HSA Systems, on behalf of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority - GBRMPA, has produced a digital series of the authorities Marine Park Zoning Maps called the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority Raster Zoning Charts - GBRMPA RZC.

The Commonwealth Government of Australia, through the GBRMPA, has impalement a new protection regime for the Great Barrier Reef through the Representative Areas Program which is effective from July 1 2004.

The advantage of the digital chart product is the ability for the mariner to monitor their vessels position and progress accurately and in real time when used in conjunction with an Electronic Chart System (ECS) and Global Positioning System (GPS).

This enables the user to confidently be aware of their location in relation to the Marine Park Zone boundaries and avoid encroaching into restricted areas.
