Warnings
NOT TO BE USED FOR NAVIGATION
This KML should only be used as a guide. It is a NON-OFFICAL map created by the e-Atlas for research purposes only.
The original source data for this KML was not designed to operate at the high zoom levels available in Google earth and so the zoning boundaries do not always exactly follow the coastline and island boundaries when zoomed in. This results in some areas showing no zoning but are in fact still in the protected zones.

Warnings
NOT TO BE USED FOR NAVIGATION
This KML should only be used as a guide. It is a NON-OFFICAL map created by the e-Atlas for research purposes only.
The original source data for this KML was not designed to operate at the high zoom levels available in Google earth and so the zoning boundaries do not always exactly follow the coastline and island boundaries when zoomed in. This results in some areas showing no zoning but are in fact still in the protected zones.

Field Descriptions
NAME: (Examples: HP-23-5365, MNP-23-1168). Official name of the protected area.
IUCN: (IA, II, IV, VI). The IUCN protected area category.
* IA: Strict Nature Reserve: protected area managed mainly for science.
* II: National Park: protected area managed mainly for ecosystem protection,
* IV: Habitat / Species Management Area: protected area managed mainly for conservation through management intervention.
* VI: Managed Resource Protected Area: protected area managed mainly for the sustainable use of natural ecosystems
GAZ_AREA: (0 - 3683323). The declared area of a reserve, as opposed to a machine calculated area. It is recorded to the nearest hectare.
GAZ_DATE: (date '2004-04-21'). Date of the original proclamation

Map preparation
This KML was prepared as part of the e-Atlas project by Eric Lawrey at AIMS. This KML shows the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park zoning split into one layer per zoning type (Marine National Park, General Use, etc). This allows each of the zoning types to be controlled (turned on and off or have their transparency adjusted) individually.
See the meta data page for this dataset in the e-Atlas for more information on the original data source
Map Preparation Steps
The bulk of the preparation for this KML was performed using the python script below. Once this was run all the shapefiles (one per zoning type) were loaded into ArcMap as a map and the following steps performed:
The symbology for each layer was copied from the original zoning layer file.
The HTML Popup settings were enabled for each layer to allow feature selection in Google Earth.
A legend was added in Layout view so we would have a legend in Google Earth.
The map was saved as an MXD file and converted to KML using the "Map to KML" tool with a scale of 100000
#
# GBR_GBRMPA_Zoning-2003_KML-prep.py
# 6/7/2010 Eric Lawrey (AIMS)
# This script prepares the original zoning map for KML generation by:
# 1. removing all the unwanted fields (so they don't appear in the KML).
# Note: this could have been also been achieved using an XSL template
# with the HTML popup settings.
# 2. split the shapefile into one per zoning type. This allows each type
# to be a separate layer in the final KML.
# This script requires ArcGIS Desktop 9.3 with python to be installed.
