There are currently twenty (20) Australian areas describing Priority Places under the Threatened Species Action Plan. These places have been created using a number of datasets.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

The current (2022) version of Threatened Species Action Plan Priority Places includes the following places. For each place the data source is mentioned noting many required fuzzy boundaries using buffering and smoothing of boundaries was carried out. Fuzzy boundaries were required as the dataset is and has been used to consult with various stakeholders while recognizing that threatened species rarely keep within hard boundaries on a map.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>
