Offshore Acreage Release 2007: Interactive 3D VRML Models

Six interactive 3D VRML models of the 2007 offshore acreage release areas in Australia. The Australian Ocean Data Network created this product for distribution at the 2007 APPEA conference and later via the web. The data is part of the Australian Government's strategy to encourage petroleum exploration investment.
