Australian Urban Research Infrastructure Network

Federally funded $24 million project from the Department of Education, lead by the University of Melbourne.

Provides a secure online data portal for researchers and government staff to access quality data for research and policy decisions.

This site is not public and can not be used for commercial purposes.

AURIN Lens 6

AURIN “Lens” • address issues of national significance • facilitate urban research, modelling and policy- &

decision-making

Lens 6: Water and energy supply & consumption(WESC)

Facilitate urban research for WESC at as fine-scale as possible (focus on protocols and datasets)

Data aspirations• fine scale spatially (individual property)• collected typically 1-3 month (or hourly if smart-meter)

Need consumption data!I’ll ring Bob, he ‘Has Data’

*RING RING*

Hi Bob, I need some consumption data for my urban model. Any ideas?

Utiilty Bob

Oh yes, we have some but I’ll need to dig it up.I’ll send it through when I have it…1 week later…

To: John01/04/09, 5.2, 3, 101/07/09, 3.1, 3, 1

10 minutes…*RING RING*

Ok. Got the data. Where are the meter readings located?

Oh, it’s for Brunswick.

How many meters?Ummm. (papers shuffle)5,272 meters

Units? Megalitres, gigalitres, or ?

Ehh.. Megalitres

All residential or also commercial?

Oh that’s not what I want…can I just have residential?

Umm......

BOB?

WESC Challenge

1. How do we enable consistent comparisons between WESC datasets?

2. How do we facilitate data integration across WESC and other domains?

WESC data protocols to integrate water/energy and other urban datasets

CSIRO-AURIN Lens 6/2 Project – Phase 1

Develop protocols to streamline access and use of WESC datasets by harmonization (via data standards & data services)

Enabling consistent comparisons between WESC datasets• Data formats• Standardised access methods• Semantics and definitions

Enabling integration with other urban datasets• Population• Buildings• Household

Project Roadmap and Future work1. Uptake for research/policy applications across

universities, government (fed/state/local) and industry

2. Fostering community around this data/research• Refinement of WESC controlled vocabularies• Greater negotiation of ASGS aligned data

3. Build out - extend coverage of the WESC data hub• Call for contributions: SA, WA, TAS, NT & regional

Events• May/June ‘15: Online webinar/tutorial• July ‘15: AURIN-2 Stakeholders workshop• June 2016-2017: Potential follow-on project

38 |


Summary

• Challenges and use cases –around compare between WESC datasets and data integration with other domains

• AURIN Lens 6/2 project, WESC data standard and AURIN/CSIRO WESC data hub established

• Exploring future opportunities – uptake, fostering community, calling for collaborators
