Description
Abstract
This layer incorporates a range of information including layers, latitude and longitudes and basin related to water monitoring in Queensland. It was created to provide more efficient access to information on aquatic monitoring programs in line with the aims of the Queensland Integrated Waterways Monitoring Framework
Purpose
The data set was developed to present the water monitoring information spatially on both the Queensland Water Monitoring Portal and the WetlandInfo website. The data was provided by the relative monitoring programs managers through the Department of Natural Resources and Mines.
Supplemental Information
The Queensland waterways monitoring portal provides a single point of access to these tools consistent with the Queensland Integrated Waterways Monitoring Framework.

Logical Consistency Report
The accuracy is variable and based on the various data sets used to develop this layer.
Completeness Report
Due to the number of monitoring programs being initiated or completed at any given time the completeness of the layer will also vary over time. If you are aware of a program not recorded that should be please let us know on wetlands@ehp.qlg.gov.au

Resource purpose/summary
The 2012 extent of mangrove and associated vegetation communities of Moreton Bay Area provides a baseline and historical information for assessment and monitoring.
The mangrove mapping is based on mosaics of high resolution 2012 aerial photography (ecw format) and supported by field survey of 1998 mangrove mapping (Dowling and Stephens, 2001). Linework reproduced at a scale greater than 1:5,000 should be used as a guide only. The positional accuracy of the data, mapped at a scale of 1:5,000, is 5 metres.

Source layer: Queensland Marine Parks - QLD_MARINEPARK
Marine parks are established over tidal lands and waters to protect and conserve special areas while allowing for planned use of marine resources.
Supplemental Information
WARNING NOTE TO ALL USERS: The spatial representation of Great Sandy Marine Park is not included in this version of marine parks as administered by Queensland Parks and Wildlife, Department of Environment and Resource Management.
It is anticipated that the next version of this dataset shall contain the finalised representation of Great Sandy Marine Park.
The rules and restrictions for activities that may be carried out in various marine park zones may differ for the same zone classification in different marine parks. For example, the rules for line fishing in conservation park zones in the Great Barrier Reef Coast Marine Park vary to the rules for line fishing in conservation park zones in the Moreton Bay Marine Park.

Access Constraints
Restricted to within the Department of Environment and Resource Management. View access permitted. Dataset is available for viewing to registered users via web delivery tools, for example, through an access controlled internet site like NAP RIS Portal. The conditions of use are detailed in the data usage agreement, signed between the Custodian and the Recipient. No third party usage is permitted other than indicated in the agreement. Data which is downloaded from the NAP RIS Portal, can only be used for the purpose of project-related work for the client / regional body who downloaded the data. The data is not to be supplied to a third party and also is not to be used for commercial purposes.
Use Constraints
The Environmental Protection Agency recommends that the State Marine Parks data should not be used for decision making purposes when the layer is displayed at scales greater than 1:100000.
While every care is taken to ensure the accuracy of this information, the Department of Environment and Resource Management makes no representations or warranties about its accuracy, reliability, completeness or suitability for any particular purpose and disclaims all responsibility and all liability (including without limitation, liability in negligence) for all expenses, losses, damages (including indirect or consequential damage) and costs which might be incurred as a result of the information being inaccurate or incomplete in any way and for any reason.

Attribute Accuracy
Attribute Accuracy Report
The marine park zone attributes are based on the descriptions found in the Marine Parks (Great Barrier Reef Coast) Zoning Plan 2004 and the Marine Parks (Moreton Bay) Zoning Plan 2008.
Completeness Report
Incomplete. The dataset is incomplete. It anticipated that Great Sandy Marine Park spatial data shall be included in the next version of the dataset.
Positional Accuracy
Horizontal Positional Accuracy
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
The marine park boundaries are based on the descriptions found in Schedule 1 and 2 of the Marine Parks (Declaration) Regulation 2006. The zones within the marine parks are based on the descriptions in the Marine Parks (Great Barrier Reef Coast) Zoning Plan 2004 and the Marine Parks (Moreton Bay) Zoning Plan 2008.
Logical Consistency Report
The three Queensland Marine Parks have different zoning methodologies, designated areas provisions, and zoning plans.
Unrestricted to all levels of government and community. Data is available to all government agencies, community groups and individuals. Dataset is available through physical supply and may be made available via web delivery tools, for example, through DNRME's internet sites. All enquiries from persons outside DNRME should be directed to Geoscience Australia.

Reference to data source to be provided on all products produced using this data.
QLD_STATEBDY_100K_POLY sourced from AUSLIG GEODATA COAST-100K. The coastline component of GEODATA COAST-100K is primarily sourced from the 1:100,000 scale National Topographic Map series produced by AUSLIG. The positions of state and Territory borders were mainly derived from survey coordinate data and the 1:100,000 scale topographic series. NOTE: The use of survey data in GEODATA COAST-100K does not imply that the data are suitable for any legal interpretation of State/Territory borders. See AUSLIG Metadata for further information.
Report
Data quality report, measure description
For the COAST-100K product, completeness was tested by overlaying symbolised plots of the data on the source material and carrying out a visual comparison.
Report
Data quality report, measure description
For the COAST-100K product, logical consistency is a measure of the degree to which data complies with the technical specifications. The data were tested using a mixture of UNIX scripts and ARC/INFO commands which were independent of the production system. Graphical tests were used to check such things as intersections, polygon closure, minimum size of polygons and topological relationships. A full description of the checks on the data, the test procedure, test sample size and the allowable error are provided in the COAST-100K Data User Guide supplied with the data. The primary data source has been NTMS 1:100 000 scale map production material, with supplied survey coordinates from relevant State authorities. Only features listed in the COAST-100K data dictionary have been captured from the map source material.
Report
Data quality report, measure description
For the COAST-100K product, data complies with the following statement of horizontal accuracy: "The summation of errors from all sources results in data with a standard deviation of 50 metres for well defined points". Alternative and equal ways of expressing this error are: Not more than 10% of well-defined points are in error by more than 80 metres; and In the worst case, a well defined point is out of position by 150 metres.
Report
Data quality report, measure description
For the COAST-100K product, attribute accuracy is a measure of the degree to which the attribute values of features agree with the information on the source material. The allowable error in attribute accuracy ranges from 0.5% to 5%, at a 99% confidence level. Where less than 1% of attribute errors are permissible the entire population is tested. Where a less stringent limit is set for allowable errors a random subset of the relevant features in the tile is generally tested. The sample size is determined from statistical tables using the known population size of the relevant feature. A full description of the checks on the data, the test sample size and the allowable error are provided in the COAST-100K Data User Guide supplied with the data.
