Background to Measurements The figures provided here are derived from the associated GIS spatial layers from AAS4565 of the medium and heavy disturbance footprint surrounding Casey Research Station at the years 2002, 2008, 2015 and 2018. The footprint mapping used a consistent methodology for digitisation for the years 2002, 2015, and 2018, whereas the year 2008 included ground-truther field measurements. Some variation in the footprint is due to snow cover hiding areas of disturbance. The sources and date of the data used is as follows: • 2018 Casey Heavy Disturbance – digitised by S. Brooks from Worldview-3 imagery, captured 27/1/2018. • 2018 Casey Medium Disturbance – digitised by S. Brooks from Worldview-3 imagery, captured 27/1/2018. • 2015 Casey Heavy Disturbance – digitised by S. Brooks from AAS 5024 UAV-imagery. • 2015 Casey Medium Disturbance – digitised by S. Brooks from AAS 5024 UAV-imagery. • 2008 Casey Heavy Disturbance – produced from data associated with: Brooks, S.T. 2014. Developing a Standardised Approach to Measuring the Environmental Footprint of Antarctic Research Stations. Journal of Environmental Assessment Policy and Management, 16(04), 1450037. • 2008 Casey Medium Disturbance – produced from aerial imagery and field data opportunistically collected in association with: Brooks, S.T. 2014. Developing a Standardised Approach to Measuring the Environmental Footprint of Antarctic Research Stations. Journal of Environmental Assessment Policy and Management, 16(04), 1450037. • 2002 Casey Heavy Disturbance – digitised by S.
