Ecological assets of the Gwydir wetlands and floodplain 2008 VIS_ID 3923

## **Abstract** \n\nThis dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.\n\n\n\nThe 2008 map of the vegetation communites of the Gwydir wetlands and floodplain (Bowen and Simpson 2009) was annotated for flooding frequency history, ecological importance and hydro-ecological functional group to determine the spatial distribution of ecological assets to inform the Valley Wide Floodplain Management Plan for the Gwydir.\n\n\n\nVIS_ID_3923\n\n## **Dataset History** \n\nLinework derived from 2005 Gwydir vegetation map and updated using digital aerial photography, digitised on screen using ArcGIS 9.2. See Bowen and Simpson 2009.\n\n\n\nData Quality Information:\n\nHierarchy level \tDataset: Information applies to the dataset\n\nTitle \tCompleteness Commission\n\nDate \t2001-01-01\n\nDate type \tRevision: Date identifies when the resource was examined or re-examined and improved or amended\n\nExplanation \tFinal\n\nTitle \tCompleteness Ommission\n\nDate \t2001-01-01\n\nDate type \tRevision: Date identifies when the resource was examined or re-examined and improved or amended\n\nExplanation \tFinal\n\nTitle \tConceptual Consistency\n\nDate \t0001-01-01\n\nDate type \tRevision: Date identifies when the resource was examined or re-examined and improved or amended\n\nTitle \tTopological Consistency\n\nDate \t0001-01-01\n\nDate type \tRevision: Date identifies when the resource was examined or re-examined and improved or amended\n\nTitle \tAbsolute External Positional Accuracy\n\nDate \t0001-01-01\n\nExplanation \tSee Bowen and Simpson 2010.\n\nTitle \tNon Quantitative Attribute Accuracy\n\nDate \t0001-01-01\n\nDate type \tRevision: Date identifies when the resource was examined or re-examined and improved or amended\n\nExplanation \tField checking conducted.
