The Australian Antarctic Data Centre's topographic GIS data for the Vestfold Hills, Antarctica were originally mapped from aerial photography: refer to the metadata record 'Vestfold Hills Topographic GIS Dataset'. Since then various features have been added to this data. In some cases features have been 'eyed in' as more accurate data were not available. The eyeing in has been done based on advice from Australian Antarctic Division staff and using as a guide sources such as an aerial photograph, a map or a sketch. The data are available for download as part of the Vestfold Hills GIS dataset from a Related URL. The data are formatted according to the SCAR Feature Catalogue (see Related URL). Data that are part of this dataset have Dataset_id = 56 in the SCAR Feature Catalogue format. Dataset_id is an attribute in the attribute table. Data quality information for any feature can be searched for at the Related URL by entering the Qinfo (or Dqi) number of the feature at the 'Search datasets and quality' tab. Qinfo (or Dqi) is an attribute in the attribute table.
