About

Basic Spatial Units (BSUs) are the building blocks for consolidating information on ecosystems in a coherent way.

The data

This data collection defines these units and includes the 250 m resolution BSU in GDA94 / Australian Albers (EPSG:3577) projection, the coverage fraction of each pixel of the Ecosystem Accounting Area (EAA), and a ‘terrestrial’ mask derived from the national land use data.
