The Tasmanian land use 2013 spatial data set is produced at catchment scale which is undertaken through the Australian Collaborative Land Use and Management Program (ACLUMP) using standards set out in the 'Guidelines for land use mapping in Australia: principals, procedures and definitions, 4th edition 2011'. Land use is classified by its prime use using a hierarchical structure, Australian Land Use and Management Classification (ALUMC) v7, which allows attribution as broad classes to individual commodities. This produces nationally consistent land use mapping to plan for and achieve productive agriculture and prosperous regional communities. Land use information shows how we use the landscape, whether that is for food production, forestry, nature conservation, water storage or urban development. The data set has been derived through spatial analysis of ancillary data sets, interpretation from imagery (Google Earth and State Orthophoto) and expert knowledge through stakeholder/user workshops. The development of a modelling process to create the data set allows a repeatable process for future iterations of land use mapping. The land use mapping coverage is available for mixed dates at a scale that varies according to the intensity of land use activities and landscape context.
