The CDC provides information on the conservation status
and locations (occurrences records) of species and ecological communities
at risk. We also maintain the Big Tree Register
Two new Ministry web applications enable access
to CDC data. An Internet Map Service (IMS) allows you to view our
occurrence data on-line. The Land Resource Information
Service will soon let you download a complete copy of our occurrence
data.
