Title

The Natural Vegetation of North Western NSW VIS ID 825

Alternative title(s)

northwest_pn_VISmap_825

Abstract

This map has been published by PICKARD, J. and NORRIS, E.H. (1994) in the ecological journal of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Cunninghamia 3(3): 423-464. The pre-settlement vegetation of the north-western quarter of NSW is interpreted and mapped. The area represents 28% of the State. The map shows plant communities defined by structure and characteristic species and also mosaic communities. Stand alone dataset.

Lineage

Mapping procedure based on reinterpretation of 1:250,000 geological maps. Maps at 1:250,000 extensively field checked prior to compilation on a 1:1,000,000 base map and further field checking. Digitising completed 1998 using Environmental - Resource Mapping System (ERMS) GIS.

DQ Completeness Commission

Effective date

Explanation

The dataset is complete with reference to range and field verification. The map is unable to resolve or display different communities or variation finer than 3km.

DQ Conceptual Consistency

Explanation

The GIS package ERMS was used to do a topological consistency check to ensure all polygons are closed, nodes are formed at intersection of lines, all polygons are labelled once and there are no duplications.

DQ Topological Consistency

Explanation

Checked for missing attributes Errors corrected using ERMS prior to conversion to ArcView shapefile using the wpo2shp.exe program. Boundary coding errors and polygons not digitised were rectified in May 2000 as part of NVIS Project by NPWS GIS.

DQ Absolute External Positional Accuracy

Explanation

Precision: 2km to 5km. Determination: Deductive estimate. Comparison with 1:100,000 layer data indicated good correlation but with errors of the order indicated above in terms of position.

DQ Non Quantitative Attribute Correctness

Explanation

The Label field indicates the vegetation classifications included in the mapping. These have been interpreted from ground truthing and described by botanists and professionals from the Royal Botanic Gardens.
