Northern Tablelands Koala Habitat Restoration Project

Brief description

The Northern Tablelands region of New South Wales has a long history of vegetation restoration programs. However, there is no central repository for documenting these efforts. This project has been established to address that need. The format and content were developed by experienced ecological restoration practitioners. Data acquired on the location and characteristics of restoration sites, the work undertaken at the sites and the outcomes achieved create an information base for coordinating and planning large-scale restoration programs, and provide data for summarising and analysing restoration work at different spatial and temporal scales. Data is entered into standard forms. The Site Information and Work Details form captures characteristics of work sites and details the on-ground restoration activities conducted at the sites. A second data form, currently in development, will log the results of site monitoring programs. The data entry templates developed for this project are available to ALA BioCollect Ecoscience Projects in other regions and with other vegetation restoration goals. Assistance with navigating the project and entering data is available in the User Guide which can be found in the Resources page. The project is funded by the NSW Koala Strategy.
