The Positioning Australia Program – Delivering a National Positioning Capability

The Positioning Australia Program is delivering every day. Thousands of users from all around the country connect to our systems to access accurate and reliable data from a national network of continuously operating reference stations. A national capability cannot be achieved alone, it takes collaboration across all levels of government and industry. In this presentation Ryan and Amy will show how open data delivered through Positioning Australia is supporting the inland rail project and delivering better positioning services for farmers in South Australia. There have been many challenges to overcome in delivering this national capability. The speakers will discuss how GA has partnered with industry to facilitate access to land and build infrastructure across the nation during the COVID lockdowns and border closures. Finally, Ryan and Amy will share how we are working to continuously improve our offerings and access to our data and change the positioning landscape in Australia.
