Statement: The data set is seen as a relatively accurate “baseline” representing terrestrial vegetation and wetland cover as at 2001/2002. It is intended that an equivalent data set will be created every five years or so for change analysis but this is dependent on resource and budget availability and relevant policy requirements Other Information: Keywords: Biodiversity,Download,Waikato Data Portal,vegetation Topic Category: biota:flora and/or fauna in natural environment Resource Reference Date: 16/05/2013 Metadata Constraints Access Constraints: copyright Use Constraints: license Maintenance Information Maintenance frequency: asNeeded Last Load Date: 26/11/2015 Spatial Representation Information Recommended Scale: 1:10000 Reference System: EPSG2193 Spatial Representation Type: vector Vector Grid Geographic Bounding Box GeometricObjectType : surface geometricObjectCount : 25241 topologyLevel : geometryOnly Number of Dimensions : 2 Cell Geometry : Transformation Param Available : N westBoundLongitude : 1906114.0869 eastBoundLongitude : 1740358.5994 southBoundLatitude : 5706589.687 northBoundLatitude : 5961434.0951 Responsible Parties Role: owner Position: Scientist - Land and Soil Organisation: Waikato Regional Council - Science, Policy and Information Delivery Point: 160 Ward Street City: Hamilton Central Postal Code: 3204 Country: New Zealand Phone: 0800 800 401 Fax: 07 859 0998 Email: inforeq@waikatoregion.govt.nz Role: Position: Organisation: Waikato Regional Council Delivery Point: 160 Ward Street City: Hamilton Central Postal Code: 3204 Country: New Zealand Phone: Fax: Email: Data Constraints Data Access Constraints : copyright Data Use Constraints: license Data Distribution: Unrestricted Licence Type : Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) Licence: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Licence Expiry: Licence Conditions: Under this license you are free to copy, distribute, and adapt the work.

N N LCDB1_NAME The dominant (at least 51% of area) LCDB1 class in a polygon. N N GEN_VEG The general vegetation group (Predominantly Indigenous/Mixed Indigenous and Exotic/Predominantly Exotic/Uncertain or Boggy Pasture) assigned to the polygon by WRC. This is derived by running a nested IF functional attribute query on the LCDB2_NAME attribute. The query expression is recorded in section 4 below. N N WETLAND Is the polygon wetland or not? (Yes/Null) N N MINOR_CLSA A minor LCDB2 class also found within the boundaries of the polygon. N N MINOR_CLSB A second minor LCDB2 class also found within the boundaries of the polygon N N MINOR_CLSC A third minor LCDB2 class also found within the boundaries of the polygon. N N UNCERTAIN1 Indicates if the classifier was uncertain about the classification used, the boundary delineated for the polygon, whether the polygon is wetland or not, or a combination of any of these three things. N N UNCERTAIN2 Indicates if the classifier was uncertain about any, or a combination of any, of the minor classes used. N N COMMENTS Any comments contributed by the classifier. N N CLASS_COR If a polygon was field checked this attribute indicates if the polygon was classified correctly or not. (Yes/No/Uncertain/Can not see/Null) N N BOUND_COR If a polygon was field checked this attribute indicates if the polygon had its boundary delineated correctly or not. (Yes/No/Uncertain/Can not see/Null) N N WETLD_COR If a polygon was field checked this attribute indicates if the polygon had a wetland or not. (Yes/No/Uncertain/Can not see/Null) N N FIELD_COM If a polygon was field checked this attribute allows the field checker to enter any comments if they deemed it necessary. N N PHOTO_1 An oblique photo showing the polygon in question from the field (hyperlink - some polygons only). N N PHOTO1_ID If a photo is taken then this is the ID of the photo. N N PHOTO_EAST1 The NZTM (begins with a 1) or NZMG (begins with a 2) easting of where photo1 was taken from (some photos only). N N PHOTO_NTH1 The NZTM (begins with a 5) or NZMG (begins with a 6) northing of where photo1 was taken from (some photos only). N N PHOTO_2 A second oblique photo showing the polygon in question from the field (hyperlink - some polygons only). N N PHOTO2_ID If a second photo is taken then this is the ID of the photo. N N PHOTO_EAST2 The NZTM (begins with a 1) or NZMG (begins with a 2) easting of where photo2 was taken from (some photos only). N N PHOTO_NTH2 The NZTM (begins with a 5) or NZMG (begins with a 6) northing of where photo2 was taken from (some photos only). N N GEOMETRY N N DISTRICT The district within which that polygon lies (polygons that overlap district boundaries are split by those boundaries although these will ultimately be merged together). N N METADATA The district within which that polygon lies (polygons that overlap district boundaries are split by those boundaries although these will ultimately be merged together). N N LCDB2_RGB RGB based on LCDB2_NAME N N ID The unique identifier for the polygon. N N AREA_HA N N
