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.

This dataset is a polygon representation of potential habitat for threatened fauna within the coastal strip of the Northern and Southern National Resource Management (NRM) Regions of Tasmania. Each polygon represents a single vegetation community for a single fauna species therefore some records are coincident (vegetation is habitat for several species) and the layer is not continuous. The mapped habitat for each species is attributed with its significance (based on the species conservation status and/or the habitat's use as either foraging or nesting habitat).

This dataset is part of the assessment and mapping of foreshore values, condition and pressure in the North and Cradle Coast Natural Resource Management (NRM) Regions of Tasmania. The 13 line maps produced in this study are intended to be used as a tool to assist managers and stakeholders in the identification of management issues with regards to foreshore planning, development, and natural resources. Assessment of the foreshore is based on the division of the mean high water mark into 100 m line segments. Using an assessment framework, each foreshore segment is assigned a score for a series of environmental stressors and values. Segments are colour coded based on their score to reflect their values and the differing levels of risk associated with each stressor. This digital line map is a representation of the risk of to the intertidal zone in regard to habitat removal in the North and Cradle Coast NRM regions and is derived from an assessment of pressures associated with this stressor. An explanatory report is available from the data custodian and from the Aquenal website which provides detailed methods and further explanation of the dataset.
