Structural Vegetation mapping covering the NSW portion of the Murray Darling Basin. Mapped using visual interpretation of Landsat TM satellite images (bands 2, 3, 4 and 5) from 1989 to 1991. Attribute mapping includes genus and species information. Scale of use = 1:100 000. The Vegetation group and density data mapping was developed as part of a larger MDBC project named BasinCare (project code M305). The specification is described in a report entitled Structural Vegetation Data: a specifications manual for the Murray-Darling Basin Project M305 by Kim Ritman (See additional Metadata). The entire project was undertaken by a number of State and Commonwealth agencies on behalf of the MDBC. The data produced by the project contains information about woody vegetation. It contains woody vegetation attributes including density, genus, species and growth form for overstorey and understorey vegetation. ANZNS0208000072 VIS_ID 917
