Dataset History

Catchment area for the main rivers and their main tributaries within the Hunter subregion. Areas were reported in a table in the context statement and were calculated from the shapefile:

Hunter_Major_Tributaries_Projected.shp

The shapefile was derived for the Hunter catchments shapefile by aggregating selected catchments (listed below) and then projected according to the following information.

PROJCS["GDA_1994_Albers",GEOGCS["GCS_GDA_1994",DATUM["D_GDA_1994",SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]],PROJECTION["Albers"],PARAMETER["False_Easting",0.0],PARAMETER["False_Northing",0.0],PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",132.0],PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_1",-18.0],PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_2",-36.0],PARAMETER["Latitude_Of_Origin",0.0],UNIT["Meter",1.0]] the following
