Title

Vegetation within Lachlan Valley State Conservation Area and Lachlan Valley Regional Park. VIS_ID 3981

Alternative title(s)

LachlanValley_Hunthawang_E_3981

Abstract

The composition and extent of the present vegetation within Lachlan Valley State Conservation Area (Hunthawang) and Lachlan Valley Regional Park (Hillston) is described and mapped. A total of 22 226.8 hectares were mapped, including 2 224.7 hectares of cleared areas. Forty-five (45) quadrat-based sites were sampled for full floristics, with an additional 25 condition-assessed sites, intensive field traverses, opportunistic sampling and aerial photograph interpretation. Eight vegetation communities are described and 269 taxa of vascular plants recorded from 62 families, including one listed threatened species and a further six which are considered to be regionally significant.

Lineage

Colour aerial photographs at approx.1:50,000 formed the basis of the vegetation map polygons, supplemented by 3D ADS-40 imagery (2008), orthophoto, SPOT satellite and other GIS layers. The images were interpreted stereoscopically for patterns of vegetation and geomorphology, and then matched to the vegetation site data via direct visual assignment of floristic group attributes on the remote imagery. A provisional vegetation map was drafted and the study area traversed with particular sites investigated to confirm polygon labels and resolve vegetation boundaries. The final vegetation polygons were transferred and visually corrected (orthorectified) to the SPOT satellite images and topographic maps, then coded and digitised using ArcGIS. See Porteners 2012.
