As part of Phase Two of the National Landcare Program (NLP) the Australian Government's natural resource management (NRM) investments will be delivered within NLP Management Units. The NLP Management Units dataset is maintained for the purpose of authoritative reporting on the Australian Government's NRM investments. It is designed to cover all Australian territory where Australian Government funded NRM investments might be delivered. <\/SPAN><\/P>

This dataset should not be used to represent legal boundaries (notwithstanding that some boundaries are defined by legislation in some states and territories). It is an administrative dataset developed for the purpose of reporting and public information. Alterations to either the attribution or boundaries of the data may occur in the future, for example to accord with changes to NRM delivery arrangements or to reflect revisions of state/territory regional boundaries.<\/SPAN><\/P>

Current Version<\/SPAN><\/P>

The 2020 version NLP Management Units dataset contains 58 separate mapping objects. These comprise:56 mainland Management Units. A separate object for Lord Howe Island (part of North Coast, NSW Management Unit) A \"Marine NRM\" Management Unit which combines Australia's Territorial Sea (from 3 nautical miles to 12 nautical miles) and Australia's Exclusive Economic Zone (to 200 nautical miles). It excludes coastal waters (to 3 nautical miles) which are part of the terrestrial NLP Management Units. It also excludes Ashmore & Cartier Islands, Australian Antarctic Territory, Christmas Island, Cocos & Keeling Islands, Macquarie Island, Heard & MacDonald Islands and Norfolk Island, and those parts of Australia's Territorial Sea and Exclusive Economic Zone that surround these locations.<\/SPAN><\/P>

The 2020 version was derived from the former NRM regions series (latest version was 2020), originally established in 2006 as the \"Natural Heritage Trust II (NHT2) Region Boundaries\" dataset. No changes to the spatial alignment of terrestrial region boundaries was made in transitioning from NRM regions to NLP Management Units. <\/SPAN><\/P>

The 2020 version updates the previous version (2017) with changes to boundaries of South Australian NRM Regions to align with new regional landscape boundaries (https://data.sa.gov.au/data/dataset/landscapes-sa-boundaries) under the Landscapes South Australia Act 2019 (SA) Act which replaced the Natural Resources Management Act 2004 (SA) Act. Minor edits were made to remove gaps, slivers and overlaps so the new SA boundaries aligned with non-SA NRM Regions. The \"Hills and Fleurieu\" and \"Green Adelaide\" Landscapes SA boundaries were merged to form the single 4010 \"Adelaide and Mount Lofty Ranges\" NRM Region, although at the request of the data owner, the internal boundaries were retained within this NRM region. <\/SPAN> <\/SPAN>Additionally a number of gaps and overlaps in the Western Australia NRM regions were fixed. <\/SPAN><\/P>

The principle data fields in the 2020 version dataset are:<\/SPAN><\/P>

Previous Versions<\/SPAN><\/P>

The 2017 version updated the previous version (2016 version 2) with changes to region boundaries in Western Australia and NRM names in Qld, Tas and WA. The 2017 version also removed the NRM_BODY data (added for 2016 version 2) and the non-spatial OceanWatch map label previously included. <\/SPAN><\/P>

The 2016 version 2 updated the marine portion of the NRM regions to be consistent with the current (2015) Australian Maritime Boundaries Information System (AMBIS) coastal water limit boundary. It also included a new four digit unique NRM_ID field for sorting purposes.<\/SPAN><\/P>

The 2016 version 2 maintained definitions established in the 2015 version, including for the Peel-Harvey NRM region and for the OceanWatch Australia Limited NRM organisation (not spatially defined). It also maintained changes made in earlier versions including: the 2014 changes in NSW from Catchment Management Authorities (CMA) to Local Land Service areas; and the 2012 update/formalisation of the 2010 dataset (which was an interim update of the NRM Regions 2009 dataset, released Feb 2009). <\/SPAN><\/P>

The original base layer version of this dataset was released in 2006 as the Natural Heritage Trust II (NHT2) Region Boundaries dataset.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>", "summary": "NLP Management Units", "title": "National Landcare Program Management Units 2020", "tags": [ "BOUNDARIES Administrative_Management", "BOUNDARIES Administrative_Conservation" ], "type": "", "typeKeywords": [], "thumbnail": "", "url": "", "minScale": 500000, "maxScale": 50000, "spatialReference": "", "accessInformation": "The Management Unit boundaries draw on spatial information from state and territory government agencies data and other sources.", "licenseInfo": "" }
