Description
Snowy Range is the dominant topographic feature of the area. The range not only forms the boundary between the Huon Valley and Derwent Valley local government areas it also marks the transition from a production forest area to wilderness.
To the east an extensive network of roads service the forest industry in the Huon and Plenty valleys. To the west lies the Tasmanian Wilderness WHA. The Styx valley to the north, once a production forest but now a substantial reserved area, contains some of the largest hardwood trees on the planet.
The design of the Tasmap 1:50 000 Map Series provides a clear and accurate portrayal of topographic information, with symbols and map content giving enhanced depiction of buildings, hill shading and a simplified classification of vegetation.
Each map covers a 30 x 40 kilometre area with a 1 kilometre grid based on the Map Grid of Australia (MGA94) which utilises the Geocentric Datum of Australia 1994 (GDA94). At this scale, 1 millimetre on the map represents 50 metres on the ground.
