Created 06/06/2025

Updated 06/06/2025

Dataset of Land Use between June 2000 and June 2007 for the whole of New South Wales. Land use polygons are classified to both NSW classification (LUMAP) and National standards (ALUM, Australian Land Use and Management). The ALUM classification is based upon the modified Baxter and Russell classification and presented according to the specifications contained in Baxter and Russell Classification. The date of the data set is set as the land use occurring at the time the satellite imagery was acquired, which can range from 1999 to 2006. The V2 dataset was updated in May 2011 to include values in the attribute fields of Source, Source Date, Source Scale, Reliability and LU Mapping Date and is ALUM Version 7 compatible.
