Title: Near Shore Seagrass Change 1989-1998
Custodian: EPA
Jurisdiction: South Australia
Landsat imagery was used to map the change in sand and seagrass extents off the coast of South Australia. The increase in the amount of sand is assumed to be at the expense of seagrass and detrial matter.

Geographic bounding box:
The bounding box encloses the maximum extents of the dataset. There may be voids or gaps within the bounding box, depending on the defined coverage of the dataset. Outer bounding rectangle as Latitude/Longitude coordinates based on the WGS84 datum (expressed as both Degrees Minutes Seconds and as decimal Degrees):
- North bounding latitude: 26 00 00.0 S (-26)
