Wet Tropics of Queensland World Heritage Area - boundary (WTMA)

This dataset contains polygon features that represent the zoning classification of lands within the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area, according to the Wet Tropics Management Plan 1998.

This dataset is a working depiction only. For legal confirmation, refer to signed maps held at WTMA.

The World Heritage Area boundary is legally defined by Wet Tropics Management Authority (WTMA) WTQ1 SH1-32 series. (Note: Along the coastline, it shall be low water mark). These maps should be referred to for any legal purposes. This dataset is designed to show the intent of these plans relevant to the current Digital Cadastral Data Base (DCDB). Most lines are derived from DCDB, and other lines derived from 1:50,000 topographical data and other sources.

*Accuracy*
Lines derived from the DCDB were within 1m of the DCDB as at 29/11/2008. Lines that are not derived from the DCDB are approximate only. They were derived from topographic mapping originally, then adjusted to the DCDB in 2002, and then further adjusted as the DCDB was updated since then.

本数据集包含多边形要素，用以表示热带湿地世界遗产地（Wet Tropics World Heritage Area）范围内的土地分区分类，分类依据为1998年版《热带湿地管理计划》（Wet Tropics Management Plan 1998）。

本数据集仅为工作用示意图，如需获得法律层面的确认，请查阅热带湿地管理局（Wet Tropics Management Authority, WTMA）存档的正式签署地图，相关链接为http://www.wettropics.gov.au/boundary-maps。

该世界遗产地的边界由热带湿地管理局（WTMA）发布的WTQ1 SH1-32系列地图进行法律界定（注：沿海岸线区域的边界以低潮线为准）。任何涉及法律用途的场景均应参考上述地图。本数据集旨在呈现与当前数字地籍数据库（Digital Cadastral Data Base, DCDB）相关的计划意图。多数要素线源自DCDB，其余要素线则取自1:5万地形数据及其他数据源。

*精度*
源自DCDB的要素线，截至2008年11月29日，其与原始DCDB的偏差不超过1米。非源自DCDB的要素线仅为近似值：此类线条最初由地形测绘数据生成，2002年已适配至DCDB，后续又随DCDB的更新进行了多次调整。
