Dominant landform, soils and vegetation are described for each Land System, and general land capability is assessed. The study area covers approximately 2220 ha approximately 60 km south-east of Alice Springs. The objectives of the investigation were to a. undertake a reconnaissance investigation to determine the general land capability of the area to support horticultural development, b. map and describe land resources within the study area. and c. generate land capability ratings for each land system facet based on assessment of soil and landscape attributes against an explicit set of criteria.Download the spatial data package (contains spatial data, maps and reports) via data.nt.gov.au/ You are licensed to use the DLPE geospatial products on the terms and conditions set out in: Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC BY 4.0) at: creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode If you do not agree to the terms and conditions you must not use the geospatial products.

Polygon topology rules applied are - must not overlap, must not have gaps and each polygon has only one label.0not knownPolygon data - map unit boundaries delineated on screen using geographical information system software. Positional accuracy generally considered to be high. The NT Visualiser Aerial Photography Mosaic acheives roughly 7.2m accuracy. (Photogrammetric Engineering and Remote Sensing Vol. 72, No. 3, March 2006, pp. 249 - 260). Esri World Imagery provides one meter or better satellite and aerial imagery in many parts of the world and lower resolution satellite imagery worldwide. The positional accuracy in the Deep Well area is likely at the lower end of this.0not knownThe attribute information conforms to the 'Australian Soil and Land Survey Field Handbook' at time of capture. Attributes are assigned according to the dominant facet within each Land System. The department's list of core attribute values, described in the Data Dictionary below, have been added to each polygon. The dominant facet of each land system has been assessed for GENERAL LAND CAPABILITY, evaluating landscape characteristics that could influence the general use of the land. A General Land Capability Class of 1: Land with negligible constraints, to Class 4: Land with Extreme Constraints, has been assigned to each land facet. The capability of the dominant land facet is assigned to each land system. Information about the General Land Capability of individual land facets within each Land System is available in the accompanying report.

Field data described and classified according to national standards at the time of capture. Final map unit boundaries adjusted to account for field data. Core landform, soil and vegetation attributes attached to map units with additional attributes unique to individual surveys.
