Cape Byron SCA and Arakwal National Park Vegetation Mapping, pre-1750. VIS_ID 3805

The pre-1750 vegetation of the study area (Cape Byron State Conservation Area & Arakwal National Park) was estimated and mapped to the level of subformation where possible. A preliminary map was derived from mapping extant remnant subformations in areas with little or no evidence of modern anthropogenic disturbance, and the extrapolation of derived subformations to more disturbed areas with similar environmental characteristics (ie; soil, aspect, elevation and drainage). The derived subformation distributions were then refined using a variety of methods, including historical API. VIS_ID 3805.
