2026 National Research Infrastructure (NRI) Roadmap Issues Paper and Survey
by Matt King 30 Oct '25

30 Oct '25

Dear geodesy colleagues I encourage you all to engage with the below issues paper and survey, as it will help set priorities for future Australian research infrastructure. I imagine that repeated messages help, so please do respond by the deadline. I suggest you express support for any existing infrastructure you find useful (e.g., AuScope, NCI, ...) while also supporting any new investments. But there is also chance to express interest in NEW infrastructure. The survey Q13 asks about new capabilities flagged in the previous submissions (https://www.education.gov.au/national-research-infrastructure/consultations…). Here, the Geoscience Australia submission is of interest to this group, as is Christopher Watson's focusing on sea level change. There may be others. In my submission (https://www.education.gov.au/system/files/2025-10/109_Roadmap%20Survey_%20T…) I noted the need for a national VLM product derived from InSAR as available in New Zealand, Europe and the US. You may wish to refer to that at Q13. Matt Dear valued stakeholder, The 2026 National Research Infrastructure (NRI) Roadmap Issues Paper and Survey is now live We are pleased to inform you that the 2026 NRI Roadmap Issues Paper<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/rmchC5QZjEU0JA0EDcyiOukBwT1?domain=e…> has now been released. In addition to providing information on the existing policy landscape (Section 1.4) and a snapshot of responses received to the NRI Roadmap Consultation Survey conducted in early 2025 (Section 3), this Issues Paper seeks input from Australia's NRI stakeholders on the following topics (Section 2): Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledge systems the humanities the research infrastructure workforce translation and industry new research infrastructure. To support the development of the 2026 NRI Roadmap<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/bU_FC6X1k7CoNXozBc5s4u5IgxG?domain=e…> a series of questions are raised throughout the Issues Paper. All NRI stakeholders are invited to provide their views to these questions via the 2026 NRI Roadmap Issues Paper Consultation Survey<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/zo16C71Zl7fmgLmlJIqtDuozybe?domain=c…>. The following links are provided to support responses to the survey: 2026 NRI Roadmap Issues Paper<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/rmchC5QZjEU0JA0EDcyiOukBwT1?domain=e…> preview of the 2026 NRI Roadmap Issues Paper Consultation Survey<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/kngpC81Zm7fjG9j1KtwuPuyTEKK?domain=e…> submissions received to the previous survey, where permission was granted for their publication and attribution<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/XzQzC91Zn7fm08mQpI0CDuq5SnY?domain=e…>. This survey will close at midday AEDT on Monday 1 December 2025. Townhall Webinar The NRI Roadmap Expert Working Group (functioning as a subgroup of the ministerially appointed NRI Advisory Group<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/7P2DC0YZ4yF2xj2VLFrFJu927qZ?domain=e…>) will host public Townhall webinars to present this Issues Paper directly to provide context for the Issues Paper and outline the process for engaging in the consultation. The Townhall webinar's details are listed below, and all NRI stakeholders are invited to attend. Please note, both webinars will be the same. Stakeholders are encouraged to attend only one session. Townhall webinar dates/times either: * Monday 27 October 2025 at 3:00-3:45pm AEDT * Thursday 6 November 2025 at 3:00-3:45pm AEDT Townhall webinar registration link<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/mRXbCgZovVCl38l97hyHpu4hxFR?domain=c…> Next Steps The collective review of input gathered via the Issues Paper consultation survey; outcomes of ongoing government reviews and upcoming consultations will directly inform the 2026 NRI Roadmap Exposure Draft.
