Title

Salinity Hazard for Catchment Action Plan (CAP) Updates: Lachlan CMA Area - August 2012

Alternative title(s)

Salinity Hazard for Lachlan CMA CAP Update

Abstract

The thirteen NSW Catchment Management Authorities (CMAs) are required to update their Catchment Action Plans (CAPs) in a process to be completed by early 2013. The CAPs are required to be "Whole of Government" in order to provide greater coherence between policies and plans as they develop strategic direction at regional levels. CAPs must align with or take into account common elements of agency activity, and require a high level of co-ordination. ; A cross agency team was employed in December 2011 to produce a salinity tool for CAP updates, as a Salinity Hazard for CAP Updates project. This project has been funded by Catchment Action NSW.; The primary output of the Salinity Hazard for CAP Updates project is a broad scale salinity hazard spatial coverage and report for each CMA. The product referred to in this metadata statement is produced for the Lachlan Catchment Management Authority (LCMA) for use in upgrading its Catchment Action Plan (CAP). The Lachlan CAP is a cabinet approved document which outlines the investment priorities and delivery targets for natural resource management across the LCMA area. The LCMA is currently reviewing and upgrading the CAP which was developed in 2004-05.

Purpose

This data package describes the hazard posed by salinity for different parts of the Lachlan Catchment Management Authority (LCMA) catchments. The Salinity Hazard for Catchment Action Plan (CAP) Update map is a specific product for CAP planning. It is appropriate at the catchment scale. More detailed investigations are required for sub-regional works. The data package was generated for the LCMA to assist with the update of its CAP.

Lineage

The Salinity Hazard for Catchment Action Plan (CAP) Update spatial product used the following base data for delineation of map units: Published 1:1 million and 1:250 000 scale geological mapping data (polygon) and Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for Lachlan CMA and derivative products taken from the 25 metre DEM. These datasets were combined and rationalised to create broad scale salinity hazard ratings for the entire Lachlan CMA area.

DQ Completeness Commission

Effective date

Explanation

Spatial data capture is complete for presentation and useage at 1:250 000 only.

DQ Topological Consistency

Effective date

2012-01-08

Explanation

All polygons in the coverage are topologically correct and all polygons have been attributed. Data has been visually checked at applicable scales.

DQ Absolute External Positional Accuracy

Effective date

2012-01-08

Explanation

The accuracy of the coverage varies across the mapping area as map polygon boundaries were derived from different sources. Boundaries derived from published and draft 1:250 000 scale mapping are generally accurate to 250 m.

DQ Non Quantitative Attribute Correctness

Effective date

2012-01-08

Explanation

All polygons are labelled with a salinity hazard rating tag. Attributes were checked as part of routine GIS capture quality assurance procedures, including a visual check of polygon tags against field data. Regular meetings were held to discuss and review methods, processes and consistency in interpretation and documentation.
