Title

NSW Ecosystem Offset Trading Group Map

Abstract

Overview

The NSW Ecosystem Offset Trading Group Map is a regional scale map of candidate non-threatened Ecosystem Offset Trading Groups as defined under the NSW Biodiversity Offset Scheme.

The map covers all of NSW. Areas designated as ‘No Offset Trading Group’ are areas within NSW that are currently considered ineligible for Biodiversity Stewardship Agreements. The mapped Offset Trading Groups are generated by a direct translation of the NSW State Vegetation Type Map (SVTM vC1.1.M1.1) according to the Biodiversity Assessment Method Table 5.

This map is updated periodically in response to updates to the NSW State Vegetation Type Map or other relevant information.

Key Fields:

  • !OFFSET_TRA! – Offset Trading Group
  • !SUB_NAME_7! – Sub IBRA Bioregion
  • !OTGSUBIBRA! – A concatenation of the Offset Trading Group and the Sub IBRA Bioregion

Current Version 0.5

Limitations on Use

  • The map may be used as a guide to the occurrence and distribution of NSW Ecosystem Offset Trading Groups.
  • The map is derived from regional scale mapping of Plant Community Types and should not be used for local or property scale decisions.
  • The map does not include Offset Trading Groups for threatened ecological community (TEC) Ecosystem credit types.
