Description
Summary:This record describes GIS polygon data (a shapefile) representing the boundaries of Antarctic Specially Protected Areas (ASPAs) and an Antarctic Specially Managed Area (ASMA) in the Australian Antarctic Territory for which Australia was the proponent or co-proponent. Also included is the boundary of ASPA 168 for which China was the proponent. The following is a list of the ASPAs and ASMA: ASPA 101 Taylor Rookery ASPA 102 Rookery Islands ASPA 103 Ardery Island and Odbert Island ASPA 135 North-east Bailey Peninsula ASPA 136 Clark Peninsula ASPA 143 Marine Plain ASPA 160 Frazier Islands ASPA 162 Mawson's Huts ASPA 164 Scullin and Murray Monoliths ASPA 167 Hawker Island ASPA 168 Mt Harding ASPA 169 Amanda Bay ASPA 174 Stornes ASMA 6 Larsemann Hills The data is available from a link in this metadata record and also, as a separate shapefile for each ASPA or ASMA, from the Antarctic Treaty Secretariat's Antarctic Protected Areas Database (see related url). GIS data representing the boundaries of other ASPAs and ASMAs is also available from the Antarctic Treaty Secretariat's Antarctic Protected Areas Database.
