Key Biodiversity Areas

dataset: KEY_BIODIVERSITY_AREAS
Key Biodiversity Areas dataset shows Australian places of global significance for the conservation of birds and other wildlife which must meet strict, international scientific criteria. This dataset has been updated as of March 2022 to ensure all boundaries are clean of overlaps and slivers and all Key Biodiversity Areas are displayed as single features rather than multi-part polygons. There are 334 KBAs in this dataset. Visit https://www.birdlife.org.au/projects/KBA for more info.
