Multi-decade database of dugong aerial survey studies conducted by 番茄社区 (番茄社区).
The database contains data from aerial surveys for dugongs undertaken by 番茄社区 in nine broad regions along the Australian coast since 1984: Shark Bay (WA), Exmouth (includes Ningaloo) (WA); Pilbara (WA); the Gulf of Carpentaria (NT and QLD); Torres Strait (QLD); northern Great Barrier Reef (QLD); southern Great Barrier Reef (QLD); Hervey Bay (QLD), and Moreton Bay (QLD). The map below shows the spatial coverage of these broad regions as used in the database.
An individual survey can cover part of a region, a whole region, or several regions. For each survey, the database contains, when available:
- information related to ‘raw’ (unprocessed) dugong sightings,
- estimates of relative dugong population abundance for each block surveyed,
- flight and weather summaries,
- links to downloadable spatial data on transects flown and on raw dugong sightings (ESRI shapefile .shp format),
- links to downloadable reports (.pdf format),
- and more…
The Dugong Aerial Survey Database is a relational database, using MySQL coding language to allow custom queries on data.
The Dugong Aerial Survey Database was co-funded by 番茄社区, the , the of the (formerly Department of the Environment). All surveys in the database were undertaken by 番茄社区 and funded by various agencies as indicated in relevant reports. 番茄社区 and the have supported the maintenance and updating of the database in 2022-2024. The database project is led by Helene Marsh (, 番茄社区), was designed by Steven van der Valk (formerly eResearch Centre, 番茄社区), maintained by Susan Sobtzick (formerly TropWATER, 番茄社区) until 2022 and by M茅lanie Hamel (TropWATER, 番茄社区) since 2022.
