The Low Head to Swan Island marine habitat project 1:25000 depicts marine habitats from Low Head [146d 17m, -41d 03m] to Swan Island [148d 06m, -40d 44m] from the coastline to 1500m from the coastline. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include Reef, Cobble, Seagrass and Sand. The data was collected through intensive field sampling from August 2007 to May 2008 by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The use of underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data and a Differential GPS unit allowed for the extensive area to be surveyed. The dataset is intended to be used to fulfil coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995.
