Aerial photography (Linhof) of penguin colonies was acquired over the Windmill Islands (Eric Woehler).\n\nThe penguin colonies were traced, then digitised (John Cox), and saved as DXF-files.\n\nUsing the ArcView extension 'Register and Transform' (Tom Velthuis), The DXF-files were brought into a GIS and transformed to the appropriate islands.
