Abstract
This seminar will give a preview of the Digital Atlas and also look at the challenges and expectations driving the evolving, complex and misunderstood location data landscape. It will also explore how key partners from across government are working together to navigate this landscape and pave the way for a location-enabled future for Australia. The ways we live, work and learn, are ever evolving, even more so following the challenges we have faced in recent years. The rapid growth of location-enabled technologies, and new and emerging data sources are driving increased demand for real-time location data and personalised data streaming. As a nation, we need a data infrastructure and the capability to connect, access and analyse the wealth of government data assets to empower data-driven, evidence-based decisions. The Australian Government recognise the importance of location-based data and technology as a critical input to decision-making and are investing in key national digital and data initiatives. The Digital Atlas of Australia is one of these initiatives being led by Geoscience Australia. The Digital Atlas will bring together, curate and connect trusted national datasets from across government into an interactive, secure, and easy-to-use online platform. It will enable anyone, anywhere to explore, analyse and visualise location-based data on geography, people, economy, and the environment. Governments, businesses and communities will be empowered to make data-driven, evidence-based decisions about planning, infrastructure and investment at the local, regional and national level.
