Commonwealth Bay Artefacts Survey Data, October - December 2002
Entry ID:
cden_artefacts_gis
Summary
Abstract:
These data were collected during an AAD conservation expedition to Mawson's Huts, Cape Denison, Commonwealth Bay, Antarctica in 2002 (October to December). The expedition travelled to Commonwealth Bay on board the Astrolabe (French Antarctic supply ship). An expedition report was written, a large number of photographs were taken, and a large number of artefacts were catalogued. Several GIS shapefiles were created from these data. They are point, line and poygon data showing the location of the artefacts.
