Full description
This data record contains a national agricultural land capability map for Australia, based on state agricultural land capability datasets reclassified to a single agricultural land capability classification (NSW method) and modeled grazing suitability. The data includes three raster layers (provided as GeoTIFF land_capability). The national scale agricultural land capability map is the primary data product available in the agricultural land capability data package (raster layer with 9 classes adhering to the NSW land capability mapping method definitions). The compiled state and territory land capability data on the unified rating class system is available as a sub product of the agricultural land capability data package (existing_capability GeoTIFF). Pastoral capability based upon modeled grazing suitability is available as a sub product of the agricultural land capability data package (pastoral_capability GeoTIFF).
