The Open Data Cube (ODC) is an Open Source Geospatial Data Management and Analysis Software project that helps you harness the power of Satellite data. At its core, the ODC is a set of Python libraries and PostgreSQL database that helps you work with geospatial raster data. See the GitHub code repository. Data is available as individual files on the NCI THREDDS catalogue.

Digital Earth Australia is the Australian government's implementation of the open source analysis platform developed as part of the Open Data Cube (ODC) initiative. The DEA program contributes code, documentation, guides, tutorials, and support to international users of the Open Data Cube.

More on the Australian Government’s investment in Digital Earth Australia, which translates almost 30 years of Earth observation satellite imagery into information and insights about the changing Australian landscape and coastline.


TERN

TERN (Terrestrial Ecosystem Resource Network) is Australia’s land ecosystem observatory. Its Data Discovery portal provides open access to numerous data sets. It also has a map-based search function. TERN is supported by the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS)

Listen to Richard Lucas and Peter Scarth explain how TERN Auscover biomass and mangrove change databases have been developed and can be used


Copernicus Australasia Data Hub

Copernicus Australasia is a regional hub supporting Copernicus, Europe's multifaceted Earth observation program. Copernicus provides free and open access to data from Europe's Sentinel satellite missions for the South-East Asia and South Pacific region.

More information about Copernicus Australasia can be found here. For general inquiries, please contact earth.observation@ga.gov.au


LandMonitor

The Western Australian State Government collaboration generates state-wide information products to enable evidence based decision making. It provides access to Landsat satellite image mosaics, salinity maps, vegetation maps, digital elevation models and other map datasets. The project covers the south-west of Western Australia's agricultural area until 2017, then state-wide coverage for vegetation from 2018 onwards.


Atlas of Living Australia

The Atlas of Living Australia (ALA) is a collaborative, digital, open infrastructure that pulls together Australian biodiversity data from multiple sources. It is supported by NCRIS and hosted by the CSIRO. Access to its data portal is free.

Watch a video about the ALA.


Remote sensing data available on application (some only for research purposes).

Mostly LiDAR scans - example, dinosaur footprints, BRDF, saline ponds near Melbourne.
