Data Identification

Abstract: Boundary data on about 130 stands of littoral rainforest of State significance and covered by the State Environmental Planning Policy No. 26. SEPP 26 places planning and development controls under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, 1979 over these stands and generally land within 100 mts of the stands. The stand boundaries are illustrated on hard copy maps although digital representation is available. The hard copy maps are the definitive source of the stand boundaries. Coverage extends randomly along, and in the immediate vicinity of the NSW coastline between Fingal Head near the Queensland border and Tuross Head on the South Coast.
Purpose: SEPP 26 seeks to preserve and protect the stands.

Quality

Scope: Dataset
Lineage: The littoral rainforest stands were identified by the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service from LIC colour 1:25000 aerial photography taken in 1986, confirmed by field checking and transferred manually onto LIC 1:25000 topographic map series. The compiled maps were hand digitised using GenaMap GIS software. The ploygons are labelled with the littoral rainforest number plus 'lit' suffix, eg '107 lit'; N.T. (not tagged, not part of littoral rainforest area): 'excluded' (excluded from littoral rainforest area).The positional accuracy of the stand boundaries is considered to be around 25 mts on 1:25000 maps. The boundaries on these maps are defined by the outside edge of the thick black lines which delineate the stand areas. The outer edge was followed in the digital verion. The littoral rainforest delineation was based on their vegetation features as botanical indicators, the criteria for interpretation also included size, shape, species, canopy, integrity, rare species and viability. The littoral rainforests are divided into 5 types, depending on the main tree species present:- (1) riberry, broad-leaved lilly pilly (2) tuckroo, (3) brush box, (4) yellow tulip, bauerella, red olive plum, plum pine (5) lilly pilly,various figs,cabbage palm and plum pine. A mixture of these main types may occur in one patch of littoral rainforest.
