The dataset contains a national map of saltmarsh and sparsely vegetated saltmarsh (also known as saltflats) ecosystems produced via a classification of Landsat 8 images.

The map output of this classification and associated map data files are described below:

1. JCU_Australia-saltmarsh-extent_v1-0.tiff: Contains a national map of saltmarsh ecosystems produced via a classification of Landsat 8 images. Pixel value is either 0 (Non Saltmarsh) or 1 (Saltmarsh).

2. JCU_Australia-saltmarsh-probability_v1-0.tiff: Contains the associated probability map associated with the saltmarsh map. Pixel value represents percentage probability with values ranging from 0 – 100 (%).

3. JCU_Australia-saltflat-extent_v1-0.tiff: Contains a national map of saltflats produced via a classification of Landsat 8 images. Pixel value is either 0 (Non Saltflats) or 1 (Saltflats).

4. JCU_Australia-saltflat-probability_v1-0.tiff: Contains the associated probability map associated with the saltflat map. Pixel value represents percentage probability with values ranging from 0 – 100 (%).
