A snapshot of Heard Island data from 1901-2002

The snapshot (originally produced on CD for a conference) was produced by the Australian Antarctic Data Centre for distribution to Heard Island expeditioners in the 2003/2004 season.  The snapshot contained all publicly available data held by the Australian Antarctic Data Centre related to Heard Island at the time of production.  The snapshot also contained all metadata held by the AADC at the time of production.
Furthermore, information is also included from:
AADC's gazetteer
biodiversity database
satellite image archive
gis shapefiles
heard island wilderness reserve management plan
Finally, freely available software needed to browse some of the data are also included.
