This dataset has been superseded by https://metadata.imas.utas.edu.au/geonetwork/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/5d62676f-63d6-4282-9b23-ba1aedfc4fdd (NSW Estuarine Macrophytes).Distribution and abundance of seagrass, mangrove and saltmarsh in NSW estuaries
Lineage
Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlanned
Statement: Data Collection Method: Aerial photography interpretation.
Data Set Source: The data has been prepared from Land and Property Information photo runs.
Source Material Input Scale: 1:25 000
Additional Processing Steps: The aerial photographs were scanned into TIFF format files and imported into ERDAS IMAGINE as image files for orthorectification. The digital images were orthorectified using a Digital Elevation Model and Digital Topographic Database provided by Land and Property Information. Seagrass, mangrove and saltmarsh boundaries were digitised and edited in ArcGIS. Attributes were field validated.
