This project used remote sensing to provide objective and repeatable data on
rangeland condition for an area of nearly 50,000 km2 in the Marla-Oodnadatta
Soil Conservation District, in northern South Australia. This is the first time
grazing gradient methods have been used to report on rangeland condition at
a regional scale within an operational context. The grazing gradient methodology
will assist rangeland management in South Australia and has the potential to
be applied elsewhere in Australia's rangelands, particularly in areas with similar
landscape types and grazing systems to those of this test region.
