    This project was set up to obtain vegetation species and abundance information for utilisation in developing new remote sensing techniques for vegetation mapping (PhD Project). The Strzelecki (B. Sparrow) Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.

    In 1986 a one year program to investigate the biota of Coongie Lakes was initiated. The aims were to: identify and document the seasonal changes to the flora and fauna of the Coongie Lakes District, to assess the impacts of human activities and other agencies upon the biota and to make recomendations for the areas effective conservation management. The report by Reid & Gillen 1988 summarises the findings. The biological research of Coongie Lakes continued until 1997 as more funding was received. In 1990 a project to assess the impact of flooding on the districts terrestrial biota was also conducted. Photopoint Site Sheets and a 31/2 inch floppy disc are field with the BioDataStore hardcopy files containing details of photopoint seqences from 1986-1988. It is unknown if these photos or information has been captured electronically. REFERENCE: Reid, J., Gillen, J.S.,1988,The Coongie Lakes Study,Department of Environment and Planning.

    The Marqualpie Land System, in the Innamincka Regional Reserve, was surveyed between 1989 and 1992. This survey was established to produce a baseline of flora and fauna and to look at the habitats in the area. It was surveyed before the development of the area by the Petroleum Industry. The Marqualpie Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.

    Survey was conducted by the Australian New Zealand Exploration Society (ANZES), in conjunction with DENR in 1990 and some follow up visits in 1991 and 1992 (by the South Australian Expedition Group- SEG, and DENR). Methods used approximated standard biological survey methods at that time. Objective was to carry out a site based biological survey of Witjira National Park and some surrounding land to follow on establishment of a series of photopoints in the Park and to provide field experience for a number of organised groups. Repeat Visits to the Mt Crispe Sites caried out as part of rare rodent Survey work have also been added under this project. The Witjira National Park Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.

    Assessment of land use options for the Tallaringa Block was made in 1988. It included photopoint installation for land system mapping and to monitor grazing impact. Biological survey was also undertaken in 1988 and again in 1993. A few photopoints were established in the early stage of rangeland monitoring in South Australia. Photopoints were placed in many of the Park's plant communities, which have collectively enabled the monitoring of these plant communities to evaluate trends in structure and composition as well as fire impacts. The survey's objective was to carry out a vegetation survey as part of an assessment of the conservation value versus potential pastoral value of this large block of Crown Land. This resulted in the proclamation of the area as Tallaringa Conservation Park. The Tallaringa Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.

    Grazing exclosures were established in 1992 to monitor the recovery of Acacia araneosa in response to goat and rabbit grazing. Main objective of survey was to monitor vegetation in Gammon Ranges National Park, with particular emphasis on regeneration and rare and threatened plants after removal of stock in 1982 but still under influence of feral and native animals. This included the survey of several sites using the Biological survey of SA methodology. Results were published by the Nature Conservation Society of South Australia. REFERENCE: C.S. Baulderstone, H.
