Location of select environmental restoration projects in Tasmania
This dataset was compiled for the Tasmania's Marine Atlas from published sources and contains the general location of five restoration projects around Tasmania: Angasi oyster (Ostrea andasi), Giant Kelp (Macrocystis pyrifira), seagrass habitat (using Environmentally Friendly Moorings), saltmarsh fish habitat, and wetland restoration. The locations shown do not present the actual restoration sites.
