ACTGOV Wetlands and Bogs ANAE

Wetlands are important for many plants and wildlife in the ACT , as well as water quality for Canberra's drinking water catchment. This d ataset maps location of wetlands in the ACT including our Ramsar wetland (Ginini and Cheyenne Wetland Complex) , Directory of Important Wetlands Australia (DIWA), and ACT High Country B ogs and F ens (Nature Conservation Act 2014). The wetlands are classified using the ANAE Australian National Aquatic Ecosystem Framework by Cowood et al (2017). See Brooks (20 21 ) for the latest ANAE classification framework and method. To view the directory of important wetlands visit: https://www.environment.gov.au/water/wetlands/australian-wetlands-database/directory-important-wetlands More information on wetland conservation can be found at: https://www.act.gov.au/open/act-aquatic-and-riparian-conservation-strategy Fit for purpose: This dataset was captured at 1: 5 ,000 scale. This dataset is fit for use as a tool for showing presence of wetlands in the ACT. Exact boundaries are likely to expand and contract over time so accuracy should be checked against project requirements.
