While the dataset had not been updated for many years, it remained a valuable baseline tool in South Australia for implementing the Wilderness Protection Act 1992 (WP Act), which requires that all land in the state is assessed for its wilderness quality. In late 2022, the Department for Environment and Water (DEW), in partnership with the Parks and Wilderness Council and The Wilderness Society, commissioned the University of Queensland to develop an updated Wilderness Inventory. This study used two refined attributes for identifying wilderness quality: modern industrial levels and habitat area, quality and fragmentation. The outputs of this study include a technical report, spatial datasets (including a metadata file), and a map of the state. environment SA0062407: South Australia 135.866666 135.866666 -29.383333 -29.383333 Biodiveristy Conservation Landscape Wilderness Wilderness inventory datasets (GeoTIFF) documentDigital GeoTIFF Statewide map documentDigital PDF Technical report documentDigital PDF Metadata documentDigital HTML
