This vegetation dataset covers a rectangle area of the central section of the Upper Murray River Catchment that falls within NSW. The rectangle encompasses Bogandyera Nature Reserve, Clarkes Hill Nature Reserve and Jingellic Nature Reserve. The map was finalised in 2005. There is also another dataset VIS_ID 4196 where this rectangle area of vegetation has been clipped to the three reserve boundaries.
NPWS Snowy Mountains Region, Upper Murray Area had sought tenders for vegetation mapping of these three new reserves in September 2003. The vegetation maps of the reserves were based on the analysis of pre-existing survey data (including Southern Comprehensive Regional Assessment CRAFTI mapping), new survey data acquired as part of this project, aerial photo interpretation, and field and office validation of the results of the air photo interpretation.
The attribute table does not contain textual descriptions so its useability is questionable without a report or look up table.
