This record holds, GIS layers that contains poly-lines and point features that represent the maritime boundaries of the Fiji Islands. This includes a gazetted polyline representing the 200 nautical mile Exclusive Economic Zone over which Fiji has sovereign rights, for the purposes of exploring and exploiting, conserving and managing the natural resources of the seabed, subsoil and superjacent waters. Included here are point shapes representing the archipelagic straight baselines (base points) for Fiji,Rotuma and Ceva I Ra.

The report gives details and preliminary findings of a scientific cruise undertaken on R/V Melville in 2006 within the Lau Basin of Fiji as part of the Ridge 2000 programme. The cruise involved biological, geological, and chemical studies of hydrothermal systems in the Lau Basin and multibeam mapping of the sea floor. A copy of the cruise report can be downloaded by selecting the appropriate link under 'Online resources'.

In October, 1992, a SEAFRAME (Sea Level Fine Resolution Acoustic Measuring Equipment) gauge was installed in Lautoka, Viti Levu, Fiji Islands. Readings(height observations) recorded from the gauge, is held in this record and provided in the form of Yearly Reports, Tide Prediction Calendars and Hourly Sea Level and meteorological data (update frequency- real time) from the Lautoka station and also readings from a Non-SPSLCMP Station in Suva, Viti Levu . This is downloadable from the Distribution Info Section of this metadata record and dataset available in digital text format.
The Pacific Islands Applied Geoscience Commission, SOPAC, carried out a marine survey for south coast of Viti Levu, Fiji, from Nasalei (Suva) to Momi (Nadi) from 03/05/03 to 01/07/03. The object was to investigate the seabed and provide information about water depths around the islands using a Multibeam echosounder (MBES).
