Description

Land system mapping for the pastoral area of Western Australia (Version February 2025). Most mapping is at scale 1:250, 000, except for Wiluna-Meekatharra (1:506, 880). A desktop mapping exercise was carried out in 2007 to update the original 1:1,000,000 CSIRO Kimberley Region surveys to make them suitable for use in 1:100, 000 scale pastoral lease mapping. The Southern Goldfields Rangeland Survey has been incorporated into this dataset in February 2025. The survey program is in progress and some areas are yet to be surveyed. Most surveys are accompanied by a Technical Bulletin report which provides more detailed information. See https://library.dpird.wa.gov.au/tech_bull/ for a list of available reports. For map production purposes, land systems are grouped into Land Types. A standard colour has been assigned to each land type for map production purposes. This data set includes pastoral potential classifications.
