Nymboida National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Andrew Benwell in 2000 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Nymboida National Park is located 50km west of Grafton. The veg classification identified 14 plant communities of which 11 were mapped. The communities were numerically derived and based on full floristic plot data. VIS_ID4752

Avondale State Conservation Area vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2014 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Avondale State Conservation Area is located approximately 36 km north east of Armidale and is accessed via the Rockvale Road. The reserve occurs on eastern side of the central New England Tablelands. The vegetation of Avondale State Conservation Area is described and mapped (scale1:10 000) based on ADS40 Imagery (2012). Six floristic communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association) and seven Plant Community Types (VIS) are mapped. These six floristic communities and seven PCTs were mapped based on ground truthing, ADS40 interpretation and landform. Two Threatened Ecological Communities (TECs) were recognised and mapped also.

Kings Plain National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2000 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Kings Plain National Park approximately 50 km north west of Glen Innes. The full extent of the reserve is within the Inverell Shire, the County of Arrawatta and the Parish of Kings Plains. The vegetation of Kings Plains National Park is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Seven communities are defined based on PATN analysis and one specialised community is as circumscribed by previous surveys. Eight communities are mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and altitude. Most communities are of a Woodland structure, however Forests exist along with Shrublands. The distribution of communities is related to past disturbances, soil depth, soil type, physiography, aspect, slope, altitude, and protection from the south west. Many of the communities show considerable variation and intergrade along common boundaries. A number of specialised communities are thought to be endangered. VIS_ID 4741

Boonoo Boonoo National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 1999 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region along with Bald Rock National Park. The mapping was revised in 2006. Boonoo Boonoo National Park is located approximately 30 km north east of Tenterfield. The vegetation of Boonoo Boonoo National Parks is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). This forms part one of the survey of lands within these two reserves with part two of the survey incorporating newly acquired lands. Ten communities are defined based on PATN analysis and one specialised community is as circumscribed by previous surveys. These eleven communities are mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and altitude. Most communities are of a Tall Open Forest structure, however Woodlands exist along with Heaths, Sedgelands, Shrublands and Closed Forest. The distribution of communities is related to drainage, aspect, slope and soil depth. VIS_ID 4716

Vegetation survey and mapping of Gunyerwarildi National Park in 2009, commissioned by NPWS Narrabri Region. Four communities were determined based on floristic analysis of 20 x 20 m survey sites, and described using dominant species and structural characteristics. Vegetation communities were mapped using ground truthing, position in landscape and stereo interpretation of aerial photos captured at 1:50,000. Lineage and attribution accuracy are unknown.

Maryland National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2006 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Maryland NP lies within NSW approximately 20km north east of Stanthorpe, Qld and comprises some 2,284 ha of lands. Parts of these reserved lands were once under the control and management of State Forests, while other more recent additions were free hold land used for grazing enterprises. The reserve lies along the NSW-Qld border and is half within the Northern Tablelands and half in the North Coast Botanical Divisions. The lands are incorporated entirely within the New England Tablelands Bioregion within the local government areas of the Parish of Marsh, County of Buller and Shire of Tenterfield. The vegetation of Maryland National Park is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Six communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association). These six communities were mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. Almost all of the reserve is dominated by the Eucalyptus biturbinata, Eucalyptus campanulata and Lophostemon confertus. Much of the reserve has been disturbed in the past, particularly by Logging, clearing and grazing. The original mapping was recorded as VIS ID_457 and this version has the addition of PCT and fire veg classification fields. VIS_ID 4745

Barayamal National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2008 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Barayamal National Park incorporates approximately 178 ha and lies within the eastern outskirts of Inverell on the North Western Slopes Botanical District and the New England Bioregion. The vegetation of Barayamal National Park is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Five communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association). These six communities were mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. Much of the reserve is characterised by Lespedeza juncea was the most ubiquitous species within the reserve. Overall the character of the vegetation within the reserve can be described as being dominated by herbs and grasses and in particular Lespedeza juncea, Themeda triandra, Dichanthium sericeum, Swainsona galegifolia, Sorghum leiocladum and Bothriochloa macra. All communities described are of conservation significance. VIS_ID 4708

Initially part of Sunny Corner SF , Eusdale NR was mapped by NSW State Forests prior to ownership by NPWS. Additional gaps in the vegetation mapping have been filled by local NPWS staff using State Forest RN17 typing and local knowledge to create a new version in 2009. An addition to Eusdale " Stony Creek" was subsequently mapped by Raymond Mjadwesch in 2011. In mapping the addition Mjadwesch updated the typing to correlate the vegetation mapping across the entire reserve with Keith (2004) Classes. The Keith Classes were revised by NPWS staff in 2013 and additional attributes about the composition of the understorey included as field "SHRB_GRASS" to assist with fire planning. For further information on individual mapping see dataset history. VIS_ID 3982

Kwiambal National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2008 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. This was a revision of the 1998 mapping. The Kwiambal National Park (6,517 ha in area) is approximately 130 km north-west of Glen Innes and 30 km from Ashford. Kwiambal is placed within one of the largest areas of remnant woodlands on the north west slopes of NSW. The region is in the Northern Complex Province of the Nandewar Biogeographical Region and within the North Western Slopes Botanical District, both of which are poorly represented in the current reserve network. The vegetation of Kwiambal National Park is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Eleven communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association). These Eleven communities were mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. Much of the reserve is characterised by Callitris glaucophylla, Eucalyptus dealbata and Eucalyptus melanophloia in the overstorey with a shrub layer of Melichrus urceolatus, Leptospermum brevipes, and Acacia leiocalyx and a herbaceous layer of Aristida ramosa, Cheilanthes sieberi, Cheilanthes distans, Commelina cyanea, Tripogon loliiformis and Cyperus gracilis.
