BENEATH THE SURFACE: INFORMATION TO SUPPORT NATIONWIDE GROUNDWATER MANAGEMENT

摘要

This collaborative approach has for the first time since Federation created a common terminology for groundwater, resulting in a standardisation of groundwater data across Australia. This can be viewed and downloaded from the Bureau's website (www.bom.gov.au/water/groundwater) in a range of formats. The release of national and regional high-level groundwater assessments by the end of 2015 will be another step towards a comprehensive suite of groundwater information. The Bureau's goal is to continue to improve the quality and range of groundwater data and information holdings to support transparent management.
