Biodiversity values across the study area include sensitive and/or significant vegetation communities and threatened and significant flora and fauna. These values were identified and assessed to derive and map overall biodiversity values across the study area.

Broadly delineated areas of high value for threatened mammals and priority conservation areas for Typhonium praetermissum are also presented in the datasets:
 - Typhonium praetermissum Priority Conservation Areas in the Greater Weddell Subregion, 2025 (http://www.ntlis.nt.gov.au/metadata/export_data?type=html&amp;metadata_id=34AF242C521E4921E0632144CD9B62EE )
 - High Value Habitat for Threatened Mammals in the Greater Weddell Subregion, 2025 (http://www.ntlis.nt.gov.au/metadata/export_data?type=html&amp;metadata_id=34AD962B2D57EB9EE0632144CD9B130B )

Produced as part of the biodiversity assessment of the Greater Weddell subregion, 2025.
The biodiversity assessment study area covers approximately 39,422 ha and is located approximately 13 km south of Darwin.</gco:CharacterString></gmd:abstract><gmd:resourceMaintenance><gmd:MD_MaintenanceInformation><gmd:maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency><gmd:MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode codeList="http://www.isotc211.org/resources/codeList?MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode" codeListValue="notPlanned"/></gmd:maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency></gmd:MD_MaintenanceInformation></gmd:resourceMaintenance><gmd:resourceConstraints><gmd:MD_LegalConstraints><gmd:useLimitation><gco:CharacterString>Download the spatial data package via https://data.nt.gov.au/
