383 Hydrographic Charts 1802-2013 Queensland State Archives web@archives.qld.gov.au 2018-04-13T05:37:15.053379 2022-06-28T23:53:48.060056 This series comprises hydrographic charts held at [Queensland State Archives](http://www.archives.qld.gov.au) were prepared by the Harbours and Rivers Department and its successors, as well as the British Admiralty, Royal Navy, Royal Australian Navy and the Australian Hydrographic Service. Initially, hydrographic charts of the [Queensland] coast were published by the British Admiralty, surveys having been undertaken by the Royal Navy. Australia's hydrographic service was subsequently formed on 1 October 1920 as a part of the Royal Australian Navy. The earliest items in this series dating from Flinders' 1802 Chart of Terra Australis, comprise copies of the Admiralty or Royal Navy charts. Details recorded on hydrographic charts include regular water depth, positions and least depth over all shoals, wrecks, reefs, banks, etc, position of the coastline (HW and LW mark), nature of the bottom, leading lines fixed and sounded, tidal stream measurements and observations, navigation marks, lights and sailing directions, details of wrecks, etc. While the series provides an historical survey record of the Queensland coast and major rivers and bays, it includes charts current to year 2010, both new charts and resurveys or updates. In addition to coastal hydrographic charts and charts of bay entrance channels and reach surveys for navigation purposes, the series includes hydrographic survey plans recording improvements or works in progress, for example, dredging, test bores, reclamation, siltation, wharfage or marina proposals. Some land drawings are also included, for example, port land use and facilities. The charts are loose and while the majority are within A1/B1 size, they vary from small foolscap drawings up to 2A0 dimensions. Original drawings are linen, tracing paper or tracing film while copies are generally photo-sensitive film. data.qld.gov.au https://data.qld.gov.au/dataset/5b5e80a7-371b-4365-9280-37dca0f6ed0d     Hydrographic Charts 1802-2013 https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset/5b5e80a7-371b-4365-9280-37dca0f6ed0d/resource/f15c312b-a290-406a-9676-5cdaa11fafa2/download/hydrographic-charts-1802-2013.csv CSV This series comprises hydrographic charts prepared by the Harbours and Rivers Department and its successors, as well as the British Admiralty, Royal Navy, Royal Australian Navy and the Australian Hydrographic Service.

The charts are loose and while the majority are within A1/B1 size, they vary from small foolscap drawings up to 2A0 dimensions. Original drawings are linen, tracing paper or tracing film while copies are generally photo-sensitive film. Charts are arranged geographically in two chronological sequences. Charts up to 1987 are arranged in a numerical sequence and charts from 1987 to 2000 are arranged in an alpha-numerical sequence. These arrangements are listed below under the following headings: numerical sequence commences; alpha-numerical sequence prefix; geographical area. 0001; A prefix; Brisbane River 1986 to 1999 1000; B prefix; SE Queensland Coast, 1987 to 1999 2000; C prefix; Moreton Bay, 1987 to 1999 3000; D prefix; Gold Coast, 1987 to 1999 4000; E prefix; Gold Coast Beaches and Sunshine Coast to Elliott Heads, 1987 to 1999 (but also including content from 1941, 1964 and 1984) 5000; F prefix; Burnett Heads to Port Alma, 1988 to 2000 6000; G prefix; Roslyn Bay to Whitsundays, 1970 to 1999 7000; H prefix; Bowen to Lucinda, 1987 to 1999 8000; J prefix; Mourilyan to Cape Flattery, 1987 to 1999 9000; K prefix; Cape York, Gulf and Torres Strait, 1987 to 1999. Charts with the prefix R are interfiled within the first numerical sequence. 2018-04-13T05:38:49.973132 2022-05-27T02:07:57.880190 4194304.0 Creative Commons Attribution 4.0
