Modifications

The marine parks (Queensland) layer used by WetlandSummary is based on the source layers below, with the following modifications:

  • Name is the value of the MARINEPARK field
  • Excluded features where MARINEPARK="void" or empty
  • Fixed 6 invalid geometries
  • Excluded a total of 1,128 features by filtering
  • Dissolved 1,431 source features into 2 marine parks (Queensland)
  • Excluded source field MANAGEMENT because it has too many different dissolved values (text length 256 > 254)
  • Excluded source field ZONE_ID because it has too many different dissolved values (text length 5819 > 254)
  • Excluded source field LOCATION because it has too many different dissolved values (text length 3780 > 254)
  • Excluded source field AREA_SQ_KM because it has no values

WARNING NOTE TO ALL USERS: The spatial representation of Great Sandy Marine Park is not included in this version of marine parks as administered by Queensland Parks and Wildlife, Department of Environment and Resource Management. It is anticipated that the next version of this dataset shall contain the finalised representation of Great Sandy Marine Park. The rules and restrictions for activities that may be carried out in various marine park zones may differ for the same zone classification in different marine parks. For example, the rules for line fishing in conservation park zones in the Great Barrier Reef Coast Marine Park vary to the rules for line fishing in conservation park zones in the Moreton Bay Marine Park.
