    Abstract

    In support of ongoing improvements of geospatial operations at the Secretariat, this document presents an update to the approach introduced in document WG-ASAM-2022/02. The intent is to set agreed rules to ensure a standardized approach to the generation of georeferenced objects (e.g. strata polygons) for use in CCAMLR activities. Here, while introducing these rules, practical demonstrations are made using the proposed krill management units (SC-CAMLR-41, Fig. 1).
