The primary compartment boundaries for WA were determined by identifying major changes in rock type along the coast and changes in shoreline orientation, while incorporating complete landforms of coastal significance. The primary compartments have then been subdivided to produce secondary and tertiary compartments. This dataset was commissioned by the Department of Planning and compiled by Damara Pty Ltd and the Geological Society of WA. A full report was also prepared to accompany the dataset , published August 2011. Some superficial changes have been made to the dataset since publication of the report in order to amalgamate the data into a nationwide compartment dataset developed by Geoscience Australia. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[112.451046, -35.44967], [129.019969, -35.44967], [129.019969, -9.531095], [112.451046, -9.531095], [112.451046, -35.44967]]]} 112.451046 129.019969 -35.44967 -9.531095 DoT Downloadable Data WA australia coast coastal coastline compartments department of environment department of planning department of transport framework geology landforms marine planning regional risk western australia Landgate SLIP documentDigital Landgate SLIP website.
