The Tasmanian Estuaries (South East) Marine Habitats 1:25,000 layer depicts marine habitats of nine estuaries (Bryans lagoon, Catamaran River, Cloudy Bay Lagoon, D'Entrecasteaux River, Great Swanport, Little Swanport, Pipeclay Lagoon, Pitt Water and Southport Lagoon) in the south east of Tasmania. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include rocky reef, sand, hard sand and seagrass. The data was collected from November 2004 to September 2005 by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The shallow waters of the estuaries enabled the use of aerial photography, including purpose flown aerial surveys, and satellite imagery as the primary data source. The habitats defined in the imagery were ground truthed in the field with underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data, and a Differential GPS unit. The dataset is intended for the use of fulfilling the coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995 and to support Natural Resource management priorities in the Southern NRM region of Tasmania.

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 Tasmanian Estuaries (South East) Marine Habitats 1:25,000 layer depicts marine habitats of nine estuaries (Bryans lagoon, Catamaran River, Cloudy Bay Lagoon, D'Entrecasteaux River, Great Swanport, Little Swanport, Pipeclay Lagoon, Pitt Water and Southport Lagoon) in the south east of Tasmania. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include rocky reef, sand, hard sand and seagrass. The data was collected from November 2004 to September 2005 by marine researchers at the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute. The shallow waters of the estuaries enabled the use of aerial photography, including purpose flown aerial surveys, and satellite imagery as the primary data source. The habitats defined in the imagery were ground truthed in the field with underwater camera equipment, echo sounder data, and a Differential GPS unit. The dataset is intended for the use of fulfilling the coastal management objectives according to The Living Marine Resources Act 1995 and to support Natural Resource management priorities in the Southern NRM region of Tasmania.

The Orielton Lagoon marine habitat project 1:25000 depicts marine habitats within Orielton Lagoon near Sorell [147d 32m, -42d 47m]. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include Reef, Cobble, Silt and Sand. 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 Bathurst Channel marine habitat layer - 1: 25,000 depicts marine habitats for the entire channel from the inside of the Breaksea Islands to Nixson Point [145d 55m, -43d 18m] to [146d 08m, -43d 21m]. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include silt, silty sand, hard sand and low profile reef. The data was collected in October and November 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 north western Tasmania marine habitat project 1:25000 depicts marine habitats from Robbins Island [144deg 53min, -40deg 44min] to West Head [146deg 43min, -41deg 44min] from the coastline to 1500m from the coastline. The habitat types depicted in the dataset include Reef, Sand, Seagrass, and Cobble. The data was collected through intensive field sampling from February to September 2006 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 (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.
