long description
The website developed by the Victorian Steering Committee of Australia on the Map 1606-2006 which incorporated a newly-written narrative describing the early charting of the Victorian coastline. This narrative was based on primary sources, such as the original journals of the navigators and the official logbooks of their vessels, and utilised high-resolution Admiralty charts.
