC. All but around 30 of the 722 sites were located on private land and public land outside formal state conservation reserves. Attributes listed show distribution; survey method; date; tenure; estimated patch area; vegetation community type, strata dominant species; habitat structure; plant and bird species richness and threatened species number; qualitative condition and conservation value; biophysical and administrative boundaries. To meet requirements for landholder privacy site attributes are assigned to 5km x 5km (2500ha) polygons instead of points. Polygons containing survey sites are only displayed. Survey site point location coordinates are shown in the attributes table where the written consent of landholders / land managers has been received. Attributes values are derived from a separate accompanying spreadsheet database extracted from a larger relational survey database. NOTE: There are multiple records for some polygons (overlaps). This is not an error. VIS_ID 4091

本空间图层（spatial layer）包含汇总的动植物生物多样性调查数据，其源自2004年11月至2007年2月期间为新南威尔士州绵羊小麦带生物多样性保护项目（Biodiversity Conservation in the Sheep Wheat Belt of NSW Project）开展的专项调查。
本数据集涵盖濒危生态群落（Endangered Ecological Communities，以下简称EEC）及受威胁动植物物种相关信息。
本项目该组成部分的核心目标为调查墨累、马兰比吉、拉克兰、中西部、亨特-中央河流域、纳莫伊以及边界河流-吉德尔流域管理局（Catchment Management Authority）辖区内，盒-胶林（Box-Gum Woodland，含白盒桉（White Box）-黄盒桉（Yellow Box）-布莱克利红胶木（Blakely's Red Gum））EEC的"保护区外"分布情况。项目范围覆盖维多利亚州至昆士兰州边界，涵盖新南威尔士州西部斜坡及台地西部区域。
契合项目目标，722个调查样地中的多数（502个）位于盒-胶林残余斑块中；剩余样地分布于其他植被类型，其中多为被归类为内陆灰盒林濒危生态群落（Inland Grey Box Woodland EEC）及盒-胶林交错带的残余斑块，另有部分样地分布于绒毛盒林濒危生态群落（Fuzzy Box Woodland EEC）与麦基多罗桉/黑桉疏林濒危生态群落（McKies Stringybark / Blackbutt Open Forest EEC）的斑块内。
722个样地中仅约30个位于正式国家保护保护区内，其余均分布于私有土地及公共土地之上。所列属性包括：分布信息、调查方法、调查日期、土地权属、斑块估算面积、植被群落类型、层片优势种、生境结构、动植物与鸟类物种丰富度及受威胁物种数量、定性生境状况与保护价值、生物物理及行政边界。
为保护土地所有者隐私，调查样地属性被关联至5km×5km（2500公顷）多边形区域，而非单点坐标；仅展示包含调查样地的多边形区域。若已获得土地所有者/土地管理者的书面同意，则调查样地的点位坐标将在属性表中予以标注。属性值源自从大型关联式调查数据库（relational survey database）中提取的配套独立电子表格数据库。
注意：部分多边形存在多条记录（重叠情况），此并非数据错误。VIS_ID 4091
