Lineage:

The extent of the 2004 release areas has been decided upon by Australian Federal Government Departments (GA and ITR) in conjunction with the relevant State Government Departments. The 2004 release areas were originally digitally captured in MicroStation (Copyright Bentley Systems Inc.). The latitudes and longitudes of the area polygons were accurately plotted with a geographic co-ordinate system, using the AGD 66 datum.
