Owners NSW Office of Environment and Heritage
Project Abstract OEH has developed a methodology for a regional scale map of plant community types for NSW, which is used to create a unified State Vegetation Type Map (SVTM). The SVTM uses aerial (ADS40/80) and satellite imagery (SPOT 5, SRTM, Landsat) and a collection of environmental variables. The SVTM provides baseline knowledge about the plant communities of NSW.
