Making marine environmental data more assessment-ready
Australia’s marine research system generates vast volumes of high-quality data, held across national institutions and programs. However, these datasets are not always readily usable for applications such as State of the Environment reporting, environmental approvals or economic accounting. This creates inefficiencies and limits timely, informed decision-making. A project developed as part of the IMOS Data…
