Description

Abstract:

This is a polygon spatial dataset displaying Weed Management Zones for weed species with a Statutory Weed Management Plan.
Management zones are described as Class A, for eradication, and Class B, for control and containment. Both Class A and B are also described as Class C, not to be introduced to the NT.
Information is provided for general guidance only. Map users should refer to the Gazette notice for the formal definitions of the zones.

Species list for Management Zones: Athel pine, Bellyache bush, Brazillian pepper, Cabomba, Dalbergia, Gamba grass, Mimosa.

Data Quality

Lineage:Each polygon was drawn using a GIS (ArcGIS 10.2) against the corresponding Northern Territory Government Gazettal description, usually following cadastral boundaries.
When a management plan is updated, web links to the PDF stored in the Northern Territory Library will be edited.

Positional Accuracy:NA

Attribute Accuracy:Attribute information is correct at the time of publishing but is subject to change with amendments to statutory plans or declaration status.

Logical Consistency:Polygon extents for each management zone were merged to a single dataset and polygons will overlap. Each polygon has a label with descriptive attributes.

Completeness:The zones are subject to change by statutory instrument. This metadata record and the associated spatial data will reflect changes.
