CAPAD 2010

During mid-2010 state and territory nature conservation agencies provided information on their terrestrial protected areas. This information was compiled into CAPAD 2010.

CAPAD 2010 figures include interim protected areas. These are land parcels purchased or identified to become protected areas with binding agreements. Most are properties purchased through the National Reserve System Program which have an agreement to establish a protected area and are now in the process of getting formal recognition as a protected area.

GIS data is available via the Discover Information Geographically (DIG) website and access is subject to agreeing to a Departmental license agreement. The information is available in Arc Info or ArcGIS format.
