NSW Bionet Threatened Biodiversity Profile Data Collection

Alternative title(s)

Threatened Species Profile Dataset

Abstract

The Threatened Biodiversity Profile Data Collection (TE) is maintained in the NSW BioNet-Atlas database http://www.bionet.nsw.gov.au/, and includes profiles for threatened species, population and ecological communities that occur in NSW.

The profiles contain detailed descriptions, photographs and information related to the distribution, habitat, ecology, threats and management priorities of each threatened entity.

Specifically, Threatened Biodiversity Profiles are maintained for Critically Endangered, Endangered and Vulnerable species, Endangered Populations and Critically Endangered, Endangered and Vulnerable Ecological Communities and Key Threatening Processes that are listed in the Schedules of the NSW Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (TSC Act). Information on threatened entities that are listed on the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) which occur in NSW is also included in the database.

ACCESS: The Threatened Biodiversity Data Collection can been accessed through the OEH Threatened Species website (http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/threatenedspecies/) or BioNet Threatened Biodiversity Web Service (an open API) https://data.bionet.nsw.gov.au/

The Threatened Entity Profile Data Collection contains essential information used for the assessment of likely impacts of development proposals on threatened entities and in determining the amount of habitat that can be lost and how much must be offset to achieve an “Improve or Maintain” outcome for the affected species, populations or ecological communities.

Spatial Distribution information is maintained for each threatened entity within the Bionet-Atlas application. This has three main purposes. Firstly, it provides basic distribution map as displayed on the Threatened Species website. Secondly, this distribution information is used as the basis of validating new sighting records that are entered into the BioNet-Atlas application. Finally, the distribution recorded in BioNet is used for predicting the likely presence of threatened species at site location.

Purpose

Biodiversity Assessment Method. The Threatened Entity Profiles were originally developed within OEH to compile information for threatened entities listed under the TSC Act. This data collection supports Property Vegetation Planning (PVP), BioBanking Assessment Methodology (BBAM), Framework for Biodiversity Assessment (FBA), and BioCertification assessment methodologies that were developed to assist in implementing the TSC Act and Native Vegetation Act 2003 (NV Act) legislation. it is proposed that the Threatened Entity Profiles will also be used to support the new Biodiversity Assessment Method proposed under the NSW Biodiversity Conservation Bill.
