• Popis: This chapter describes the procedures and outcomes of the floristic-ecological mapping of the Mitchell Plateau and Pantijan areas of the Northern Kimberley region, Western Australia. The protocol is presented comprising a sevečn step process of: setting mapping goals, collecting and collating data, identifying the major ecological drivers of vegetation patterns, setting classification and mapping rules, modelling procedures, verification and presentation. The mapping protocol provides a definitive approach to vegetation mapping at intermediate scales - from 1:50 000 to 1: 250 000. This is the first time that formal vegetation data-analysis tools have been used to classify vegetation of Western Australia.
