Annex A under Article 3 of this Treaty  

Designation and Description of the JPDA

NOTE

Where for the purposes of the Treaty it is necessary to determine the position on the surface of the Earth of a point, line or area, that position shall be determined by reference to the Australian Geodetic Datum, that is to say, by reference to a spheroid having its centre at the centre of the Earth and a major (equatorial) radius of 6 378 160 metres and a flattening of 1/298.25 and by reference to the position of the Johnston Geodetic Station in the Northern Territory of Australia. That station shall be taken to be situated at Latitude 25 ° 56'54.5515'' South and at Longitude 133 ° 12'30.0771'' East and to have a ground level of 571.2 metres above the spheroid referred to above.

THE AREA

The area bounded by the line -

(a) commencing at the point of Latitude 9deg. 22' 53'' South, Longitude 127deg. 48' 42'' East;

(b) running thence south-westerly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 10deg. 06' 40'' South, Longitude 126deg. 00' 25'' East;

(c) thence south-westerly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 10deg. 28' 00'' South, Longitude 126deg. 00' 00'' East;

(e) thence north-easterly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 11deg. 19' 46'' South, Longitude 126deg. 47' 04'' East;

(f) thence north-easterly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 11deg. 17' 36'' South, Longitude 126deg. 57' 07'' East;

(g) thence north-easterly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 11deg. 17' 30'' South, Longitude 126deg. 58' 13'' East;

(h) thence north-easterly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 11deg. 14' 24'' South, Longitude 127deg. 31' 33'' East;

(i) thence north-easterly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 10deg. 55' 26'' South, Longitude 127deg. 47' 04'' East;

(j) thence north-easterly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 10deg. 53' 42'' South, Longitude 127deg. 48' 45'' East;

(k) thence north-easterly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 10deg. 43' 43'' South, Longitude 127deg. 59' 16'' East;

(l) thence north-easterly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 10deg. 29' 17'' South, Longitude 128deg. 12' 24'' East;

(m) thence north-westerly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 9deg. 29' 57'' South, Longitude 127deg. 58' 47'' East;

(n) thence north-westerly along the geodesic to the point of Latitude 9deg. 28' 00'' South, Longitude 127deg. 56' 00'' East; and

(o) thence north-westerly along the geodesic to the point of commencement.
