Geoscience Australia has the primary role in the delineation of Australia's domestic and international maritime limits and boundaries. An output of this activity is the development of the Australian Maritime Boundaries (AMB) data. AMB is a GIS data product, replacing AMBIS 2006, providing access to the data for Australia's maritime zones. AMB is a digital representation of Australia's limits and boundaries as established under the Seas and Submerged Lands Act 1973 and associated proclamations. The data also include a representation of the limits by which the scheduled and offshore areas of each of the States and of the Northern Territory are determined under the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006 (OPGGSA). In the event of an inconsistency between AMB data and the limits under any legislation, the latter prevails. The data have been published by Geoscience Australia in consultation with other relevant Commonwealth Government agencies including the Attorney-General's Department, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the Australian Hydrographic Office. AMB data comprise the territorial straight baselines and the outer limits of each zone, together with maritime boundaries determined by treaties between Australia and neighbouring countries. All data coordinates are supplied in the GDA94 datum. The data reflects the location of the coastline within the constraints of available source material at the time of production. AMB Data can also be viewed on-line via AMSIS (http://www.ga.gov.au/marine/jurisdiction/amsis.html). Product Specifications Coverage: Australia including all external territories Currency: May 2014. Coordinates: Geographical Datum: GDA94 (functionally equivalent to WGS84). Format: ESRI Geodatabase and REST web service - free online.

This map has been created to support the Taruman illegal fishing court case, and is part of a map series. It shows recorded positions from Exhibit 14/09/05-1.1 of suspected long lines within Australia's AFZ around Macquarie Island for the 25-26/05/2005. This is not for public distribution.

This map was produced as part of a 2006 series depicting Australian commonwealth fisheries and shows the area of the Prawn Fishery within the Torres Strait Fishery. The series of pdf's are available for public download from AFMA's website and the shapefiles for public download from GA's website.

This map has been created to support the Taruman illegal fishing court case, and is part of a map series. It shows recorded positions (with date and time) of the boat inside the Australian Fishing zone. This is a new edition of the map with the new ship locations added, and without the ship route or longlines displayed.

Map produced for the Australian Fisheries Management Authority showing the position of all apprehensions year to date where those positions were within the territorail sea limit. This map is for internal use by AFMA and is not for general release.

Map produced for the Australian Media and Communication Authority showing the submarine cable protection zones off Sydney on a background of AMSIS data including the bathymetry imagery. This map is only for internal use of ACMA.

The australian Cable Management authority is proposing a protected zone for the SEA-ME-WE3 cable off Perth. The zone is to be one (1) nautical mile buffer from the cable. This map shows the cable and the one nautical mile buffer on a background of two hydrographic charts AUS754 and AUS334. This map is to assist ACMA in their discusions with industry and is not for sale as a separate item ( being part of briefing papers).

The Australian Cable Management Authority is proposing two protected zone for the Southern Cross Cable and the Australia Japan Cable off Sydney. The zone is to be one (1) nautical mile buufer from the cable. This map shows these two cables and the one nautical mile buffer on a background of two hydrographic charts Aus808 and Aus809. This map is to assist the ACMA in their discussions with industry and is not for sale as a separte item ( being part of briefing papers).
