This is the data package for the indicator expected survival of all known species, supporting the NSW biodiversity outlook report 2024 and Expected survival of all known species: Report card for the NSW Biodiversity Program 2024. This data package reports on results for selected years between 2007 and 2020 (depending on biological group).

This data package is a snapshot of the data used to calculate indicators as reported in the NSW biodiversity outlook report 2024 and supporting report cards.

Expected survival of all known species indicator

This indicator reports on the likely long-term survival of all species, within a biological group, known to occur naturally in New South Wales. This includes species that have been formally assessed for risk of extinction and listed as threatened or extinct in New South Wales, as well as those species that have not been formally assessed for extinction risk in New South Wales.

NSW Biodiversity Indicator Program

The Biodiversity Indicator Program reports on the state and trends over time of biodiversity and ecological integrity in New South Wales. The program was established by the Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016. We have developed a framework of indicators to help scientists, managers and policy-makers understand the current state of biodiversity, how it has changed from the past, and how it is likely to change in the future.

NSW biodiversity outlook report

The NSW biodiversity outlook report is a summary of the state of biodiversity and ecological integrity in New South Wales. It is based on rigorous science and has been peer reviewed by recognised experts. New reports are published from time to time as data become available and are analysed. Each report covers the set of indicators from the framework that have been developed and are ready for publication at that time.

Report cards

Report cards are stand-alone documents that provide more detailed indicator results and commentary than the biodiversity outlook report.

Implementation reports

Implementation reports describe in technical detail how indicators are calculated. In combination with the corresponding data package, indicator results can be replicated by anyone with sufficient technical expertise.

Data packages

Each data package consists of tabular results and raw output such as spatial layers. Data packages provide supporting information for the NSW biodiversity outlook report and associated report cards. Data packages reflect results as presented in their corresponding report card and outlook report, creating an archive of the indicator results at the time of analysis.
