The Sandy desert survey is part of the Biological Survey of SA programme run by the Biological Survey & Monitoring group in DEH. Generally standard methodology used. Survey areas defined in a DEH spatial layer managed by DEH Environmental Information Group. A modified standard Biological Survey methodology, Vegetation Mapping methodology, was used during this project at sites identified by the label prefix 'VMS'. At Vegetation Mapping Sites the dominant overstorey and understorey plant species and perennial plant species with a Braun-Blanquet cover abundance score greater than 1 were recorded. Plant height data were not recorded. Either a subset of the complete physical dataset (such as slope, aspect and landform) or no physical data were recorded. The Sandy Desert Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.
