Description
This polygon spatial dataset represents average tonnes per hectare of carbon emissions from land clearing in the Northern Territory.
The original data was provided to the Department of Environment, Parks and Water Security (DEPWS) by the CSIRO. This data was modified by DEPWS to provide 11 classes of average carbon emissions from land clearing in the Northern Territory.
This department is recognised by CSIRO as the custodians and manager of this digital data.

Data Quality
Lineage:CSIRO provided a GeoTIFF to this department to describe: Estimated per-hectare carbon emissions from land clearing, as generated from the Full Carbon Accounting Model (FullCAM). Average expected outcome was calculated over a 40-year period (1977-2017) to include variability associated with historical fire. Predicted emissions in response to land clearing events were calculated as the sum of the four carbon pools assumed to return to the atmosphere as a result of clearing: aboveground biomass, belowground biomass, aboveground debris, and aboveground standing dead. The final GeoTIFF depicts total biomass, presented in units of tonnes of carbon dioxide-equivalent per hectare (tCO2-e ha-1).
Version 1 - 28 March, 2022.
The image was clipped to the Northern Territory boundary and reclassified into 11 classes based on average per-hectare tonnes of carbon emissions. The resultant value, MXAVG_TCO2, reflected the maximum average tonnes/ha. Each polygon contains a MXAVG_TCO2 value.
Explanatory notes about how to use the spatial data is included in the spatial data package. Refer to Access Constraint in this metadata record.
Positional Accuracy:The original GeoTIFF grid has a spatial resolution of 250 m x 250 m.
Attribute Accuracy:Each polygon contains a MXAVG_TCO2 value.
Logical Consistency:Polygons are single part.
Completeness:Version 1 of this dataset is described as Complete.
If the data is updated, the lineage notes will reflect changes.
