Vegetation community mapping for Macquarie Nature Reserve by Cathy Mardell, 1995. VIS_ID 441

Freemantle Nature Reserve vegetation mapping conducted in 1999-2000. This mapping was part of the vegetation survey of Mullion Range State Recreation Area, Wambool Nature Reserve, Freemantle Nature Reserve, Girralang Nature Reserve and Eugowra Nature Reserve undertaken for the Central West District of NSW by Marianne F. Portners in 2000. Report for the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. The composition and extent of the present vegetation within Wambool, Freemantle, Girralang and Eugowra Nature Reserves and Mullion Range State Recreation Area (SRA), in the Central West region of NSW, is described and mapped at 1:25 000 scale (1:50 000 scale for Eugowra) from intensive quadrat samples, field traverses and aerial photograph interpretation. Eleven vegetation communities are described and 302 species (308 taxa) of vascular plants recorded from 70 families, several of which are at their geographical limits or regionally restricted. A significantly high proportion of species (19%) are exotic. VIS_ID 1011

Survey and mapping was commissioned by NPWS Western Branch Macquarie Area, Bathurst office. Six floristic quadrats were sampled to further describe the vegetation communities. Walked transects and topographic maps were used to delineate vegetation boundaries. The author correlated map units to vegetation communities described in the original Winburndale NR vegetation report (ERM Mitchell McCotter 1996) and allocated them to NSW Vegetation Classes and Formations (Keith 2004) for fire management purposes. Hardcopy maps were digitsed in the Dubbo NPWS Western Branch office. Subsequent to the final report, NPWS staff have corrected correlation errors and re-assigned some map units to the NSW classification (Keith 2004). Mt Horrible (addition to Winburndale NR) mapping supplements existing mapping for Winburndale NR [Vegetation descriptions in: ERM Mitchell McCotter Pty. Ltd. (1996) Bathurst vegetation survey for NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service: Bathurst District covering Winburndale NR, Nangar NP, Conimbla NP and Weddin Mountains NP. NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service, Bathurst. Mapping undertaken by Roger Lembit under contract to NPWS Bathurst District office in 1997 due to inadequacies in ERM mapping.]

In 2017, the Northern Tablelands office of the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH) commissioned Eco Logical Australia (ELA) to conduct a comprehensive vegetation survey of the National Park. Vegetation across the study area was mapped using high resolution ADS40 aerial imagery via a 2D computer screen interface. A total of 66 polygons were captured collectively representing seven vegetation communities. Five of these communities were reasonable matches for existing Plant Community Types (PCTs) as described by OEH, while two other “communities” were small areas of derived grassland and rocky heath for which there are currently no suitable PCT matches.

Vegetation map digitised from Porteners, M.F. (1998). The composition and extent of the present vegetation in Weetalibah Nature Reserve is described and mapped at 1:50 000 scale from quadrat samples, field traverses and aerial photograph interpretation. Three vegetation communities are described and 125 species (127 taxa) of vascular plants recorded from 38 families, several of which are at their north-western geographical limit or regionally restricted. One species is listed under Schedule 2 of the 1995 NSW Threatened Species Conservation Act." VIS_ID 1014

Vegetation community mapping for the Worimi Conservation Lands - Worimi National Park, Worimi State Conservation Area and Worimi Regional Park, by Stephen Bell and Colin Driscoll, 2010. A Hunter NPWS Region contract. The Worimi Conservation Lands have been identified as a significant cultural landscape and are managed through a board of management by registered Aboriginal Owners and the Department of Environment and Heritage. The area covers 4,200 hectares. This vegetation map supercedes the previous Stockton Bight vegetation mapping. VIS_ID 3903

Vegetation community mapping for Khatambuhl Nature Reserve by Paul McDonald, 2002. Traditional API methodology was used to complete this job across five reserves for the Manning Area, Mid North Coast NPWS Region:; 1.Brimbin Nature Reserve and adjoining freehold lands.; 2.Coxcomb NR and Anderson VCA.; 3.Khatambuhl NR; 4.Two sections of Killabakh NR ; 5.Freehold purchase area on northwest corner of Goonook NR, around Mount Goonook.; The project consisted of fieldwork where possible and then interpretation of the photos to define the species types present. Some follow up fieldwork was undertaken.; Rather than assign a species type label to each polygon on the area, the polygon was given a number from 1 to n, for each area. A table for the area has a description of each polygon. VIS_ID 380

Tuggolo Creek Nature Reserve vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr Lachlan Copeland in 2007 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Tuggolo Creek Nature Reserve lies approximately 80km SSW of Walcha. A systematic veg survey was conducted March - May 2007 which included the collection of 22 full floristic plots. The data was analysed by PATN. Five distinct vegetation communities were recognised and mapped with two of these (Montane peatland/swap and Snow Gum Grassy Woodland) currently listed as endangered.
