Description: Environmental Areas and Corridors Overlay (dataset 1 of 4, Environmental Areas)Moreton Bay Regional Council Planning Scheme - www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/mbrcplanningscheme/Caboolture West and North Lakes are to be Masked Out when using for Planning Scheme Maps.This dataset has been created as part of the Green Infrastructure Network (GIN) Strategy. There are four categories in this dataset, sometimes referred to as Vegetation Classes. The Vegetation classes were created as part of a complex methodology which combines portions of many different datasets into different classes, with exception rules applied and also over 1000 manual edits, including removing Veg Class or upgrading or downgrading Veg Class as a result of Ground Truthing, Councillor Workshops, Visual Analysis by Environmental Planners or feedback from other planners to accomodate planning intents for an area. Class 3 and 4 are no longer part of the Planning Scheme Overlay Dataset, Refer to Green Infrastructure Strategy Mapping for Class 3 and Class 4.The main additional areas covered in Class 1 that are not necessarily protected by existing State Mapping is Riparian Buffers that are also affected by Unacceptable Flood Risk, these areas may or may not have existing vegetation. Sometimes they are characterised by wetland habitats not obvious from imagery, other times they may be areas which may be targeted for Riparian Revegetation to achieve water quality objectives for Moreton Bay set out in Total Water Cycle Management plan.Key contact people involved in developing the mapping for Green Infrastructure Network Strategy: Bernadette May, Erin Porter, Lan Wang (GIS), Curt Ahlberg (GIS).The Methodology can be accessed on the MBRC Document Management System RIO, click hyperlinks below.Class 1 (A8339914)Class 2 (A8339920)A Geoprocessing Model has been built for the creation and maintanance of this dataset, the model allows input datasets to be substituted with newer versions (eg. new RE mapping from state), the model also allows future manual edits to be rolled in and processed, the model also documents the geoprocessing steps used for data cleansing, including removal of small fragments, holes and slithers. Documentation for Geoprocessing Model can be accessed here: (Link to be provided).Classes were assigned differently within Environmental Corridors (Second Dataset), the methodology used for within Environmental Corridors can be found here (A8420618)The hundreds of manual edits that were applied in 2013 and 2014 are documented here: fA264009 here fA382924here fA399615here fA408026and here fA443854, also on Hard copy maps yet to be scanned in for reference (RIO link to be provided). Spatial files that represent a Class removal or Upgrade are saved in following datasets (see their respective Metadata for more information):MAINT_GIN_Class1ManualAddsMAINT_GIN_Class1ManualRemoveMAINT_GIN_Class2ManualAddsMAINT_GIN_Class2ManualRemoveBelow is a brief summary table of the classes.ClassEnvironmental values definition Summary statement1Exceptional value plant communities;Habitats for priority species (including locally declining habitats and plant communities);Waterways, wetlands, riparian lands and buffer areas of significant influence;Protected area estate and lands conserved by statutory covenant, including managed environmental offsetsClass 1 contains exceptional value plant communities and priority species habitats which will not withstand translocation via offsets as they are either too fragile or are at risk of regional extinction or are protected in perpetuity by a statute. Class 1 includes wetlands, riparian rainforests, protected areas and very high functioning buffers. Class 1 may be considered the ‘load bearing’dataset of the networkas it provides a reliable spatial structure around which the rest of the green network is developed.2Areas of high ecological significance;Habitats for priority species (including locally declining habitats and plant communities)Coastal and wetland buffer areas of influence;Large habitat treesClass 2 represents very high environmental values and includes areas of high ecological significance and habitats for priority species. The dataset is frequently found where there is likely to be significant conflict between environmental values and potential development and where development provides an overwhelming argument for precedence. The environmental values of Class 2 may be offset, in the knowledge broader green infrastructure network across the region will benefit. Here is a table of performance outcomes for the different classes.Native VegetationPerformance OutcomeClearingNo GoLimited GoGo Class 1No native vegetation clearing XClass 2Net gain in native vegetationXStandard Overlay Attribute Fields have been added as part of the Queensland Planning Provisions Guidelines Ver 4: www.dsdip.qld.gov.au/statewide-planning/queensland-planning-provisions.htmlThese include:LGA_CODE (based on cadastre supplied by DNRM)5010CAT_DESC (describe a category for the overlay, existing or unique)Environment CategoryOVL_CAT (specify a three letter code for the overlay category, existing or unique)ENVOVL2_DESC (describe the new identified theme)Class 1Class 2a – Native vegetation compensatory plantingClass 2b – Koala tree compensatory plantingOVL2_CAT (specify a new seven character unique code for the theme)ENV_VC1ENV_V2AENV_V2B===================================Please refer to the current Green Infrastructure Strategy for latest information, a draft copy can be accessed here:http://www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/uploadedFiles/moretonbay/development/planning/Draft-Green-Infrastructure-Strategy.pdf
