Description: Priority Agricultural Areas (PAAs)are strategic areas identified on a regional scale that contain significant clusters of what are considered to be the region’s high value, intensive agricultural land uses. Within these areas, these special agricultural land areas will be given additional protection from incompatible resource activities. PAAs have been introduced to protect: proven productive agricultural areas, agricultural land uses with significant infrastructure investment, agricultural land uses that have the potential to be significantly impacted by resource activities and have limited scope to modify their agricultural practices in response to these impacts. The PAAs are prescribed within the Regional Planning Interests Regulation 2014 or within a Regional Plan.
Name: Regional planning interests - priority living area
Display Field: name
Type: Feature Layer
Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon
Description: The identification of Priority Living Areas (PLAs) is intended to provide greater certainty for investment in the development of the region’s urban centres and localities, while still accommodating compatible resource activities to maximise economic development opportunities. PLAs are intended to ensure that the growth potential of these towns, as provided for through a local government planning scheme, are protected from the encroachment of incompatible resource activities. A PLA includes the settlement area (urban residential, business township and mixed use zones and areas for future urban growth), rural residential areas associated with the settlement area, and a two kilometre buffer area around the settlement area. The settlement areas within a PLA include land identified by local governments for long-term urban expansion. However, because not all local governments have comprehensively considered their town growth requirements, and because the growth scenario for a town can change, the boundaries of the PLA shown in Schedule 1 may need to be amended over time. PLAs are proposed to replace existing restricted areas (urban), as gazetted under the Mineral Resources Act 1989in 2011, with the exception of the Toowoomba area within the South East Queensland (SEQ) region. The areas within the SEQ region will be reconsidered as part of the review of the SEQ Regional Plan. The PLAs are prescribed within the Regional Planning Interests Regulation 2014 or within a Regional Plan,

Description: The purpose of regional plan’s is to manage regional growth and change in the most sustainable way to protect and enhance quality of life in the region. This Dataset represents the core land use categories in the Plan. This dataset represents the region’s regional landuse categories, composed of three land use categories: 1) Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area 2) Urban Footprint 3) Rural Living Area. The dataset is produced from the Digital Cadastral Database (DCDB), sourced from Department of Natural Resources and Mines. This includes property parcels, road, railway and watercourse boundaries. Definitions: Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area: is an area that provides important values that help sustain the region socially, economically and environmentally. This area protects the values of this land from encroachment by urban and rural residential development, protects natural assets and regional landscapes, and ensures their sustainable use and management and supports development and economic growth of rural communities and industries. Urban Footprint: Identifies land within which the region’s urban development needs will be met in a way consistent with the goals, elements and strategies of ShapingSEQ. Rural Living Area: Identifies areas for consolidated rural residential development in suitable locations providing for housing and lifestyle choice, while limiting the impact of its inefficient use of land on other values, functions and opportunities in a region. The above descriptions are general only. For further information refer to the each individual regional plan, for more detailed definitions.

Description: On the 14th August 1997 the Federal and Queensland Governments announced measures to save dugongs in the southern Great Barrier Reef and Hervey Bay regions. Central to these measures was the establishment of a system of dugong protection areas in these regions. The Areas are declared in legislation under the Fisheries Act 1994 and the Queensland Nature Conservation Act 1992. Two types of protection areas were established : Zone A has more stringent controls over netting practices. Foreshore set nets and offshore set and drift nets are prohibited in most Zone A protection areas. In Zone B mesh netting is permitted but with restrictions on the type, size and location of nets, and requirements for attendance at nets. Current March 2002.

Description: The essential habitat map is the map certified by the chief executive as the essential habitat map for the State and showing areas of essential habitat. Essential Habitat is vegetation in which a species that is Endangered or Vulnerable under the Nature Conservation Act (1992) has been known to occur. One of the purposes of the Vegetation Management Act 1999 is to regulate vegetation clearing in a way that prevents the loss of biodiversity. To fulfil this obligation, Vegetation Management within Department of Resources uses the essential habitat map as a tool when assessing vegetation clearing applications to assist in determining whether the vegetation is habitat for Endangered or Vulnerable species. This map is also used to identify essential habitat when assessing clearing in regrowth vegetation areas under the various self-assessable codes identified in the Vegetation Management Act 1999.The Biodiversity Assessment Unit (EHP) provides this information to Vegetation Management as digital spatial layers and as hard copy maps. All data is provided at current best standards for the State. Essential habitat was compiled from two primary sources1. Recognised species habitat models These are habitat models such as cassowary, ground parrot, etc that have been developed by experts. Some of the models have been developed from recent recovery planning activity and some come from application of the Biodiversity Assessment and Mapping Methodology (BAMM).2. Endangered and Vulnerable species habitat based on buffered species records. This concept comes from Criteria A of the BAMM. This criterion classifies areas according to their significance based on the presence of Endangered or Vulnerable taxa. For further information refer to the Technical documentation (ehab_v4_0_tech_doc.doc ).
Description: This dataset represents version three of the Nature Conservation (Koala) Conservation Plan 2006 and Management Program 2006-2016 (the Koala Plan). Amendments to the mapping were undertaken to reflect changes in land use zones as displayed in the South East Queensland Regional Plan 2005 - 2026 Regulatory Maps (Amendment 1, October 2006). This dataset shows Koala Habitat Areas which are management areas identified in the Koala Plan; and in the SEQ Regional Plan 2005 - 2026. Koala Habitat Areas are statutory areas identified by the SEQ Regional Plan under the Integrated Planning Act 1997, and are referred to as: Koala Conservation Areas; Koala Sustainability Areas; or Urban Koala Areas. The Koala Living Area, which was removed from the dataset in version 2, has now been reinstated. The Koala Living Area does not form part of the Koala Habitat Area due to its non-statutory planning intent. This dataset should be used together with the Koala Plan document, and this document also provides further detail on Koala Habitat Areas, Koala Conservation Areas, Koala Sustainability Areas, Urban Koala Areas and Koala Living Areas. The Koala Habitat Areas, together with the Koala Living Areas dataset supersedes/replaces the dataset associated with the Interim Guideline: Koalas and Development that was released in June 2005. The dataset for the Interim Guideline superseded/replaced the dataset associated with State Planning Policy 1/05: Conservation of Koalas in South East Queensland, which was released in January 2005. The main purpose of the Koala Conservation Plan component of the Koala Plan is to: promote the continued existence of viable koala populations in the wild; prevent the decline of koala habitats, including providing for the rehabilitation of cleared or disturbed koala habitats; and promote future land use and development that is compatible with the survival of koala populations in the wild. The main purpose of the Koala Management Program component of the Koala Plan is to complement the Koala Conservation Plan, by providing policy direction and management approaches to address key threatening processes to koalas. Combined they form a plan outlining a statutory and policy framework for the purpose of conserving koalas in the wild in Queensland.

Description: The Convention on Wetlands of International Importance was the first modern inter-governmental treaty between nations aiming to conserve natural resources. The signing of the Convention took place in 1971 in the small Iranian town of Ramsar (since then, it has taken the common name of the Ramsar Convention). Australia was the first nation to become a Contracting Party to the Convention. The Convention's broad aims are to halt the worldwide loss of wetlands and to conserve, through wise use and management, those that remain. This requires international cooperation, policy making, capacity building and technology transfer. There are 5 Ramsar sites within Queensland (Administrators are shown in brackets): Moreton Bay (Queensland), Bowling Green Bay (Queensland), Currawinya Lakes (Queensland), Shoalwater and Corio Bays (Queensland/ Commonwealth), Great Sandy (Queensland).

Name: Agricultural Land Audit - important agricultural area
Display Field: area_name
Type: Feature Layer
Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon
Description: This dataset shows areas of Queensland identified by the DAFF Qld Agricultural Land Audit (2013) as being Important Agricultural Areas for the region or at a State wide level. An area is identified by the audit as being important for agriculture if it has all the requirements for agriculture to be successful and sustainable, is part of a critical mass of land with similar characteristics and is strategically significant to the region or the state. The areas shown on this map have been identified by the audit on the basis of advice from regional and industry experts and from synthesis of maps and information on current and potential use of land for the range of agricultural land uses considered by the audit. The information used to derive this map varies in its spatial accuracy and resolution. In recognition of these limitations, the information has been generalised for use in strategic decision-making at the regional level. It is indicative only of broad areas within which land important for agriculture is located. It is recommended that more detailed investigation to map the spatial extent and location of important land would be required before the information is suitable for finer scale decision-making such as in statutory land-use planning.

Description: A taxi service is a demand responsive passenger transport service in a vehicle of no more than 11 seats (excluding the driver). A taxi service licence authorises the holder to provide a taxi service in a specific area subject to certain conditions. A taxi service licence may be leased, sold or otherwise transferred, but only to an appropriately accredited operator. A taxi service can be hailed by members of the public and may stand for hire in dedicated taxi ranks. In 20 taxi service areas in Queensland, legislation prescribes that taxis must have access to a continuously operating dispatch service for the purpose of receiving bookings. This dataset shows these 20 contracted areas in Queensland.
