The use of underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data and a Differential GPS unit allowed for the extensive area to be surveyed. The dataset is intended to be used to fulfil coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995.

The habitat types depicted in the dataset include Reef, Cobble, Silt and Sand. The data was collected through intensive field sampling from January to June 2008 by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The use of underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data and a Differential GPS unit allowed for the extensive area to be surveyed. The dataset is intended to be used to fulfil coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995.

The Bathurst Channel bathymetric layer1: 25,000 depicts depth contours for the entire channel from the inside of the Breaksea Islands to Nixson Point [148d 00m, -42d 30m] to [148d 00m, -42d 30m]. The contour intervals are 5m, 10m, 20m, 30m, 40m, 50m. The data was collected through intensive field sampling from by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The use of underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data and a Differential GPS unit allowed for the extensive area to be surveyed. The dataset is intended to be used to fulfil coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995.

The Tasmanian Estuaries (Georges Bay) Marine Habitats 1:25,000 layer depicts marine habitats of one estuary (Georges Bay) near St Helens. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include rocky reef, sand, hard sand and seagrass. The data was collected from November 2004 to March 2005 by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The shallow waters of the estuaries enabled the use of aerial photography and satellite imagery as one of the primary data sources, with habitats below the depth range that imagery could detect determined with underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data, and a Differential GPS unit, This equipment was also used to field check the habitats determined from image interpretation. The dataset is intended to be used to fulfil coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995 and to support Natural Resource management priorities in the Northern NRM region of Tasmania.

The Mercury Passage marine habitat layer1: 25,000 depicts marine habitats from Cape Bougainville [148 00, -42 30] to Schouten Island [148 19, --42 20] from the coastline to the 40 metre depth. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include High profile reef, Medium profile reef, Low profile Reef, Patchy Reef, Sand, Hard Sand, Silty Sand, Silt, Seagrass, Patchy Seagrass, and Sparse Seagrass. The data was collected through intensive field sampling from November 2004 to December 2005 by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The use of underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data and a Differential GPS unit allowed for the extensive area to be surveyed. The dataset is intended to be used to fulfil coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995.

The Mercury Passage marine habitat layer1: 25,000 depicts marine habitats from Marion Bay [147 57'-42 44'] to Lords Bluff [148 00'- -42 30'] from the coastline to the 40 metre depth contour including the complete coastline of Maria Island. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include High profile reef, Medium profile reef, Low profile Reef, Patchy Reef, Sand, Hard Sand, Silty Sand, Silt, Seagrass, Patchy Seagrass, and Sparse Seagrass. The data was collected through intensive field sampling from June 2001 to February 2002 by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The use of underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data and a Differential GPS unit allowed for the extensive area to be surveyed. The dataset is intended to be used to fulfil coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995.

The Moulting Lagoon marine habitat project 1:25000 depicts marine habitats within Moutling Lagoon [148d 11m, -42d 02m] between Swansea and Bicheno on Tasmania's east coast. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include Ruppia, Aquatic Macrophytes, Silt and Seagrass. The data was collected through intensive field sampling in July 2008 by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The use of underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data and a Differential GPS unit allowed for the area to be surveyed. The dataset is intended to be used to fulfil coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995.

The Tasmanian Estuaries (North West) Marine Habitats 1:25,000 layer depicts marine habitats of four estuaries (Montagu River, Duck Bay, Black River and Detention River). The habitat types depicted in the dataset include rocky reef, sand, hard sand and seagrass. The data was collected in April 2005 by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The shallow waters of the estuaries enabled the use of aerial photography imagery as the primary data source. The habitats defined in the imagery required thorough checking in the field via underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data, and a Differential GPS unit to enable field checking of the image interpretation. The dataset is intended to be used to fulfil coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995 and to support Natural Resource management priorities in the Cradle Coast NRM region of Tasmania.
