Abstract

A survey by Barrer (1997) of remnant native vegetation in the south-east section of Yarrowlumla Shire identified areas of high or potentially high nature conservation significance. The largest and most valuable of these remnants was the bushlands of the Mt. Foxlow - Harrisons Peak area, with two smaller but connected areas, the Queanbeyan River corridor and Captains Flat bushlands also identified as of high conservation significance. These three areas were identified as being vulnerable to a range of existing and proposed activities, likely to lead to vegetation and biodiversity loss or decline. Funds were applied for to undertake a three-year assessment of the significance of these bushlands and to gather ecological information for management purposes. VIS_ID 4210

Purpose

1. To assess the ecological qualities and values of the study area in detail sufficient to identify most or all community-, habitat- and species-specific management needs and constraints. 2. To work with Crown Lands, interested landholders (freehold and leasehold) within the study area, Yarrowlumla Shire Council, and other interested parties to identify and implement actions to ensure the continued survival of the study area’s natural ecological values.

Lineage

Mapping was carried out by interpretation of stereo pairs of colour aerial photographs, at a scale of 1:25,000. Preliminary boundaries between vegetation associations were drawn on the photos using differences in colour, texture and tree crown size, and ecological factors such as aspect, slope and elevation. Ground truthing was carried out to define the associations and verify boundaries. Classification and boundaries were revised where necessary following ground truthing. The boundaries were transferred from the aerial photos to the 1:25,000 scale topographic maps covering the study area, Captains Flat and Hoskinstown, and were then digitised into MapInfo Pro v.4 so that the information would be available digitally and easily reproduced.
