Metadata details

holme_bay_1_5000_B-W_Islands

All scientific data collected by the Australian Antarctic program (AAp) are eventually described in the Catalogue of Australian Antarctic and Subantarctic Metadata (CAASM). CAASM can be used to search through AAp data descriptions, and it also provides links to access publicly available datasets, which can either be immediately downloaded or obtained from the Australian Antarctic Data Centre (AADC).

    Quality

    The 1:5000 Bechervaise and Welch data were mapped from the following aerial photography;

    - ANTC 1025, run 1 (frames 73 - 103), run 4 (frames 31 - 72) and ANTC 1029, run 2 (frames 86 - 120), run 3 (frames 45 - 85).

    All mapping work was captured using a Zeiss P2 analytical stereo plotter and Microstation version 5 on a Universal Transverse Mercator grid.

    The horizontal mapping accuracy was +/- 8 metres. The vertical mapping accuracy was +/- 5 metres.

    Aero Triangulation adjustment was performed using Bingo.

    The polygon data were edited, cleaned and polygonised using Arc/Info. Maximum fuzzy tolerance for cleaning was 0.01 metres.
