Description
Is a floristic survey (1:5,000 scale dataset) describing/mapping vegetation communities for the Cape Arnhem area of the NT. (Vegetation Unit - A reasonably homogeneous part of the land surface, distinct from surrounding terrain with constant properties in landform and vegetation)
This survey was a joint project with the Dhimurru Aboriginal Association to produce floristic and environmental data for Cape Arnhem area.

Data Quality
Lineage:Original linework/vegetation patterns delineated using 1:5,000 colour aerial photography to delineate mapping unit boundaries and site selection, then extensively ground-truthed with topographic basemap/GPS coordinated field survey and site data collection. Resultant verified linework georeferanced to GPS ground control points and 1:25,000 topographic basemap then input into GIS system as ArcInfo vector information and built as a polygon cover. Recompiled and updated to GDA94 as part of ongoing GIS Progarm 2004.
Source data
Aerial photography - 1:5,000 Col
Base map - Australian Topographic Survey Series 1:50,000 AGD66
- Lands/Survey Branch NT 1:25,000 film/base from 1:50,000 ATSS
- Northern Territory Cadastre AGD66
GIS - ArcInfo vector as GDA94
Positional Accuracy:Linework digitised and georeferenced using GPS ground control points. Registration/location information has been derived from topographic base map, NT cadastre and GPS based field survey. The summation of errors from all sources results in data with a standard deviation defined by scale used as +/-20m for well-defined points.
Attribute Accuracy:The accuracy of the attribute information is considered high and conforms to the 'Australian Soil and Land Survey Field Handbook' at time of capture.
Logical Consistency:Dataset topological consistency has been system checked and all classified polygons are closed, nodes are formed at the intersection of lines and there is only one label within each polygon.
