| Summary: | Progress Code: completed Adelie colony boundaries at Welch Island were mapped on the 30 Nov 2014 to provide a boundary for the pole camera survey. Subcolonies were mapped by circumnavigating the perimeter on foot while carrying a Garmin GPS (Legend and Etrex30) to record the track. When mapping the perimeter of the subcolonies a buffer distance of approximately 2.5 meters was maintained between the mapper and the breeding birds. This buffer distance was reduced by .5m to between 2m in the final shapefiles. Please refer to the Seabird Conservation Team Data Sharing Policy for use, acknowledgement and availability of data prior to downloading data.
