Mapping environmental characteristics important for Reef water quality

Environmental characteristics mapping for the Wet Tropics, Burdekin, and Mackay-Whitsunday priority catchments was completed in 2011-12, and for the Burnett-Mary priority catchments in 2019. This mapping aimed at identifying landscapes predisposed to contribute to water quality decline in the Great Barrier Reef. Maps, spatial data and guides on how to interpret the maps were developed. The mapping methodology and user guides are contained in this publication set.
