Data showing the extent of modification of major vegetation groups (as assessed by Vegetation, Assets, States & Transitions (VAST)). Data includes the extent of major vegetation groups (in million hectares) prior to 1750; and the extent of modification these groups have undergone, since 1750.

Analysed data was prepared by the Australian Government Department of Environment and Energy using NVIS 4.1 & data from ABARES (Vegetation Assets, States and Transitions dataset).

The data has been used by the Department of Environment and Energy to produce Figure LAN30 in the Land theme of Australia State of the Environment 2016, available at https://soe.environment.gov.au/theme/land/topic/2016/vegetation-0#land-figure-LAN30
