Vegetation Survey of South Australia, Biological Database of South Australia (endemism mapping subset)
This dataset contains records of vascular plant species from the Biological Survey of South Australia. Preparation from raw data obtained via AEKOS involved the selection of data fields, the removal of intraspecific taxa (only genus and species used to define individual taxa) and removal of duplicate records and those not determined to species.

- Purpose
- A georeferenced implementation of weighted endemism. Development of weighted endemism calculations and mapping in the R environment, using alternative methods for estimating species ranges. This dataset was used to test functions and compare the results among methods. Identifying spatial hotspots of vegetation biodiversity, fragmentation and climate sensitivity as conservation targets. A largely empirical project aiming to identify areas (in South Australia) with high biodiversity values and their intersection with threatening processes at regional scales. Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources, South Australia, TERN (Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network).

- Description
- AEKOS Data Portal Extraction: Method: The data was extracted via the AEKOS Data Portal (www.aekos.org.au/home) on 7 July 2014. The entire content of this dataset contains records of vascular plant species from the Biological Survey of South Australia - Vegetation Survey, Biological Database of South Australia. The data were extracted using the following search string: Free Text free text search of '"biological survey"' AND Custodian Organisation is Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources, South Australia. Preparation from raw data involved the selection of data fields, the removal of intraspecific taxa (only genus and species used to define individual taxa) and removal of duplicate records and those not determined to species.
