This is your lucky week Rod, as the CANRI system -
http://www.canri.nsw.gov.au/
went public on Monday.
It is a web-based GIS system that makes available to the
public relevant [environmental and natural resource] information from
16
government agencies.
"The Community Access to Natural Resources Information (CANRI) Program
provides information products tailored for community-based local and
regional
environmental management in New South Wales. It is the first program of
its kind to offer integrated access to maps and other data held at
various Internet sites by a diverse group of natural resource agencies
and other stakeholders.
CANRI is a collaborative initiative involving all NSW natural resource
agencies. The NSW Government has provided nearly $4m
CANRI participating agencies and organisations
NSW Agriculture
NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service
Australian Museum
Office of Information Technology
Environment Protection Authority NSW
NSW Premier's Department
NSW Fisheries
Royal Botanic Gardens Sydney
Land and Property Information NSW
NSW Department of Land and Water Conservation
NSW State Forests
Local Government and Shires Associations
NSW Treasury
NSW Department of Mineral Resources
NSW Department of Urban Affairs and Planning
Murray Darling Basin Commission
The important thing is that it has a page that [I suspect] deals with
all the birds on the NSW bird list. I tried it on the Eastern
Bristlebird - and came up with 4 pages of useful info - so it is a good
resource for people without access to tomes such as HANZAB.
Regards, Laurie.
