of a geographical coordinate in the description of the area of an exclusion zone in Schedule 1 is to be determined by reference to the Australian Geodetic Datum 1966 (AGD66).

     (2) For convenience in the use of navigational aids, the area of the exclusion zones is also described in Schedule 2 by reference to the World Geodetic Datum 1984 (WGS84).

    (3) In the case of an inconsistency between the coordinates in Schedule 1 and Schedule 2, Schedule 1 takes precedence.

    SCHEDULES

    NOTES:

    (1) The position of a geographical coordinate in the description of the area of the exclusion zones is to be determined by reference to the Australian Geodetic Datum 1966 (AGD66), that is to say, by reference to a spheroid having its centre at the centre of the Earth and a major (equatorial) radius of 6,378,160 metres and a flattening of 1/298.25 and the position of the Johnston Geodetic Station in the Northern Territory of Australia.  That station is to be taken to be situated at Latitude 25°56'54.5515" South and at Longitude 133°12'30.0771" East and to have a ground level of 571.2 metres above the spheroid referred to above.

    (2) For convenience, the coordinates of the exclusion zones are also expressed in Schedule 2 based on the World Geodetic Datum 1984 (WGS84) Reference Frame at the 2005.0 epoch. The geographic coordinates are referenced to the WGS84 reference spheroid having its centre at the centre of the Earth and a major (equatorial) radius of 6,378,137 metres and a flattening of 1/298.257223563.

    (3) In the case of an inconsistency between the coordinates in Schedule 1 and Schedule 2, Schedule 1 takes precedence – see section 6.
