This dataset is a polygon representation of the significance of the vegetation communities 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 derived from the Vegetation layer. Each polygon represents a the significance of a single vegetation community based on the conservation status of that community. Vegetation communities were identified to a 1ha resolution or to 0.25ha where a threatened vegetation community was suspected. 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 vegetation communities within the upper Derwent Estuary wetlands of Tasmania. Each polygon represents a single vegetation community; mapping units conform to TASVEG 1.0 mapping unit specifications. Vegetation communities were identified to a 1ha resolution or to 0.25ha where a threatened vegetation community was suspected. This dataset is one of three produced for the upper Derwent Estuary wetlands for the Derwent Estuary Program.

The occurrence of each weed in each cell is recorded as a separate record. 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 records the long term viability of native vegetation communities occurring within the cells of a 1ha grid placed along the coastal strip of the Northern and Southern National Resource Management (NRM) Regions of Tasmania The viability is determined by the condition of the native vegetation modified by the presence of weeds, cleared land, roads and tracks within the cell (See Interpretation Manual for rule set). It has been developed as a management tool from other layers within the project. This dataset is part of the NRM Coastal Values Project.

## **Abstract** This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied. Resource contains an ArcGIS file geodatabase raster for the National Vegetation Information System (NVIS) Major Vegetation Groups - Australia-wide, present extent (FGDB_NVIS4_1_AUST_MVG_EXT). Related datasets are also included: FGDB_NVIS4_1_KEY_LAYERS_EXT - ArcGIS File Geodatabase Feature Class of the Key Datasets that make up NVIS Version 4.1 - Australia wide; and FGDB_NVIS4_1_LUT_KEY_LAYERS - Lookup table for Dataset Key Layers. This raster dataset provides the latest summary information (November 2012) on Australia's present (extant) native vegetation. It is in Albers Equal Area projection with a 100 m x 100 m (1 Ha) cell size. A comparable Estimated Pre-1750 (pre-european, pre-clearing) raster dataset is available: - NVIS4_1_AUST_MVG_PRE_ALB. State and Territory vegetation mapping agencies supplied a new version of the National Vegetation Information System (NVIS) in 2009-2011. Some agencies did not supply new data for this version but approved re-use of Version 3.1 data. Summaries were derived from the best available data in the NVIS extant theme as at June 2012. This product is derived from a compilation of data collected at different scales on different dates by different organisations. Please refer to the separate key map showing scales of the input datasets. Gaps in the NVIS database were filled by non-NVIS data, notably parts of South Australia and small areas of New South Wales such as the Curlewis area. The data represent on-ground dates of up to 2006 in Queensland, 2001 to 2005 in South Australia (depending on the region) and 2004/5 in other jurisdictions, except NSW. NVIS data was partially updated in NSW with 2001-09 data, with extensive areas of 1997 data remaining from the earlier version of NVIS. Major Vegetation Groups were identified to summarise the type and distribution of Australia's native vegetation. The classification contains different mixes of plant species within the canopy, shrub or ground layers, but are structurally similar and are often dominated by a single genus. In a mapping sense, the groups reflect the dominant vegetation occurring in a map unit where there are a mix of several vegetation types. Subdominant vegetation groups which may also be present in the map unit are not shown. For example, the dominant vegetation in an area may be mapped as dominated by eucalypt open forest, although it contains pockets of rainforest, shrubland and grassland vegetation as subdominants. The (related) Major Vegetation Subgroups represent more detail about the understorey and floristics of the Major Vegetation Groups and are available as separate raster datasets: - NVIS4_1_AUST_MVS_EXT_ALB - NVIS4_1_AUST_MVS_PRE_ALB A number of other non-vegetation and non-native vegetation land cover types are also represented as Major Vegetation Groups. These are provided for cartographic purposes, but should not be used for analyses.

The current NVIS data products are available from http://www.environment.gov.au/land/native-vegetation/national-vegetation-information-system. ## **Purpose** For use in Bioregional Assessment land classification analyses ## **Dataset History** NVIS Version 4.1 ------------------------- The input vegetation data were provided from over 100 individual projects representing the majority of Australia's regional vegetation mapping over the last 50 years. State and Territory custodians translated the vegetation descriptions from these datasets into a common attribute framework, the National Vegetation Information System (ESCAVI, 2003). Scales of input mapping ranged from 1:25,000 to 1:5,000,000. These were combined into an Australia-wide set of vector data. Non-terrestrial areas were mostly removed by

Declared Weeds (points, lines and polygons) draws observation records from the Natural Values Atlas (NVA) of Tasmania of weeds that are listed as declared pests under the Biosecurity Act (2019). Understanding the distribution of weeds is integral to prioritising weed management activities and measuring outcomes of that work. The Natural Values Atlas (NVA) of Tasmania supports the administration of the Biosecurity Act (2019) through maintaining a centralised database that provides for secure and effective storage, retrieval and backup of weed data. Declared Weeds (Points), for any given species, is indicative only; it is a collection of observation records and not a definitive map of a species’ distribution or abundance. Potential data errors may include: inaccurate records (wrong ID/location), 'missing' records (not detected/reported), and 'historical' records (no longer present). Comprehensive, high quality data provides for better decision-making and relies on communal efforts to collect and share weed observations by submitting records to the NVA.
