Full description The 2020 Independent Review of the EPBC Act (the Samuel Review) states that “Decision-makers, proponents and the community do not have access to the best available data, information and science. This results in sub-optimal decision-making, inefficiency and additional cost for business, and poor transparency for the community. Immediate investment in the information supply chain is needed to support reform. We can't wait until perfect data is available. What is missing at the moment, is the step required to routinely turn well-managed marine research data into marine environmental data and products, that can be consumed by the EIA national environmental data supply chain and made available for use in SOE reports, Environmental Economic Accounts, environmental assessments, and tracking of environmental trends and outcomes.
This project will address that gap by (a) identifying priority datasets currently managed as research data and (b) building the additional information infrastructure required to (c) routinely deliver marine environmental data and products that are assessment ready, in line with the Nature Positive Plan.
