Vegetation map of Kinchega National Park. VIS_ID 1035

Created 06/06/2025

Updated 06/06/2025

The vegetation of Kinchega National Park in far western NSW was assessed using sampling of 171 full floristic quadrats in 1996-97, stratified by land systems. Fifteen vegetation communities were identified through floristic analysis and described in terms of structure and characteristic species, and 352 species of vascular plants recorded. Mapping was undertaken following ground truthing and interpretation of 1:50,000 scale colour aerial photographs from 1995 and Landsat TM satellite images (30 x 30 m pixels). Polygons were assigned through visual interpretation of detectable vegetation community attributes on aerial photography and remote imagery. The final map was produced at a scale of 1:100,000.
