Progress Code: completed Statement: It was not possible to geo-reference oblique photos perfectly. The colony boundaries are less accurate than those derived from vertical aerial photography (eg Vestfolds and Rauers) or ground survey (eg Robinsons). The dataset comprises Adelie penguin colony boundaries at three sites in the vicinity of Stanton Island. Boundaries were derived from oblique aerial photographs taken in the Stanton Island group. The aerial photographs were geo-referenced to AAT coastline polygon data and the boundaries of Adelie penguin colonies were digitised.
