## **Abstract** \n\nThis data and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are represented here as originally supplied.\n\n\n\nAbstract: Old growth forest mapping from aerial photograph interpretation of canopy species regeneration and senescent growth stages. Scale 1:25,000. Bounded by NSW Morriset Forestry District. Boundaries include the New England Highway and Hunter River in the North,the Blue mountains and Wollemi National Park in the west and the Illawarra highway in the south. VIS_ID 4122\n\n## **Purpose** \n\nTo map old growth forest in the Morriset area.\n\n## **Dataset History** \n\nThis data and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are represented here as originally supplied.\n\n\n\nDigitised on screen over 1:250,000 scale topographic maps. Attributes were verified in the field and by NSW state forests. Stereoscopic interpretation using a range of stereoscopes with a variety of magnifications (eg. Topcon and Abrams stereoscopes with x10 magnification). Attributes table & codes - Information contained in the attribute table is: regrowth-juvenile and sapling, regrowth-pole, Mature-early mature & mature, senescent-late mature and overmature, disturbance code. The project was only concerned with pyrophytic vegetation consequently, vegetation that was 30% regrowth. Eucalyptus-dominated vegetation with
