2.7.1.5 Example 5

Location of Example:	149o20'42" East, 28o31'07" South
Distinctive Characteristics:	The shade shelters that are evenly spaced throughout the feedlots. These are not permanent structures and should not be captured. The effluent settling ponds in proximity to the Intensive Animal Production (IAP) facility.

2.7.1.7 Example 7

Location of Example:	118o00'34" East, 34o29'30" South
Distinctive Characteristics:	Figure 2.7.1.7 shows a free range piggery, where part of the layout is circular to enable groups of pigs to be rotated at minimum stress to the pigs and operators. Shade shelters are visible in each of the paddocks. These are not permanent structures and may be moved over time. A central handling area is present in the hub of the paddocks spread around the circle layout. Access lanes are present, leading to the centre hub of the circular layout and along the centre of the rectangular paddocks

Location of Example:	148o53'45" East, 33o04'48" South
Distinctive Characteristics:	The regularity of the more elongated buildings that appear as rectangular elevated features evident by shadow signature. The absence of settling ponds that are evident with other Intensive Animal Production (IAP) facilities such as piggeries and cattle farms.

2.7.1.9 Example 9

Location of Example:	141o36'53" East, 36o19'22" South
Distinctive Characteristics:	The regularity of the more elongated buildings that appear as rectangular elevated features evident by shadow signature. The absence of settling ponds that are evident with other Intensive Animal Production (IAP) facilities such as piggeries and cattle farms.

2.7.1.10 Example 10

Location of Example:	150o53'32" East, 30o44'26" South
Distinctive Characteristics:	The regularity of the more elongated buildings that appear as rectangular elevated features evident by shadow signature. The absence of settling ponds that are evident with other Intensive Animal Production (IAP) facilities such as piggeries and cattle farms. In Figure 2.7.1.10 cleared/dirt patches are also evident. Cleared/dirt patches do not exhibit any shadow signature and should not be captured mistakenly as a Building. Dirt patches within Poultry Farms could possibly be used for various purposes including; future expansion of the facility, stockpiling, storage of effluent, grains storage or chicken feed storage.
