Brief description
This consolidated dataset consists of Australian Hydrographic Service (AHS) surveys HI621C, 5135 (Terrestrial), HI364, HI514, and HI607 converted to International Terrestrial Reference Frame 2000 (ITRF2000) horizontal datum with Z conversion values for multiple height datums. The data was provided to the AAD by Paul Digney of Jacobs consulting in February 2021.Included survey datasets:
• HI621C_MAWSON_merged.shp
• HI621C_MAWSON_merged.shp
• Terrestrial_Data_5135
• HI364_HSDB_T0001_SD_100035029_op_soundings
• QC_HI 514 HDCS_FDD_appraised (Mawson Approches)
• HI607.Shp
All data are in horizontal datum ITRF2000 and have been combined into a single ESRI geodatabase feature class titled AHS_Surveys_Mawson_ITRF2000.
Attribute data shows quality information, conversion factors (shift in metres) for multiple datums and the MSL orthometric height:
