It can be used to monitor changes in the landscape and identify impacts on biodiversity values and individual ecosystems. The NSW 2017 Landuse mapping is dated September 2017. It incorporates tenure based information for National Parks and State Forests in NSW, at the time of mapping. It currently does not include the Greater Sydney Metropolitan Region. Greater Sydney region will be completed in late 2019 and will be incorporated into the NSW 2017 land use product version 1.1. The NSW Landuse 2013, currently contains the best available information for the Greater Sydney region. https://datasets.seed.nsw.gov.au/dataset/nsw-landuse-2013 The 2017 Landuse has complete coverage of all regional centres and towns for NSW. It also includes updates to the fine scale Horticulture mapping for the east coast of NSW - Newcastle to the Queensland boarder. This horticultural mapping includes operations to the commodity level based on field work and high resolution imagery interpretation. The reliability scale is 1:10,000 and include values in the attribute fields of Source, Source Date, Source Scale, Reliability and LU Mapping (Currency) Date. Land use has been mapped on high resolution aerial imagery including ADS (digital imagery) captured by NSW Department of Finance, Service and Innovation, along with using Nearmap, Google Earth and Google Street View. Satellite imagery from LANDSAT (NASA), Sentinel 2 (European Space Agency), SPOT 5, 6 and 7(Airbus) and Planet Imagery, was used in the mapping process to account for Landuse activities that occur as part of a rotational practise. Land use information has been captured in accordance with standards set by the Australian Collaborative Land Use Mapping Program (ACLUMP) and using the Australian Land Use and Management ALUM Classification Version 8. The ALUM classification is based upon the modified Baxter & Russell classification and presented according to the specifications contained in http://www.agriculture.gov.au/abares/aclump/land-use/alum-classification. This product will be incorporated in the National Catchment scale land use product 2018 that will be available as a 50m raster - Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences (ABARES) http://www.agriculture.gov.au/abares/aclump/land-use/data-download

    Description

    The transitional NVR map - category 2-sensitive regulated land layer is a component of the transitional NVR map. The transitional NVR Map was prepared by Department of Planning and Environment (DPE) under Part 5A of the Local Land Services Act 2013 (LLS Act) and supporting Local Land Services Regulation 2014.

    The 2022 annual review of the transitional NVR map was published on 23 March 2022. Please read below for details about changes occurring as a result of the 2022 annual review. The latest version of the map can be viewed online using the transitional NVR map viewer.

    https://www.lmbc.nsw.gov.au/Maps/index.html?viewer=NVRMap

    Section 108 of the Local Land Services Regulation 2014 states that the NVR map designates category 2-sensitive regulated land as a sub-category of category 2-regulated land and lists the types of land to be included.

    Datasets compiled to generate the category 2-sensitive regulated land layer include those identifying land that:

    • has been declared as a Ramsar wetland (Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999)

    • is under a private land conservation agreement

    • is Coastal Wetland or Littoral Rainforests mapped under State Environmental Planning Policy (Coastal Management) 2018

    • is native vegetation required to be retained within forestry plantations under the Plantations and reafforestation Act 1999

    • is an offset under a property vegetation plan or other approval

    • is a set-aside under the Land Management (Native Vegetation) Code 2018 or under the Native Vegetation Regulation 2013.

    • is an approved conservation measure as part of a Biodiversity Certification of land under Part 8 of the Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016.

    • contains critically endangered ecological communities or plants

    • is considered to be core koala habitat under an approved Koala Plan of Management

    • is subject to a remedial action or;

    • was mapped as old-growth forest or rainforest under the Comprehensive Regional Assessment undertaken for the Regional Forest Agreements.

    The inclusion an/or update of these layers on the NVR map requires the approval of the Secretary DPIE or delegate.

    Changes to the mapping of category 2-sensitive regulated land introduced in the publish of the transitional NVR map on 23 March 2022 included:

    • additions to category 2 – sensitive regulated land of set-aside areas approved between February 2021 and October 2021 under the Land Management (Native Vegetation) Code 2018

    • Critically Endangered Plants – Refinements to mapping of some critically endangered plants.

    • Private Native Forestry Old Growth Forest and Rainforest – Updates to mapping of Old Growth Forest and Rainforest via private native forestry code approvals under Part 5B or land holder- initiated reviews under Part 5A of the Local Land Service Act 2013.

    • Property Vegetation Plans – Updates to term incentive property vegetation plans (PVP) agreements under the Native Vegetation Act 2003, for which the term has expired.

    • Biodiversity Conservation Trust agreements – Refinements of, and updates to conservation agreements managed by the NSW Biodiversity Conservation Trust.

    The data is provided as multi value raster that identifies the category 2-sensitive regulated land, category 2-vulnerable regulated land and where category 2-sensitive and category 2-vulnerable regulated land overlaps.

    Pixel values:

    3 - category 2-vulnerable regulated land

    4 - category 2-sensitive regulated land

    6 - Where category 2-sensitive and category 2-vulnerable regulated land overlap (display class)

    Spatial datasets compiled in the category 2-sensitive regulated land layer are sourced from Department Planning and Environment, Environment Protection Authority, Biodiversity Conservation Trust, Department of the Environment and Energy and NSW Local councils.

    Data on the transitional NVR viewer is updated on a monthly basis for Landholder minor data changes. https://www.lmbc.nsw.gov.au/Maps/index.html?viewer=NVRMap

It provides a broad-scale, regional view as to the dominant LSC class present for over 3000 individual mapping units through the assessment of eight key soil and landscape limitations (water erosion, wind erosion, salinity, topsoil acidification, shallow soils/rockiness, soil structure decline, waterlogging and mass movement). The assessment of LSC is based on the mapping method and rule set developed by OEH (2012). It builds on the rural land capability classification and mapping undertaken for the central and eastern divisions of the state by the former Soil Conservation Service of NSW (Emery 1986) but with more emphasis on a broader range of soil and landscape properties. The mapping is based on an eight class system with values ranging between 1 and 8 which represent a decreasing capability of the land to sustain landuse. Class 1 represents land capable of sustaining most landuses including those that have a high impact on the soil (e.g., regular cultivation), whilst class 8 represents land that can only sustain very low impact landuses (e.g., nature conservation). Information about the LSC ruleset called the Land and Soil Capability Assessment Scheme: Second Approximation can be downloaded from the DPIE website or from this Resource's page in SEED. Online Maps: This dataset can be viewed using eSPADE (NSW’s soil spatial viewer), which contains a suite of soil and landscape information including soil profile data. Many of these datasets have hot-linked soil reports. An alternative viewer is the SEED Map; an ideal way to see what other natural resources datasets (e.g. vegetation) are available for this map area.

    Original Dataset Lineage: This spatial dataset reflects the current planning legislation in NSW in particular the maps and legislation published on the NSW legislation website (www.legislation.nsw.gov.au). The data production usually occurs in conjunction with the development of the Local Enviornmental Plan it is connected to. Original data inputs are produced by Local Goverment or the Department according to map and data standards developed by the Department and published externally via the website. These data inputs are checked by data and cartographic staff as well as planning staff internally against the map and data standards as well as for accurate content. Once the planning instrument is notified, the input data will be incorporated into the relevant LEP datasets. The quality management processes involved in the data production to this point are routinely screened by internal and external auditors for certification under ISO 9001 - Quality Management Systems. At this point the various datasets are then combined into a new normalised data schema to suit the requirements of the online Planning Viewer. This occurs via various automated ETL processes. Although every care is taken in ETL processes to maintain accuracy sometimes differences between inputs and final normalised data can occur.

    Description

    The statewide Koala Habitat Information Base has been developed as part of the NSW Koala Strategy. It delivers the best available state-wide spatial data on koala habitat, likelihood, koala preferred trees and koala sightings for NSW. It will be an important resource to assist government agencies, local councils and private land holders with koala conservation decisions. It will help to prioritise the establishment of new koala reserves and private land conservation agreements to protect koala habitat, ensure local actions are based on the best available information, and improve the management of threats and disease. The Koala Habitat Information Base is not a regulatory instrument, meaning that the data layers do not categorise land for regulatory purposes. It does provide the best available scientific information to support decision makers, rehabilitators, land managers and community members involved in koala conservation. The Koala Habitat Information Base comprises several layers of spatial information, including: Koala Habitat Suitability Model (KHSM) – the probability of finding koala habitat at any location Koala Tree Suitability Index (KTSI) – the probability of finding a tree species that koalas are known to use for food or shelter Koala Likelihood Map (KLM) including a confidence layer – predicts the likelihood of finding a koala at a location Areas of Regional Koala Significance (ARKS) – identifies key koala populations and management areas with potential for long-term viability as well as priority threats to key koala populations. Native vegetation of NSW – this is a high-resolution model of native tree cover and water bodies All koala sightings recorded in NSW Bionet All Koala Habitat Information Base datasets are available for download at the links below under 'Dataset relationship'.

    The 2017 Landuse captures how the landscape in NSW is being used for food production, forestry, nature conservation, infrastructure and urban development. It can be used to monitor changes in the landscape and identify impacts on biodiversity values and individual ecosystems.

    The NSW 2017 Landuse mapping is dated September 2017.

    This is version 1.5 of the dataset, published December 2023.

    Version 1.5 of the 2017 Landuse incorporates the following updates:

    Previous Versions *Version 1.4 internal update (not published) * Version 1.3 internal update (not published) * Version 1.2 published 24 June 2020 - Fine scale update to Greater Sydney Metropolitan Area * Version 1 published August 2019

    The 2017 Landuse is based on Aerial imagery and Satellite imagery available for NSW. These include, but not limited to; digital aerial imagery (ADS) captured by NSW Department of Customer Service (DCS), high resolution urban (Conurbation) digital aerial imagery captured on behalf of DCS, SPOT 5, 6 & 7(Airbus), Planet™, Sentinel 2 (European Space Agency) and LANDSAT (NASA) Satellite Imagery. Mapping also includes commercially available imagery from Nearmap™ and Google Earth™, along with Google Street View™.

    Mapping takes into consideration ancillary datasets such as tenure such as National Parks and State forests, cadastre, roads parcels, land zoning, topographic information and Google Maps, in conjunction with visual interpretation and field validation of patterns and features on the ground.

    The 2017 Landuse has complete coverage of NSW. It also includes updates to the fine scale Horticulture mapping for the east coast of NSW - Newcastle to the Queensland boarder and Murray-Riverina Region. This horticultural mapping includes operations to the commodity level based on field work and high-resolution imagery interpretation.

    Landuse classes assigned are based on activities that have occurred in the last 5-10 years that may be part of a rotational practice. Time-series LANDSAT information has been used in conjunction with more recent Satellite Imagery to determine whether grasslands have been disturbed or subject to ongoing land management activities over the past 30 years.

    The 2017 Landuse was captured on screen using ARC GIS (Geographical Information Software) at a scale of 1:8,000 scale (or better) and features are mapped down to 2 hectares in size. Exceptions were made for targeted Landuse classes such as horticulture, intensive animal husbandry and urban environments (including Greater Sydney Metropolitan region), which were mapped at a finer scale.

    The reliability scale of the dataset is 1:10,000.

    Mapping has been subject to a peer review and quality assurance process.

    Land use information has been captured in accordance with standards set by the Australian Collaborative Land Use Mapping Program (ACLUMP) and using the Australian Land Use and Management ALUM Classification Version 8. The ALUM classification is based upon the modified Baxter & Russell classification and presented according to the specifications contained in http://www.agriculture.gov.au/abares/aclump/land-use/alum-classification.

    This product will be incorporated in the National Catchment scale land use product 2020 that will be available as a 50m raster - Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences (ABARES) http://www.agriculture.gov.au/abares/aclump/land-use/data-download

    The Department of Planning, Industry and Environment (DPIE) will continue to complete land use mapping at approximately 5-year intervals.

    The 2017 Landuse product is considered as a benchmark product that can be used for Landuse change reporting. Ongoing improvements to the 2017 Landuse product will be undertaken to correct errors or additional improvements to the mapping.

Examples of products this map supports includes Land and Soil Capability mapping, Inherent fertility of soils in NSW and Great Soil Group soil types in NSW. Confidence classes are determined based on the data scale, type of mapping and information collected, accuracy of the attributes and quality assurance on the product. Soil data confidence is described using a 4 class system between high and very low as outlined below.: Good (1) - All necessary soil and landscape data is available at a catchment scale (1:100,000 & 1:250,000) to undertake the assessment of LSC and other soil thematic maps. Moderate (2) - Most soil and landscape data is available at a catchment scale (1:100,000 - 1:250,000) to undertake the assessment of LSC and other soil thematic maps. Low (3) - Limited soil and landscape data is available at a reconnaissance catchment scale (1:100,000 & 1:250,000) which limits the quality of the assessment of LSC and other soil thematic maps. Very low (4) - Very limited soil and landscape data is available at a broad catchment scale (1:250,000 - 1:500,000) and the LSC and other soil thematic maps should be used as a guide only. Online Maps: This dataset can be viewed using eSPADE (NSW’s soil spatial viewer), which contains a suite of soil and landscape information including soil profile data. Many of these datasets have hot-linked soil reports. An alternative viewer is the SEED Map; an ideal way to see what other natural resources datasets (e.g. vegetation) are available for this map area.

Additional vegetation surveying has been undertaken in Cessnock LGA to refine existing mapping products. The data aims to provide a suitable resource to support regional sustainability planning, particularly the preparation of the Lower Hunter Regional Strategy and Regional Conservational Plan. The GIS mapping data were obtained to inform sustainability planning for the Lower Hunter region, particularly to assist in informing the NSW Government review of the NSW Lower Hunter regional strategy and Lower Hunter regional conservation plan. Once this review is complete, the second stage is to undertake a strategic assessment of proposed urban development and related infrastructure corridors.

    Description

    Abstract

    The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme. This dataset was derived from the Future Residential Growth Area dataset. You can find a link to the parent dataset in the Lineage Field in this metadata statement. The history field in this metadata statement describes how this dataset was derived.

    Important Note: 14/01/2015. Since we generated these spatial layer datasets, the NSW Department of Planning and Environment has published an interactive CSG Exclusion Zone map. Interested parties should go to http://www.planning.nsw.gov.au/en-au/planningyourregion/strategicregionallanduse/coalseamgasexclusionzones.aspx where they can find out more about CSG exclusion zones. The information in the Bioregional Assessment products aligns with the CSG exclusion zones as published by NSW and the subsequent publication of those NSW maps does not alter the information in our assessments.

    The spatial layers developed by the Bioregional Assessment programme are not available to be downloaded.

    Future Residential Growth Area Land has been identified in planning instruments or Government-endorsed planning strategies. It is proposed that coal seam gas activities will be prohibited in and within two kilometres of these areas.

    Note a 2 km buffer was placed by ERIN around the extent of the future residential growth areas. The original data does not contain a 2 km buffer zone around future residential growth areas.

    Purpose

    It is proposed that coal seam gas activities will be prohibited in and within these two kilometre buffered areas.
