Knowledge of land use and land use change enables provision of better services to ensure NSW communities will thrive. Land use is classified according to the national standards established by the <a href="https://www.agriculture.gov.au/abares/aclump/land-use/" title="ACLUMP">Australian Collaborative Land Use and Management Program - ACLUMP</a> . Land use maps contain some known limitations, for example, in some areas mapping has occurred at a larger scale due to resource constraints, resulting in less accurate land use information. Currently, updates to the map are performed on an ad-hoc basis as project funding becomes available. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[140.88867, -37.71859], [140.88867, -27.91677], [153.98438, -27.91677], [153.98438, -37.71859], [140.88867, -37.71859]]]} 140.88867 153.98438 -37.71859 -27.91677 ACLUM ACLUMP Australian Collaborative Land Use Mapping Program Cropping Horticulture Land Use Landuse Modelling Pasture Planning Plantation Renewable State-wide Statewide Strategic Agricultural Land Strategic Planning land-use land-use and management practices landuse spatial modelling statewide Data Quality Statement documentDigital PDF
