Non Threatened flora data derived from the Natural Values Atlas consisting primarily of point locations (Eastings and Northings) and associated attributes for non threatened flora in Tasmania. The original NVA data set also maintains species taxonomy and provides access to additional attribute information. including species values for conservation significance as well as project specific data.

Threatened fauna data derived from the Natural Values Atlas consisting primarily of point locations (Eastings and Northings) and associated attributes for threatened fauna in Tasmania. The original NVA data set also contains Habitat mapping for a limited number of high priority fauna species. The NVA maintains species taxonomy and provides access to management documents such as listing statements and recovery plans. Additional attribute information is also stored within the NVA, including species values for conservation significance as well as project specific data.

Map of 35 NSW-listed threatened ecological communities (TECs) within Greater Sydney. The map is derived from a number of best available mapping products and expert input. While the distribution of a number of TECs extends beyond Greater Sydney, their distribution beyond the study area is not represented in this map, with two exceptions: the Blue Mountains Basalt Forest and Pittwater and Wagstaffe Spotted Gum Forest TECs. The methodology and scale of best available sources used to derive the map vary, with concomitant variation in currency, coverage, spatial precision and attribution accuracy. There are known gaps in coverage due to the lack of mapping sources in some locations within the study area (including, but not limited to the Grose Valley near Wollangambe, Ebenezer, Cattai, west of Mulgoa and west of Thirlmere). Limitations of this map include: areas not identified as TEC may be TEC, areas identified as TEC may not be TEC, and areas identified as a TEC may be a different TEC. Accordingly, property-scale assessments should inform activities, plans and proposals at the property scale. Mapping is updated frequently via expert input. The map data informs the Biodiversity Values Map, Native Vegetation Regulatory Map, Rural Fire Service 10/50 tool and High Environmental Values Greater Sydney map. For more information about the map, refer to the report 'Map of threatened ecological communities in Greater Sydney'.

__Threatened Species of National Environmental Significance__ This dataset contains information about species of national environmental significance as listed in the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). Data provided includes: - species names and threatened status - indicative occurrence within each state, territory and marine area - links to further information in the [Species Profile and Threats Database](http://www.environment.gov.au/cgi-bin/sprat/public/sprat.pl) (SPRAT). The dataset is updated as the lists of species on schedules of the EPBC Act are amended. There is one row entry for each listed species. Links to other species information sourced from SPRAT can be made using the field containing the listed taxon identification number (ListedId). A description of the fields and methods used to create the data can be found in the explanatory notes resource.

This dataset records the significance of potential fauna habitat within the coastal strip of the Northern and Southern National Resource Management (NRM) Regions of Tasmania. It has been developed as a management tool and is a summary layer derived from the PotentialFuanaHabitat layer. The 'Significance' of the mapped polygons reflects the 'Significance' of the species with the highest threat status for which the polygon represents potential habitat. Only vegetation community polygons that represent threatened fauna habitat are included therefore the layer is not continuous. This dataset is part of the NRM Coastal Values Project. The Project maps vegetation, fauna habitat and geomorphology from High Water mark to 100 metres inland for part of the coastline of the Southern and Northern NRM Regions of Tasmania. The purpose of the coastal values mapping is to provide an easily accessible database on vegetation and geomorphology to support better strategic planning, land use planning and management on the coast.
