Brief description

Coastal compartments are structural features relating to geological features and landforms that can be used to provide a framework for planning and management of the coastine. The primary compartment boundaries for WA were determined by identifying major changes in rock type along the coast and changes in shoreline orientation, while incorporating complete landforms of coastal significance. The primary compartments have then been subdivided to produce secondary and tertiary compartments. This dataset was commissioned by the Department of Planning and compiled by Damara Pty Ltd and the Geological Society of WA. A full report was also prepared to accompany the dataset , published August 2011. Some superficial changes have been made to the dataset since publication of the report in order to amalgamate the data into a nationwide compartment dataset developed by Geoscience Australia.

Statement: Dataset produced by Damara Pty Ltd and GSWA on behalf of Department of Planning, report (Report 80-02-Rev0) published August 2011. The dataset was revised in July 2014 by the DoT in consultation with Damara and GSWA in order for the dataset to be consistent with a national dataset prepared by GA. Changes to the dataset include a revision of the compartment numbering methodology and inclusion of GA geological descriptions in the data table.
