Abstract
Geoscience Australia (GA) manages a network of 150 Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) across Australia, Antarctica and the Pacific. In addition, GA supports data archiving and distribution of a further 450 CORS that contribute to the Asia-Pacific Reference Frame (APREF) project. The primary objectives of this network have been to maintain the National Geodetic Reference System and support scientific endeavours. GA is currently shifting the focus of our GNSS networks from a scientific model to one which supports both science and industry. This requires GA to meet higher standards of data availability and accessibility, latency and metadata accuracy. Further to this GA recognises the need to take advantage of Australia¿s unique geographical location and move towards providing access to multi-GNSS data in modern formats such as RINEX 3 and RTCM 3.2 (MSM). This presentation looks at the current state of the Australian CORS network and highlights our planned transition and expected challenges in moving from a scientific model to an operational model supporting modern data format and streamlined metadata.
