Description Category Biodiversity Theme Biodiversity Keywords and Qualifiers ECOLOGY ECOLOGY Community ECOLOGY Ecosystem ECOLOGY Habitat ECOLOGY Landscape FAUNA Native FLORA Native Dataset Type Spatial Description This dataset indicates areas of native vegetation which contain known biodiversity values listed under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act 1999 and/or National Parks and Wildlife (NPW) Act 1972, as well as those which may contain EPBC Act and/or NPW Act values (i.e. no records exist, but may require further field validation). Biodiversity values include both species (i.e. flora and fauna) as well as communities. It is intended as an interim dataset and will ultimately be replaced by more comprehensive biodiversity values mapping (in development). Dataset Use This dataset was developed to support land use planning decisions in relation to biodiversity legislation. It is for informational purposes only, and does not constitute a legal interpretation under relevant legislation. All matters require approvals under relevant legislation, including the EPBC Act, NPW Act and Native Vegetation Act.

Data Quality Lineage Native vegetation is extracted from relevant classes in the SA land cover (2015-2020) dataset, and then intersected with soil land systems to split any vegetation patches along the border of soil land systems and restrict the analysis to the agricultural zone. Each patch is then assessed to determine whether they contain any known EPBC Act and/or NPW Act listed flora or fauna, or EPBC Act listed communities. Flora and fauna are based on records from the Biological Databases of South Australia (BDBSA), including third party datasets, which have been filtered to remove records that have a low spatial reliability and that were observed prior to 1 January 2000. Communities are based on mapping by the federal Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water. Completeness This dataset is complete across the agricultural zone of South Australia (based on the extent of the soil land systems dataset). Positional Accuracy The polygon boundaries are based on the SA land cover dataset which has a 25m resolution. Only flora and fauna records with a spatial reliability of <500m were included in the analysis, and the maximum spatial reliability distance was used when assessing their presence within a patch of vegetation.
