Australia’s National Wetland Inventory

Australia's National Wetland Inventory is a comprehensive database that collects and shares information about the country's wetlands. Wetlands are vital ecosystems that support a wide range of plants and animals, help with water quality, and mitigate floods. This inventory helps researchers, policymakers, and the public understand the health and distribution of wetlands across Australia. By mapping these areas, it aids in conservation efforts and sustainable management practices, ensuring that these important natural resources are protected for future generations.
