Is a reconnaissance level survey (1:250,000 scale dataset) covering the Darwin Region broadly describing landform, soils and vegetation. Mapped information describes associated patterns/land systems as distinct from higher resolution mapping. Information is usually interpreted to indicate land capability for a range of land uses and provides a basis for identifying the extent and distribution of land resources for the Darwin Region. (Land System - An area or group of areas throughout which there is a re-recurring pattern of landform, soils and vegetation. Recognised as being an assemblage of Land Units). This spatial dataset was amalgamated within the compilation dataset Land System Surveys of the Northern Part of the Northern Territory.
