Horticulture areas in Queensland
This dataset is derived from a subset of QLD_LANDUSE_CURRENT_X11, a product of the Queensland Land Use Mapping Program (QLUMP) produced by the Queensland Government. It incorporates into one polygon the secondary uses of intensive horticulture, seasonal and perennial horticulture and irrigated intensive and perennial horticulture. It presents the most recent mapping of land use features for Queensland, including the land use mapping products from 1999, 2006,2009, 2011, 2012 and 2013 in a single feature layer. This dataset was last updated in June 2014.
A map illustrating the currency of land use is available at http://www.qld.gov.au/environment/land/vegetation/mapping/qlump/.
This dataset is used in conjunction with other datasets in The Cube Globe G20 visualisation project. It helps to provide information on Queensland agriculture through case studies from the horticulture and agriculture industries including fruit and vegetable, sugar and beef exports.
