The map classifies the full extent of Christmas Island into vegetation and land cover classes. The dataset contains four attribute fields; - Level 1 classification - Level 2 classification - Mean tree height (Mean_TreeH) - Area (square m) The majority of data was gathered in 2011, with an exception being the rehabilitation boundaries which are up to date as of May 2014. The data represent the best position achievable with the limited resources available during the project's timespan. Geoscience Australia recognises that some data inputs could be improved with additional field checking. The boundaries of cleared areas have been verified in some cases only and may extend into primary, uncleared vegetation in places; ground-truth verification is strongly advised. Consequently, this information should not be relied upon as the sole information source when making operational decisions. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[105.517, -10.583], [105.717, -10.583], [105.717, -10.4], [105.517, -10.4], [105.517, -10.583]]]} 105.517 105.717 -10.583 -10.4 Earth Sciences GIS Dataset Published_External Regional File download documentDigital Download the GIS data (shapefile format) ZIP Unnamed resource documentDigital HTML
