Full description
Two shapefiles are contained in this update on the location and extent of Antarctic Specially Protected Areas (ASPAs). The first is a point file (centroids of ASPA locations) and the second is a polygon file showing the spatial extent and boundary of each ASPA. This update builds on the point and polygon files originally provided by Environmental Research and Assessment (2011). The update includes the removal of ASPAs that have been de-designated and new ASPAs that have been designated since 2011. New ASPA boundaries were created from coordinates provided in the management plans.Lineage
