As nearly as possible it shows land use in 1999. The dataset is a product of the Queensland Land Use Mapping Program (QLUMP) and was produced by QDNR and M. It is part of a national catchment scale land use mapping project coordinated by the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences and being undertaken by QDNR and M and government agencies in other states and territories.The dataset comprises one digital map in vector format at scales of 1:50,000 in the coastal zone and areas of intensive land uses and 1:100,000 in the pastoral zone and areas of low intensity land uses. Coordinates are geographic referred to the Geocentric Datum of Australia 1994 (GDA94) on the Geodetic Reference System 1980 (GRS80) ellipsoid. The map is a polygon coverage with each polygon having attributes describing land use. Land use is classified according to the Australian Land Use and Management Classification (ALUMC) Version 5, November 2001.

All datasets were in digital format. Additional verbal and written information on land uses and locations was obtained from QDNR and M and QDPI regional staff, land owners and managers as well as field observations and checking. Data capture A range of existing digital datasets containing land use information was acquired and collated from QDNR and M and QDPI spatial data inventories. These were prepared for use in a GIS using ARC/Info and ArcView GIS and ERDAS Imagine image processing software. Existing data from State and Local Government departments and agencies were purchased/acquired as required. Additional information from regional QDNR and M officers, land owners and managers as well as field observations and checking was incorporated at various stages of the data processing sequence. Processing steps Mapping was conducted on a catchment by catchment basis with the 79 catchment datasets for Queensland mosaiced to form a statewide dataset. The following processing steps outline how each of the indivual catchment datasets were derived. Datasets containing baseline land cover (supplied by SLATS), Protected Areas, State Forest and Timber Reserves, plantations, coastal wetlands, reserves (from DCDB) and logged forests were clipped to the extent of the project area. A spatial model was developed and used to integrate the above data sets and produce a preliminary land use image. Pixels were assigned to specific land use classes using a decision matrix. Individual catchments were clipped from the model output dataset and enhanced with additional land use information interpreted primarily from Landsat TM imagery and aerial photography. The DCDB was used to help identify property and land use type boundaries. Polygons were assigned to land use classes according to the Australian Land Use and Management Classification (ALUMC), Version 5, November 2001. This process produced a draft land use raster image. Verification of the draft land use dataset was undertaken by field observation of as much of the study area as practically possible and comparing mapped land use classes with observed land use classes. A laptop computer running ArcView GIS and Geographic Tracker loaded with the draft land use and Landsat TM images, DCDB, roads, towns, drainage and other relevant datasets was connected to a hand held GPS receiver. This provided accurate real-time navigation and mapping capability to facilitate rapid checking and editing of the dataset. Additional edits and information acquired during the fieldwork program were incorporated post field trip and a final raster land use image prepared. The final raster image was converted to a vector coverage and GIS editing (smoothing and elimination of small polygons) performed. The final dataset was checked to ensure compliance with ABARES data quality specifications and an independent validation was undertaken to assess thematic (attribute) accuracy under the ALUM classification. ARC/Info was used to perform topological consistency checks to detect errors in the spatial data structure of the final dataset. These confirmed that all polygons are closed, possess only one label and are topologically related; nodes are formed at the intersection of lines and there is no overshoot, undershoot, unintentionally crossed or duplicated lines. The dataset was visually checked against the final raster image by overlaying and examining for consistency of alignment and presence of any extraneous polygons. Completeness of coverage All spatial and attribute data are complete for the entire dataset. Completeness of classification Land use features were captured from a wide range of source data. Mapping from satellite imagery was generally undertaken to the smallest discrete unit able to be visually interpreted using the visual cues of colour, texture and pattern (approximately 0.25 hectare). Features mapped in the field were generally larger than 1 hectare unless they were considered to be of mappable significance (for example, high impact intensive land uses). Land use information from ancillary datasets was captured at the scale of the source data. The resulting land use dataset therefore contains features at a range of scales and resolutions. To promote consistency in the way land use features are handled and represented, project guidelines specify minimum data resolution standards appropriate to various mapping scales. At a scale of 1:50 000 the surface area of the smallest mapped feature is one hectare and minimum width for linear features is 50 metres. To achieve these standards the dataset was subjected to GIS editing in ARC/Info to smooth rasterised polygon boundaries (using GENERALIZE) and eliminate polygons smaller than the minimum mappable unit (using ELIMINATE). Land use classes were assigned according to the Australian Land Use and Management Classification Version 5, November 2001 (Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences, 2002). Completeness of verification and validation Rrigorous independent validations of most of the catchment datasets were undertaken (see above).
