Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Designated Shipping Areas (GBRMPA)

There are 10 major trading ports along the Great Barrier Reef coast. The waters of most of these ports are within the Great Barrier Reef Region, but not within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.In recognition of the outstanding values of the Great Barrier Reef, there are stringent management arrangements for commercial shipping in the waters of the Great Barrier Reef, which is designated a Particularly Sensitive Sea Area by the International Maritime Organisation. Shipping traffic is confined to Designated Shipping Areas in the Great Barrier Reef Region.This dataset shows the boundaries of the Designated Shipping Areas of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park proclaimed under Section 59 of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Act 1975 (CTH) and described in in Part 10 of Schedule 1 of the Great Barrier Reef Zoning Plan 2003.

大堡礁沿岸共设有10个主要贸易港。其中多数港口的水域位于大堡礁区域范围内，但并不属于大堡礁海洋公园（Great Barrier Reef Marine Park）的管辖范畴。
鉴于大堡礁具有突出的生态价值，国际海事组织（International Maritime Organisation）将其海域划定为特别敏感海域（Particularly Sensitive Sea Area），因此针对该海域内的商业航运制定了严格的管理规制。航运活动仅限在大堡礁区域内的指定航运区（Designated Shipping Areas）内开展。
本数据集展示了依据1975年《大堡礁海洋公园法》（Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Act 1975，澳大利亚联邦（CTH））第59条公布，并在2003年《大堡礁分区规划》（Great Barrier Reef Zoning Plan 2003）附表1第10部分中载明的大堡礁海洋公园指定航运区的边界范围。
