Modifications

The biopassage structures layer used by WetlandSummary is based on the source layers below, with the following modifications:

  • Name is the value of the NAME field
  • Transformed coordinate system of ENVWET.QLD_BIOPASSAGE.shp from GCS_WGS_1984 to GDA94
  • Excluded 1 feature outside of Queensland
  • Dissolved 184 source features into 176 biopassage structures
  • Excluded source field ID because it is a non-string attribute that had different values in its dissolved source features
  • Excluded source field LAT because it is a non-string attribute that had different values in its dissolved source features
  • Excluded source field LONG_ because it is a non-string attribute that had different values in its dissolved source features

Source layer: Queensland Aquatic Fauna Passage Structures

This spatial information is not statutory and does not contain information related to Waterway Barrier works or replace or contribute to development approvals under the Planning Act 2016. The information is representative of functional, completed biopassage structures at the time of publishing. It is not information to assist approvals, approved and completed structures will only go onto this dataset.
Legal constraints; text
Conditions apply. 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.
Resource purpose/summary
This data layer’s purpose is to represent biopassage structures (i.e. fishways) in Queensland as a spatial data source. The points and associated information were collected through the Aquatic Ecosystems/Wetlands Rehabilitation and Research (AEWRR) Working Group and may not be comprehensive at the time of viewing.
Additional human language abstract/description

This dataset contains the approximate location of aquatic fauna passage (biopassage) structures in QLD.
