The spatial data maps koala populations and habitat for six study areas in the Clarence Valley LGA of New South Wales. The six study areas defined by Council are Coutts Crossing, Shannon Dam, South Grafton, Waterview Heights, Lawrence and Ashby. All are irregular in shape and geographically separate. In terms of approximate area (ha) within each study area, Coutts Crossing is 3619ha , Shannon Dam is 2868ha, South Grafton is 4282ha, Waterview Heights is 9725ha, Lawrence is 7338ha and Ashby is 4230ha. The data maps both ‘Likely koala habitat’ and Occupied koala habitat’ on all lands except NPWS Estate and Forestry Corporation of NSW estate. ‘Likely koala habitat’ occurs where there is greater than 15% dominance of preferred koala food trees. ‘Occupied koala habitat’ is a spatial subset of ‘Likely koala habitat’ where koala populations are currently viable based upon known presence and their generational persistence over time. The maps were produced under the NSW Government's Koala Strategy in collaboration with Clarence Valley Council.
