The AusCover Facility aims to produce nationally consistent satellite-based maps and remote sensing data validated for Australian conditions. It addresses key questions about environmental changes over time and the impacts of management programs. The facility will operate regional nodes in partnerships and engage users through workshops and an online portal. It will work closely with government agencies and provide remote sensing data, validated biophysical products, and ground instrumentation to establish national standards. Sample datasets will include time series maps of vegetation, land cover, and temperature as well as high resolution field measurements for validation.
