Gwydir River National Park & State Conservation Area Vegetation 2009 - 2012 VIS_ID 4806

Gwydir River National Park and State Conservation Area vegetation mapping was undertaken in various stages by Dr John T. Hunter from 2009 to 2012 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. The Gwydir River National Park consists of: - the Mehi Section (approx.15km east of Bingara) mapped in 2010 with the Noonga Addition being mapped in 2012 - the Munro South Section (approx. 30km east south east of Bingara) mapped in 2011.
The State Recreation Area consists of: - the Sepoy Section (approx. 35km east of Bingara) mapped in 2009 - Salmon and Murchinson Section (approx. 30km east of Bingara) mapped in 2012

The vegetation of the Mehi section of the Gwydir River National Park is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Eight communities are defined. The vegetation of the Noonga section of the Gwydir River National Park is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Three communities are defined.

The vegetation of the Munro South section of the Gwydir River National Park is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Six communities are defined.

The vegetation of the Sepoy section of the Gwydir River SCA is described and mapped (scale 1:50 000). Five communities are defined.

The vegetation of the Salmon and Murchison sections of the Gwydir River SCA is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000) based on SPOT imagery. Seven communities are defined.

All communities were defined based on classification (Kulczynski association) and mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform.
