Native Vegetation Management Benefits - Landscape benefits

Created 06/06/2025

Updated 06/06/2025

Landscape benefits (aka consolidate benefit) mapping highlights areas where conservation of existing vegetation, condition improvement of degraded vegetation, or rehabilitation of cleared areas are most likely to contribute to maintaining and enhancing connectivity across a region This layer is one of four approaches to vegetation management, comprising:

Manage benefits highlights remaining examples of highly cleared vegetation types Improve benefits highlights where remaining examples of highly cleared vegetation types can be improved in condition Restore benefits highlights where to restore highly cleared vegetation types in cleared landscapes Landscape benefits highlights areas that contribute to the connectivity between extant native vegetation. Includes existing vegetation and locations to restore lost linkages
