The zone was created by buffering the coastline by 1 km on the seaward side of the island, generally following the escarpment on the interior of the island and buffering the refuges by 200 m to create an approximately 400 m wide corridor to the refuges. Access corridors were also created at the station. The Australian Antarctic Data Centre's topographic data representing coastline, escarpment and refuges was used. In March 2007 the zone was modifed in consultation with Terry Reid, Parks and Wildlife Service, Tasmania. The corridors to the refuges were extended through to the escarpment. The Helicopter Exclusion Zone is shown in a map of the island (see link below). {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[158.75, -54.8], [158.97, -54.8], [158.97, -54.46], [158.75, -54.46], [158.75, -54.8]]]} 158.75 158.97 -54.8 -54.46 AMD AMD-AU CEOS EARTH SCIENCE - HUMAN DIMENSIONS - BOUNDARIES - ADMINISTRATIVE DIVISIONS EARTH SCIENCE - HUMAN DIMENSIONS - INFRASTRUCTURE - BUILDINGS EARTH SCIENCE - HUMAN DIMENSIONS - INFRASTRUCTURE - TRANSPORTATION EXCLUSION GEOGRAPHIC REGION - POLAR GIS HELICOPTER MACQUARIE ISLAND OCEAN - SOUTHERN OCEAN OCEAN - SOUTHERN OCEAN - MACQUARIE ISLAND ZONE Point of truth URL of this metadata record documentDigital Point of truth URL of this metadata record Download Helicopter Exclusion Zone documentDigital Download Helicopter Exclusion Zone SHP Macquarie Island: Helicopter Exclusion Zone map documentDigital Macquarie Island: Helicopter Exclusion Zone map Citation reference for this metadata record and dataset documentDigital Citation reference for this metadata record and dataset
