Using metadata from the National Tidal Centre, Australia Port Stanvac has been made RLR. Primary benchmark is 6527/8394 SEAFRAME sensor benchmark. 7.578m above Tide Gauge Zero (TGZ). TGZ is 1.280m below AHD (prior to 2008 TGZ was 1.2641m below AHD). The tide gauge was removed at the end of 2010.Documentation added 2019-01-23
