Key Localities Gully Remediation (NESP TWQ 2.1.4, CSIRO)

An updated version of this dataset is available at https://eatlas.org.au/data/uuid/38b496a3-3fba-42e7-b904-902f68040c85

Key Gully monitoring localities (headcuts and monitoring instrumentation) and outlines of the properties within which they are located. The data in presented in this metadata are part of a larger collection and are intended to be viewed in the context of the project. For further information on the project, view the parent metadata record: Demonstration and evaluation of gully remediation on downstream water quality and agricultural production in GBR rangelands (NESP TWQ 2.1.4, CSIRO)

Methods:

Key Gully Localities were extracted from the 2017 or 2018 RTK GPS surveys for each gully site (see Site_Configuration_and_Survey).

Property Boundaries were generated by extracting polygons from the 2016 Digital Cadastre Database (DCDB) and simplifying to a single polygon. Area in hectares was calculated and appended to polygon attributes.

KMZ’s are exported version of the original ArcGIS shapefiles

Format:

This data collection consists of two shapefiles (zipped) and two equivalent KMZ files with the following names:

NESP_Gully_Key_localities Key gully localities include the RTK GP location of the instrumentation and the RTK GPS location of the nickpoint in the gully headcut rim.

NESP_Gully_Property_Boundaries Boundaries for the properties on which the paired control/treatment gullies are located.

Data Dictionary:

Attributes for Property_Boundaries.shp include property NAME and the area in hectares (AREA_HA).

Attributes for Key Locations include X,Y (MGA94 Z55) and Z (AHD) Timestamp associated when RTK surveyed Type- HEADCUT, INSTR Survey – type of survey and year, APPROX is best guess from Lidar or GoogleEarth Site_Code – short form code for sites where MIV = Minnievale MV = Meadowvale MW = Mount Wickham SB = Strathbogie VP = Virginia Park <T/C> - Treatment/Control

Property – Full name of property Treat_type – Treatment or control
