<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The Statewide Landcover And Trees Study (SLATS) is a scientific monitoring program which monitors, maps and reports on woody vegetation change in Queensland. Since the 1990's and up to the 2017-18 reporting period, SLATS has been monitoring woody vegetation loss due to land clearing, applying a methodology which used Landsat satellite imagery. From 2018 onwards, woody vegetation clearing is mapped using Sentinel-2 imagery. From 2020 onwards, woody vegetation regrowth is mapped and included in this SLATS woody vegetation change product. This dataset shows woody vegetation clearing detected in the 202</SPAN><SPAN>3</SPAN><SPAN>-2</SPAN><SPAN>4</SPAN><SPAN> monitoring period (nominally August 202</SPAN><SPAN>3</SPAN><SPAN> to August 202</SPAN><SPAN>4</SPAN><SPAN>). Woody vegetation regrowth which is not already incorporated into the Woody vegetation extent dataset, and is identifiable from Sentinel-2 imagery up to Aug 202</SPAN><SPAN>4</SPAN><SPAN> is included. Please refer to the 'Additional Information' section below for further information, including attribute field codes.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

SLATS change polygons are attributed based on their Woody change status and replacement class. They are grouped into 3 broad categories - Clearing, Regrowth, and Correction, which can be queried using the "Woody_chg" field. The Correction class is used to make amendments to the Woody vegetation extent data set and transaction summary for reporting.
Attributes describing the SLATS landcover replacement class are identified and described in the fields "Descr" and "Class_desc" as follows:
Clearing (to Pasture, Crop, Settlement, Mine, Infrastructure, Timber Plantation, Partial clearing minor, Partial clearing major - pasture, Partial clearing major - forestry, Missed clearing in the previous era);
Regrowth (from Pasture, Crop, Forestry, Infrastructure, Mining or Settlement);
Correction (Incorrect clearing - Addition to woody extent, Incorrect non-woody vegetation - Addition to woody extent, Incorrect woody vegetation - Subtraction from woody extent).

Consistent methodology: The SLATS change mapping is subject to a quality control procedure for the majority of satellite scenes in the state where clearing activity occurs. Additional moderation and consistency checks are undertaken by a senior remote sensing scientist. Mapping at scene boundaries is edge-matched following a systematic mapping protocol.
