This dataset identifies regional ecological linkage axis lines that aim to link patches of remnant vegetation judged to be of regional significance by retaining the best (condition) and/or most contiguous patches available to act as stepping stones for flora and fauna between regionally significant areas. Read the South West Regional Ecological Linkages (SWREL) report for more information on how to interpret the current dataset and on how to use a proximity analysis tool available to the study area.
