Land Units Annitowa

This spatial dataset describes the land resources of Annitowa Station, located 400km north east of Alice Springs and occupying an area of 4300 km2. Annitowa has been mapped into twenty-eight land units at a scale of 1:100,000 on the basis of the stereo-interpretation of aerial photographs and extensive on-ground survey. Each land unit has a distinctive set of characteristics - including soil and vegetation type, grazing characteristics, stocking capacity and erosion hazard. The associated report also provides a detailed description of each land unit and its pastoral management features, as well as information on the physical environment. The original survey was undertaken in 1993 at a mapping scale of 1:100,000. Core attributes describing the land units were added to the spatial dataset in November 2013.
