Age and densityof woody vegetation cleared in Southeast Queensland bioregion in 2018–19
Clearing area by density and age classes of woody vegetation.
- Dense vegetation has a Foliage Projective Cover (FPC) of 70-100% (>80% crown cover)
- Mid-dense a FPC of 30-70% (50-80% crown cover)
- Sparse a FPC of 10-30% (20-50% crown cover)
- Very sparse/isolated a FPC of <10% (0.25-20% crown cover).

Regulated vegetation management categoryof woody vegetation cleared in Wet Tropics bioregion in 2018–19
Regulated vegetation management maps show the different vegetation categories that are present on a parcel of land. This information helps land managers determine the type of approval needed for vegetation clearing. The categories are as follows:
- Category A—vegetation that is subject to compliance notices, offsets and voluntary declarations
- Category B—remnant vegetation shown on a regional ecosystem or remnant map as an endangered regional ecosystem, an of concern regional ecosystem or a least concern regional ecosystem
- Category C—high-value regrowth vegetation
- Category R—regrowth watercourse area
- Category X—vegetation that is not generally regulated by the vegetation management laws.
For further information refer to General guide to the vegetation clearing codes.
Vegetation management statusof woody vegetation cleared in Wet Tropics bioregion in 2018–19
The vegetation management status refers to the current remnant extent of a regional ecosystem. The categories are Endangered, Of concern and Least concern.
For further information refer to General guide to the vegetation clearing codes.
Landcover replacement classof woody vegetation cleared in Wet Tropics bioregion in 2018–19
The landcover replacement class is interpreted by Queensland Government Department of Environment and Science scientists as part of the SLATS mapping process. It provides an indication of the purpose for which the vegetation was cleared. Read more about SLATS methodology.

Note: Age estimates should be read as indicative only. SLATS continues to work on refining its age estimation approaches. The current estimates are based largely on data relating to time since cleared derived from SLATS clearing histories, but also includes information derived from time-series analysis of Landsat satellite imagery aimed at detecting disturbance and woody vegetation regrowth. The age estimates use this information where sufficient evidence was available in the time series data. For more information on how the age estimates are derived refer to the SLATS methodology. It is also important to note that woody vegetation that is greater than 15 years is not always considered to be remnant or high value regrowth as additional criteria such as species composition and vegetation height are used to determine remnant or high value regrowth status. This is determined by the Queensland Herbarium as part of the regional ecosystem mapping framework.
