Introduction

• 2012-13 the Bureau's website received 48 billion hits

• 65% increase in the number of people accessing the site from mobile devices

• Every day millions of observations are received, stored, analysed and published by the Bureau

Linked Data

• Allows users to visualise data by exploring it graphically

• Developed in collaboration with:

• The Bureau of Meteorology

• National Plan for Environmental Information Initiative

• AGIMO

• Information Engineering Laboratory (CSIRO)

• Data sets currently available

• ACORN-SAT – The Australian Climate Observations Reference Network – Surface Air Temperature

• Daily temperature record over the last 100 years

• http://lab.environment.data.gov.au/

Hydrologic Reference Stations

• The Hydrologic Reference Stations identifies Australian streamflow trends and detects long-term variability and change in streamflow.

• Allows users to visualises historical data for 221 streamflow stations

WDTF Visualisation Tool

• Allows users to visualise the data in Water Data Transfer Format (WDTF) files

• Developed by CSRIO to visualise WDTF data

• The Bureau receives approximately 200, 000 WDTF files a month
