PROJECT TITLE
Infrastructure for a Spatially Integrated Social Science e-Research Facility
PROJECT SUMMARY
The requested facility with its Nationally Distributed Socio-Spatial Data System and On-Line Analysis, Modelling and Visualisation Research Facility will enhance Australia’s national research capacity for secondary data analysis and modelling of socio-spatial information with visualisation, substantially reducing the cost of innovative research conducted at various levels of spatial scale to investigate both local and nationally signifi cant demographic, social, economic and behavioural issues. It will deliver national/community benefi ts through enabling hundreds of researchers and graduate students across the university system to investigate demographic, economic and social issues at various levels of spatial scale.
