Basic Spatial Units (BSU) at 250 m resolution for national ecosystem accounts

This data collection comprises spatial data for all accounts. It includes the 250 m resolution BSU in GDA94 / Australian Albers (EPSG:3577) projection, the coverage fraction of each pixel of the Ecosystem Accounting Area (EAA), and a “terrestrial” mask derived from the national land use data. A BSU is a geometric construct that represents the minimum unit of spatial aggregation for accounting. It was devised in agreement with ABS to create national ecosystem accounts. \nSee methods report in the Related Links for more detail on the BSU. \nLineage: Refer to methods (see Related Links):\nLiu N, Newnham G, Richards AE, Pascoe S, Tetreault Campbell S and Schmidt RK (2024) Methods for developing the 250 m resolution Basic Spatial Units (BSU) for national ecosystem accounts.
