5 minute increments of the GDA94 latitude/longitude graticule

This dataset is a simple polygon layer of rectangular cells aligned to 5 minute increments of the GDA94 latitude/longitude graticule. It is designed for use as an indexing mechanism for point record observations of flora and fauna. The layer covers an area of south-east Australia extending from 139 degrees to 151 degrees 30 minutes EAST and 33 degrees to 42 degrees SOUTH. It thus incorporates substantial areas of South Australia and New South Wales plus all of Bass Strait and the north coast of Tasmania.
