Summary
Sensor calibration facility for spectral and thermal remote sensing. This project aims to establish a calibration facility for the radiometric and spectral correction of hyperspectral and thermal sensors for ultrahigh-resolution remote sensing. Sensor calibration and characterisation is critical to the accuracy of hyperspectral and thermal data products, however, there is no central facility in Australia for this purpose. This project will provide significant benefits, such as growing our capaci ....Sensor calibration facility for spectral and thermal remote sensing. This project aims to establish a calibration facility for the radiometric and spectral correction of hyperspectral and thermal sensors for ultrahigh-resolution remote sensing. Sensor calibration and characterisation is critical to the accuracy of hyperspectral and thermal data products, however, there is no central facility in Australia for this purpose. This project will provide significant benefits, such as growing our capacity in ultrahigh-resolution remote sensing for ecosystem science, biosecurity, and disaster response.Read moreRead less
ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science. The ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES) will create next generation electrochemical devices via the precision assembly of nano/micro dimensional components into macroscopic structures. Through the discovery of new materials and structures, and understanding how spatial arrangement in 3D influences chemical, physical and biological properties, ACES will define the cutting edge of Electromaterials Science.

The ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES) will create next generation electrochemical devices via the precision assembly of nano/micro dimensional components into macroscopic structures. Through the discovery of new materials and structures, and understanding how spatial arrangement in 3D influences chemical, physical and biological properties, ACES will define the cutting edge of Electromaterials Science. The resulting technology breakthroughs will have a direct impact on some of today's most challenging global problems in clean energy, synthetic biosystems, diagnostics and soft robotics. National benefit to Australia will be realised through the creation of new manufacturing industries.Read moreRead less
Creating a national time and frequency network for Australia. This project will develop the means to distribute accurate time and frequency across the Australian continent via an optical fibre network. This network will meet the needs of future telecommunications, science and astronomy projects including the Australian bid for the Square Kilometre Array radio-astronomy project.
On-fibre separation science with ambient ionisation mass spectrometry. This project aims to combine fibre-based electrofluidics and ambient ionisation mass spectrometry. Fibre-based electrophoresis is a separation technology which is cheaper, simpler and faster than pre-MS analyses. This project will use the fibre simultaneously as the ionisation platform for ambient mass spectrometry, combining the processes of separation and ionisation in a portable and flexible platform. The developed technol ....On-fibre separation science with ambient ionisation mass spectrometry. This project aims to combine fibre-based electrofluidics and ambient ionisation mass spectrometry. Fibre-based electrophoresis is a separation technology which is cheaper, simpler and faster than pre-MS analyses. This project will use the fibre simultaneously as the ionisation platform for ambient mass spectrometry, combining the processes of separation and ionisation in a portable and flexible platform. The developed technology is expected to provide new capability in bioanalysis, proteomics and rapid clinical diagnostics. Future benefits may include new commercial fibre based technologies which could be applied within industrial and clinical laboratories within the next ten years.Read moreRead less
