Funded Activity Summary

Australian Astronomy Grid. An explosion in the rate of data acquisition in disciplines such as Astronomy will require new database structures and management systems. Scientists need fast access and analysis of data from many diverse telescopes, instruments and theoretical modeling packages. In 2004, we will start building the Australian Astronomy Grid based on GrangeNet,including at least three nodes. This program is complementary to and builds on substantial investments in Europe, the US and the UK to develop the International Virtual Observatory. The Australian Astronomy Grid will be a key demonstrator for Australia's information infrastructure.
