For more information see: Breen D.A. and R.P. Avery. (2002). Broad-scale biodiversity assessment of the Manning Shelf marine bioregion. Draft final report for the NSW Marine Parks Authority. Copies of the report may be borrowed from the library: Environment Australia, GPO Box 787, Canberra ACT 2601 Australia. This coverage is intended for use in regional level marine conservation assessment. It was prepared using very low cost techniques (ie. unrectified API) and should not be relied upon for navigation purposes. This represents an historic dataset providing transparency on the 2002 marine park systematic planning process. This product is one of three related datasets used in the assessment process: "NSW Ocean Ecosystems 2002", "NSW Estuarine Ecosystems 2002" & "NSW Marine Habitats 2002" This record describes the environmental classification of nine habitat surrogates (mangrove, seagrass, saltmarsh, subtidal sediment, beach, intertidal rocky shore, subtidal reef and island). The full study also describes classes for each of the five major estuary ecosystems, and the four ocean ecosystems classified by depth. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[149.285396895, -37.6025450557], [154.29516252, -37.6025450557], [154.29516252, -27.6439985291], [149.285396895, -27.6439985291], [149.285396895, -37.6025450557]]]} 149.285396895 154.29516252 -37.6025450557 -27.6439985291 Benthic habitat Benthic physical habitat biota environment oceans SHAPE-ZIP documentDigital DATA ACCESS - This OGC WFS service returns the data (NSW marine habitats 2002) in Shapefile format.
