The AuScope Portal has been around for many years as AuScope’s flagship gateway to Australian geoscience datasets. In recent years, the team behind the portal has been conducting some interviews with users and research groups and has come away with the strong impression that access to the data was of paramount importance. This is particularly important in the geosciences where data comes from quite disparate sources and there is often some work required to find and access it, let alone ensure that it is in a format that is suitable for use. As a result, the team has been busy improving the findability and accessibility of the portal from top to toe, from the user interface to the back-end services.
This wide-ranging talk covers areas such as:
Vincent Fazio is a software developer employed by CSIRO Mineral Resources to implement AuScope’s future vision for Australian geoscience research.
