Vegetation Significance

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

This dataset is a polygon representation of the significance of the vegetation communities within the coastal strip of the Northern and Southern National Resource Management (NRM) Regions of Tasmania. It has been developed as a management tool and is derived from the Vegetation layer. Each polygon represents a the significance of a single vegetation community based on the conservation status of that community. Vegetation communities were identified to a 1ha resolution or to 0.25ha where a threatened vegetation community was suspected. This dataset is part of the NRM Coastal Values Project. The Project maps vegetation, fauna habitat and geomorphology from High Water mark to 100 metres inland for part of the coastline of the Southern and Northern NRM Regions of Tasmania. The purpose of the coastal values mapping is to provide an easily accessible database on vegetation and geomorphology to support better strategic planning, land use planning and management on the coast.
