The Auslig 250k series 1 Topograpic data (Geoscience Australia 2000) was used along with a North West Shelf coastline contour to generate a 0.008 degree grid using the ArcInfo topogrid command.

Finally this grid was projected to a Lambert Conformal Conic projection for use by the model. Conformal projections, ensure that scale is invariant in all directions locally, but large grids/areas will be distorted because of differential 'stretching' of areas across large scales.
