Australia - Cyclone Intensity and Frequency Index 1958/2013 - CAMRIS

This database presents an index of the intensity, frequency and density of cyclone occurrence in the Australian region. It has been derived from data held in CSIRO CAMRIS database and originally collected by the Bureau of Meteorology from 1958 - 1990. The cyclone_density code in the coverage represents: 1 Australia, 2-23 the nominal index of cyclone density/intensity, as per the Bureau of Meteorology cyclones database. Format: shapefile. Quality - Scope: Dataset. Absolute External Positional Accuracy Check: +/- one degree. Non Quantitative accuracy: The attribute called nominal_index holds values 0-23, which represent the intensity and density of cyclone occurrence.
