View the user guide
An updated user guide is available to help support you in using the data. The user guide lists the metadata for each of the online & offline layers, and describes how to use the data including licence agreements & terms of use. The CaBA Data Package is a set of GIS layers suitable for supporting integrated catchment management planning. The datasets in the guide are displayed, interpreted and grouped to help partnerships identify issues and opportunities for collaborative action:
Opportunities – What are the opportunities for action?
Issues – What are the well-known issues?
Characteristics – What are the key characteristics of the catchment?
Causes – What are the potential causes of the problems?
Action – What action is going on already in the catchment?
Monitoring – What additional monitoring is happening in the catchment?
Background Mapping – What basemapping and reference data is available?
