Natural areas were identified by combining the National Vegetation Information System Version 4.1 data, and the National Carbon Accounting Forest Cover Version 8 data (after removing areas of plantation forestry).

Plantation forestry areas were removed using three ABARES datasets 'Australia's plantations 2011', the 'Forests of Australia 2008' and the November 2012 version of the 'Catchment Scale Land Use Mapping For Australia'.

Without information on the relative condition of Australia's natural areas, it has only been possible to identify areas into either one of two classes, those that are presumed to be relatively natural, and those that have been highly modified.
