The ACT Vegetation Map classifies native and derived vegetation across the ACT at 1:10,000 scale into 64 plant communities. Vegetation communities are geographical units with similar association of plant species. The product also includes canopy cover and height variables based on 2015 ACT LiDAR data. Vegetation maps are important tools for characterising the landscape, informing policy and providing information for land and habitat management plans, including to help identify threats and risks to biodiversity and help prioritise protection of important ecological values in our landscape. This product will enable evidence-based decision-making at a broad regional, local and property planning scale in the ACT. It will also formulate a new baseline for future change detection in the landscape.
Method: In the ACT Vegetation Map, native and derived vegetation across the entire ACT was classified into 64 plant communities using the classification described by Armstrong et al 2013, in addition to three newly described ACT specific communities (Baines et al 2013). Mapping was completed using aerial imagery and stereo pair interpretation (2012-2015), extensive field work, collation of consultant reports and supplemental structural and canopy height datasets extracted from the 2015 ACT LiDAR capture at 1-5m grid resolution (van Dijk et al 2017 - in draft). The work expands on the vegetation mapping completed for the Kowen, Majura and Jerrabomberra districts of the ACT (Baines et al 2013).
The product includes the following attributes :
UMC_ID – Upper Murrumbidgee Catchment vegetation ID (unique vegetation code) (after Armstrong et al 2013)
VEG_COMM – vegetation community name (after Armstrong et al 2013 and Baines et al 2013)
TREESp1-3 – dominant tree species
SHRUBSp1-3 – dominant shrub species
GROUNDSp1-3 – dominant ground cover species
CANOPYCOVER – canopy cover % (based on 1m 2015 LiDAR canopy cover model)
HEIGHT_MEAN – mean canopy height (>3m) (based on 1m 2015 LiDAR canopy height model)
UNDERCOVER – understory/shrubcover % (1-3m) (based on 5m LiDAR understory fractional cover model – van Djik 2017 in press)
STRUCTURE – overall vegetation community structure – e.g. woodland, forest, grassland
FORMATION – Keith Formation - broad classification of native vegetation type in NSW and ACT. Formation can be further divided into Keith Class (Keith 2004).
CLASS – Keith Class- vegetation class (Keith 2004).
VEG_COMM – vegetation community name (after Armstrong et al 2013 and Baines et al 2013)
TREESp1-3 – dominant tree species
SHRUBSp1-3 – dominant shrub species
GROUNDSp1-3 – dominant ground cover species
CANOPYCOVER – canopy cover % (based on 1m 2015 LiDAR canopy cover model)
HEIGHT_MEAN – mean canopy height (>3m) (based on 1m 2015 LiDAR canopy height model)
UNDERCOVER – understory/shrubcover % (1-3m) (based on 5m LiDAR understory fractional cover model – van Djik 2017 in press)
STRUCTURE – overall vegetation community structure – e.g. woodland, forest, grassland
FORMATION – Keith Formation - broad classification of native vegetation type in NSW and ACT. Formation can be further divided into Keith Class (Keith 2004).
CLASS – Keith Class- vegetation class (Keith 2004).
This product should be used in conjunction with ACT Soil Landscapes, Hydrogeology and Land hazard mapping available on Actmapi, geological mapping provided by Geoscience Australia, and ACT derived LiDAR products including digital elevation model (DEM), slope and aspect (available CCBY 4.0).
Updates: Version 2018.v1. The product will be updated as required when new information is available to improve accuracy of the product and to reflect changes and disturbance to vegetation, especially in the urban environment.
Fit for purpose: Mapped at 1:10,000. This scale is for use at scales ranging from broad regional planning to local planning and property planning.

AUSRIVAS (Australian River Assessment System) is a river condition monitoring program that uses the environmental sensitivity of aquatic macroinvertebrates to assess the condition of waterways. AUSRIVAS predicts the macroinvertebrate fauna expected to occur at a site with specific environmental characteristics, in the absence of environmental stress. The fauna observed (O) at a site can then be compared to fauna expected (E), with the deviation between the two providing an indication of biological condition. A site displaying no biological impairment should have an O/E taxa score close to one. The O/E taxa score will decrease as the macroinvertebrate assemblage and richness are adversely affected.
ACT Government maintains 13 AUSRIVAS monitoring locations across the ACT. Sampling is undertaken twice per year (spring and autumn). Site details are provided in another dataset. The O/E taxa score (Score) is provided in this dataset, along with the siteID, Site Name, Season in which the survey was undertaken, and the Year in which the survey was undertaken.

Soil and Land Resources of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT)
This digital soil landscape product contains natural resource mapping for the Australian Capital Territory. The project was completed by the Office of Environment and Heritage (NSW). The project was funded by the ACT Government to enhance knowledge of soils, landscapes and physical constraints to land use in the urban and rural environment. The information will assist in informed decision making, planning and environmental modelling throughout the catchment.
55 soil landscape map units have been described for the ACT. Each unit is an inventory of soil and landscape information with relatively uniform land management requirements, allowing major soil and landscape qualities and constraints to be identified.
The GIS product shown here provides location of each of the soil landscape map units - including the soil landscape code and name. For more detailed information please see the full soil landscape reports for each unit, as well as the final report shown at: https://www.environment.act.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0010/2079667/soil-landscapes-of-the-act-2016.pdf. Detailed spreadsheets can be used to join more detailed information to the GIS also available on request. Also view: https://datasets.seed.nsw.gov.au/dataset/soil-and-land-resources-of-the-australian-capital-territory-act.
