Adelie Penguin Colonies - Mawson Area and Rookery Islands
Progress Code: completed Statement: The colonies and coastline were digitised and the resulting dxf files were converted to shapefiles and spatially adjusted in ArcGIS 8.3 using the coastline from Australian Antarctic Data Centre GIS datasets 57, 90, 91 and 97.

Two different spatial adjustment techniques were used: Affine transformation using 4 points followed by a small shift or scaling to get the best fit with the coastline. These data have Qinfo = 610. Similarity transformation followed by a small shift or scaling to get the best fit with the coastline. These data have Qinfo = 611. The penguin colony attribute table is populated with the count given in ANARE Research Notes 71. Some islands were not fully mapped. Use coastline data to see which parts of the islands were mapped and which were not. A pdf file was created for each map showing the result of the spatial adjustment in relation to the coastline.
