Statement
Data was generated into a point layer using latitude and longitude coordinates collected on a non-differential GPS. Survey site data was collected to verify the broad scale 1:10,000 benthic mapping being undertaken by DENR in South Australia. Data was collected in 2007 - 2011 via GPS in WGS84 Datum and converted to GDA94 datum using ArcGIS 9.3.1
