General - All Scales

This feature refers to offshore islands only.

New features smaller than the minimum size for data capture will be captured as Offshore Rocks with a RELATIONSHIP of Bare.

For Island feature type SYMBOLWAC must not be NULL.

For SYMBOL WAC, islands above the respective minimum size for map representation should be shown with a symbol polygon no draw (thereby being shown as clear space within the ocean). For Islands below the respective minimum size for map representation they should initially be given Offshore Rock symbology with the applicable bathymetric water shading eg 'Offshore Rock 200m to 500m WAC'. Then these Islands below the respective minimum size for map representation should be reviewed for cartographic clutter (eg overlapping symbols, conflict with other marine information of higher cartographic importance such as lighthouses) and if required have their symbology altered to the appropriate Bathymetric shading (eg 'Bathy Area 200m to 500m WAC') to mask the existence of a rock at the assigned scale. When reviewing conflict of Offshore Rock' symbology in the islands feature class against Offshore Rock symbology from the marinehazardpoints feature class, islands feature class symbology should be given precedence due to its representation of a bigger land mass above the tidal line.

General - All Scales

Islands are bounded by Junction, Shoreline and Limit of Data

Islands cannot overlap each other or other polygons in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for the scale 1:1 000 000.

General - All Scales

FrameworkBoundaries (feature class) bound all polygons in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for their applicable scale. For more information on the use of Junction See Section 3 Chapter 5.17.

Junctions will be included in the FrameworkMIL Dataset where they form part of the coastline and will replace the equivalent section of Shoreline. They will also appear in the FrameworkMIL Dataset where they separate two Sea feature types.

Junctions within the FrameworkMIL dataset are generally 3 point lines except where their separate two sea polygons or where more vertices are needed to close the polygon and maintain the correct polygon closing line shape. See Section 3 Chapter 6.9.

Junctions are only used to separate water polygons where there is no physical feature already doing so. They are most commonly used to separate water polygon features with different names.

General - All Scales

Junctions must be bordered by waterbodies in the Waterbodies Dataset or by the sea on one side in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for the appropriate scale.

General - All Scales

FrameworkBoundaries (feature class) bound all polygons in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for their applicable scale. For more information on the use of Junction See Section 3 Chapter 5.17.

Junctions will be included in the FrameworkMIL Dataset where they form part of the coastline and will replace the equivalent section of Shoreline. They will also appear in the FrameworkMIL Dataset where they separate two Sea feature types.

Junctions within the FrameworkMIL dataset are generally 3 point lines except where their separate two sea polygons or where more vertices are needed to close the polygon and maintain the correct polygon closing line shape. See Section 3 Chapter 6.9.

Junctions are only used to separate water polygons where there is no physical feature already doing so. They are most commonly used to separate water polygon features with different names.

General - All Scales

Junctions must be bordered by waterbodies in the Waterbodies Dataset or by the sea on one side in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for the appropriate scale.

General - All Scales

This feature refers to offshore islands only.

For this feature type the minimum size for data capture and map representation of 1562500 sq m is indicative only. A selection of islands between 600000 sq m and 1562500 sq m may also be captured to supplement island chains such as around the Great Barrier Reef. The selection should consider the previous edition map and the ability to interpret the smaller features at the 5 million map scale.

For Island feature type SYMBOL5MIL must not be NULL.

For SYMBOL5MIL, islands should be shown with a symbol polygon no draw (thereby being shown as clear space within the ocean) or 'Non Australian Land Mil'. Then these Islands should be reviewed for cartographic clutter (eg overlapping symbols, conflict with other marine information of higher cartographic importance) and if required have their symbology altered to the appropriate Bathymetric shading (eg 'Bathy Area 200m to 2000m 5MIL') to mask the existence of an island at the assigned scale.

General - All Scales

Islands are bounded by Junction, Shoreline and Limit of Data

Islands cannot overlap each other or other polygons in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for the scale 1:5 000 000.

Junctions will be included in the FrameworkMIL Dataset where they form part of the coastline and will replace the equivalent section of Shoreline. They will also appear in the FrameworkMIL Dataset where they separate two Sea feature types.

Junctions within the FrameworkMIL dataset are generally 3 point lines except where their separate two sea polygons or where more vertices are needed to close the polygon and maintain the correct polygon closing line shape. See Section 3 Chapter 6.9.

Junctions are only used to separate water polygons where there is no physical feature already doing so. They are most commonly used to separate water polygon features with different names.

General - All Scales

This feature refers to offshore islands only.

For this feature type the minimum size for data capture and map representation of 20000000 sq m is indicative only. A selection of islands may also be captured below this size criteria if large populations are situated on the island eg Thursday Island.

For Island feature type SYMBOL10MIL must not be NULL.

For SYMBOL10MIL, islands should be shown with a symbol polygon no draw (thereby being shown as clear space within the ocean) or 'Non Australian Land Mil'. Then these Islands should be reviewed for cartographic clutter (eg overlapping symbols, conflict with other marine information of higher cartographic importance) and if required have their symbology altered to the appropriate Bathymetric shading (eg 'Bathy Area gt 200m 10MIL') to mask the existence of an island at the assigned scale.

General - All Scales

Islands are bounded by Junction, Shoreline and Limit of Data

Islands cannot overlap each other or other polygons in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for the scale 1:10 000 000.

No gaps should exist between the Sea and Island polygons.

FrameworkBoundaries (feature class) bound all polygons in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for their applicable scale. For more information on the use of Junction See Section 3 Chapter 5.17.

Junctions will be included in the FrameworkMIL Dataset where they form part of the coastline and will replace the equivalent section of Shoreline. They will also appear in the FrameworkMIL Dataset where they separate two Sea feature types.

Junctions within the FrameworkMIL dataset are generally 3 point lines except where their separate two sea polygons or where more vertices are needed to close the polygon and maintain the correct polygon closing line shape. See Section 3 Chapter 6.9.

Junctions are only used to separate water polygons where there is no physical feature already doing so. They are most commonly used to separate water polygon features with different names.

General - All Scales

Junctions must be bordered by waterbodies in the Waterbodies Dataset or by the sea on one side in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for the appropriate scale.

General - All Scales

When bounding sea and estuarine areas, the line is indicative of the position of mean high water. The exception is in Mangroves, where the line is indicative of the position of the seaward side of the mangroves.

The coastline of both the mainland and islands is defined by a combination of shoreline and junction. For more information on when junction should be used in precedence to shoreline, see the junction feature type for the framework dataset.

General - All Scales

FrameworkBoundaries (feature class) bound all polygons in the FrameworkMIL Dataset for the applicable scale. For more information on the use of Shoreline See Section 3 Chapter 5.17.
