The GLM land type data (shapefile format) was originally developed by Department of Natural Resources and Mines (DNRM) based on regional ecosystems mapping and soil information. The data is on the Spatial Information Resource (SIR) database and has been updated by the Queensland Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF) in conjunction with the Department of Environment, Science and Innovation (DESI) and the DNRM.
