Description
This polygon spatial dataset provides information on the vegetation map unit boundaries for the proposed Mt Todd (Batman) joint venture mine site and surrrounding area. (Vegetation Unit - A reasonably homogeneous part of the land surface, distinct from surrounding terrain with constant properties in landform and vegetation) The mapped area covers 167 km2 and is located approximately 40km from the town of Katherine.
The original field survey was undertaken in 1989 at a mapping scale of 1:50 000.
The aim of this survey was to provide baseline vegetation data to Kinhill Pty Ltd for a Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and to assist in mapping Gouldian Finch habitat within the area.

Data Quality
Lineage:Unable to locate original linework re. Kinhill. Current line work ground truthed with topographic basemap/GPS.
Original map unit boundaries delineated from aerial photographs and stereoscope interpretation. Map units transferred to topographic map sheets via a mapograph. Original maps were hardcopy only. With the advent of geographic information systems polygons were digitised by rectifying the original hard copy maps.
Map unit boundaries derived using hard copy aerial photography and stereoscope, satellite imagery (post 1993), geological and topographic maps. Field data (site data) described and classified according to national standards at the time of capture.
Map unit polygons collected via geographic information system (ArcGIS/MapInfo).
Positional Accuracy:POLYGON DATA - Map unit boundaries digitised on screen directly from digital rectified aerial photographs. Level of accuracy depends on the number of control points on individual aerial photographs. Control points include creek lines, cadastre and other topographic features. Depending on the nature of the landscape (the number of control points), positional accuracy may vary. Positional accuracy generally considered high to very high.
POINT DATA - Site point coordinates collected from a geographic positioning system with general accuracy of within 100m. Selective availability during this time prevented increased accuracy.
Attribute Accuracy:The attribute information conforms to the 'Australian Soil and Land Survey Field Handbook' at time of capture. Attributes assigned according to the dominant feature.
Attribute values, as described in the Data Dictionary below, have been added to each polygon.
Logical Consistency:GIS editing tools were used to rectify all overshoots and undershoots in line work. Polygon topology rules applied are; must not overlap, must not have gaps and each polygon has only one label.
Completeness:Complete
