Introduction

​

The National Vegetation Classification (NVC) is a phase 2 habitat survey.  The primary aim of an NVC is to classify a narrow habitat type, derived from the botanical community structure within a discrete habitat area, or distinct areas within a complex habitat matrix. 

 

 

When is an NVC needed?

​

The NVC system is used for the following:

​

• Classification of habitat(s) based on community ecology.

• Development of compensatory planting strategies

• Habitat creation, enhancement, and remediation

• Long term management planning
