Description
DRAFT IN PREP - Is a high resolution survey (1:25,000 scale dataset) describing/mapping mangrove communities from Darwin to Cape Hotham. Mapped information describes mangrove communities/vegetation units and their attributes as floristic and environmental data and provides a basis for identifying the extent and distribution of mangrove community resources for Darwin to Cape Hotham and its environs. (Vegetation Unit - A reasonably homogeneous part of the land surface, distinct from surrounding terrain with constant properties in landform and vegetation)

Data Quality
Lineage:Draft - Original linework derived visually and captured direct into GIS system from scaned aerial photography as vector information, resultant compilation then built as polygon coverage using ArcInfo giving preliminary map used to delinate community boundaries and site selection. Resultant linework extensively ground truthed with topographic basemap/GPS coordinated field survey/site data collection. Recompiled and updated to GDA94 as part of ongoing GIS Progarm 2004.
Source data
Aerial photography - 1:18,000 Col
Base map - Australian Topographic Survey Series 1:50,000 AGD66
- Northern Territory Cadastre AGD66
GIS - ArcInfo vector as AGD66/GDA94
Positional Accuracy:Good - Derived from topographic basemap, NT cadastre and GPS. The summation of errors from all sources results in data with a standard deviation defined by scale used as +/-50m for well-defined points.
Attribute Accuracy:High - The accuracy of the attribute information is considered high and conforms to the 'Australian Soil and Land Survey Field Handbook' at time of capture.
Logical Consistency:Good - Dataset topological consistency has been system checked and all classified polygons are closed, nodes are formed at the intersection of lines and there is only one label within each polygon. Polygons have been classified for community ID in the lookup table.
Completeness:In progress - Draft mapping judged complete at this stage - spatial and attribute verification of the dataset has been performed. Draft digital cover is available for export and draft product map has been produced.
