1.3.1 Methods

Summary

The water-dependent asset register described in this report is a list of water-dependent assets identified for the bioregional assessment (BA) of the Galilee subregion. This section details the specific implementation to the Galilee subregion of methods described in the companion submethodology M02 for compiling water-dependent assets (Mount et al., 2015).

The methods covered include: the process of nomination and collation of different groups of assets, the determination of the preliminary assessment extent (PAE) for the Galilee subregion, the approach to determine water dependency based upon multiple lines of evidence (including literature, remote sensing data and available mapping), and the development and compilation of the water-dependent asset register.
