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.

CSIRO industry PhD on machine learning analysis of precise GNSS time series with application to sea-level rise
by Matt King 14 Aug '25

14 Aug '25

Dear Colleagues I am readvertising the below position - please distribute this to present or former honours/masters students interested in undertaking a PhD in data science/geodesy. The project is well supported with a $12k/yr topup and substantial project support, and an internship with Geoscience Australia. Together with CSIRO and Geoscience Australia I am pleased to advertise a new and well supported Industry PhD project. The project seeks to improve the accuracy of estimates of Australia's 3D motion and deformation. The improved vertical land motion estimates from this PhD will then be applied to improve our understanding of sea level rise around our coastlines. This collaboration between CSIRO Data61, UTAS and Geoscience Australia will develop novel unsupervised machine learning approaches to detect hidden and subtle changes in highly precise measurements of Earth's changing shape. Hundreds of continuous GNSS sites now operate across Australia, and tens of thousands globally, allowing Earth's 3D motion to be theoretically tracked at the millimetre level. However, the utility of these data is degraded by undiagnosed and hidden changes in the time series due to hardware, geophysical or environmental changes. Robust and repeatable automated techniques are currently less accurate than laborious manual expert human analysis. Novel methods that detect hidden, subtle changes in high-precision continuous GNSS time series will be developed and then applied to publicly available data from Australian GNSS sites. This work will improve satellite positioning products used by Australian industry, government and researchers. For instance, quality-controlled data products will improve our understanding of Australia's vertical land motion, and this will directly improve estimates of sea-level rise. Other applications include improving knowledge of the present-day strain of the Australian crust, yielding insights into seismic risk. The developed methods will be operationalised at Geoscience Australia. This exciting and well-supported project allows a candidate to work on a pressing societal problem and work closely with partners in CSIRO Datat61 and Geoscience Australia. The project will include an internship with Geoscience Australia. There is a global shortage of experts in this area, including within Australia. The expertise provided in this PhD will place the candidate as one of Australia's experts in geodetic data analysis, of which Geoscience Australia is the national lead. The student will work with a great team including me (Primary Supervisor), Daniel Smith (CSIRO Data61), Anna Riddell (GA), and Christopher Watson (UTAS). Please get in touch with me if you have any questions. Please note applications will only be considered from Australian citizens or Permanent Residents, or a New Zealand citizens.
