A Nationally Consistent Geomorphic Classification of the Australian Coastal Zone

Geoscience Australia has completed the first phase of an areal map of Australia's coastal geomorphological units. Utilising pre-existing GIS datasets procured from local, state and federal government agencies, this national scale map conforms to a coastal geomorphology classification scheme developed at Geoscience Australia. Phase one consists of a geodatabase containing a series of state wide feature datasets that have been reclassified into the national coastal geomorphology classification scheme.

澳大利亚地球科学局（Geoscience Australia）已完成澳大利亚海岸地貌单元面状制图的第一阶段工作。本次工作利用从地方、州级与联邦政府机构获取的既有地理信息系统（GIS）数据集，所产出的全国尺度地图严格遵循澳大利亚地球科学局制定的海岸地貌分类体系。第一阶段成果包含一个地理数据库，该数据库收录了一系列全州范围的要素数据集，且所有数据集均已重新归类至全国海岸地貌分类方案中。
