Surface expression GDEs are ecosystems that are dependent on the discharge of groundwater on a permanent or intermittent basis to meet all or some of their water requirements so as to maintain their communities of plants and animals, ecological processes and ecosystem services. Surface expression GDE point features include spring wetlands. Information about the location and extent of known and potential GDEs was sourced from expert knowledge,field surveyliterature and existing datasets. This dataset is one of five datasets that describe the distribution of known and potential GDEs across the landscape. The complete set of GDE datasets is: 1. Surface expression GDE points, 2. Surface expression GDE lines, 3. Surface expression GDE areas, 4. Terrestrial GDE areas, 5. Subterranean GDE areas. As the different types of GDEs represent different overlapping layers or cross-sections of the landscape, it is recommended that the datasets be mapped in the order of listing shown above (i.e. surface expression GDE points on top) to maintain logical consistency and assist visualization.Version 1.0 (released October 2012) - mapping covers the whole of QueenslandVersion 1.1 (released May 2013) - updated mapping covers the whole of QueenslandVersion 1.2 doesnot existVersion 1.3 (released July 2015) - updated mapping covers the whole of Queensland and includes significant updates to attributionVersion 1.4 (released December 2015) - no change from version 1.3Version 1.5 (released March 2017) - mapping covering the whole of Queensland improved.Version 1.5.1 (released in May 2018) - mapping attribution revised to update hyperlinks to supporting material delivered via webpages. |
