Vegetation Mapping - Cobar Shire. VIS_ID 3332

Satellite imagery and field checking were used to map the vegetation of the Cobar Shire in central-west NSW. The vegetation communities have been grouped using broad canopy species associations. These associations have no other mapping purpose. Each vegetation community and other map unit used in the mapping project is described, with main structural form(s) of the community based on Specht (1970). A broad floristic description based on some limited point source sampling, field verification of the M305, personal observation by the author with input from Department of Land and Water Conservation, Far West Region field and technical staff. Analysis from the GIS data set listing main location and any 1:100,000 map sheet that the community may be located within. Also the bioregional statistics for the community are listed in a table. A broad assessment of the general condition or health of the community is based on the author’s personal judgement with input from DLWC, Far West Region field and technical staff. A broad description of the main soil types for the community is based on GIS analysis using landsystem mapping. VIS_ID 3332

本数据集采用卫星影像与野外核查手段，对新南威尔士州中西部的科巴郡（Cobar Shire）植被开展制图工作。
研究依据宽泛的冠层物种关联对植被群系进行归类，此类关联仅服务于本次制图任务，无其他制图用途。
本次制图项目涉及的各植被群系与其他制图单元均有详细描述，群系的主要结构型依据斯佩克特（Specht, 1970）的分类标准确定。
本研究对植被区系的宽泛描述，基于有限的点源采样、M305的野外核查结果、作者的个人观测，同时吸纳了土地与水保护部（Department of Land and Water Conservation，DLWC）远西区野外与技术人员的专业意见。
基于地理信息系统（Geographic Information System, GIS）数据集开展的分析，梳理了各植被群系的主要分布区域，以及其可能分布的任意1:10万比例尺地形图幅。
各植被群系的生物区系统计数据亦以表格形式列出。
对植被群系整体状况或健康水平的宽泛评估，基于作者的个人判断，并结合了土地与水保护部远西区野外与技术人员的专业意见。
各植被群系主要土壤类型的宽泛描述，基于利用土地系统制图开展的地理信息系统分析结果。
