• TITLE: Geodesy in Australia: National Report 1991-95 [PDF_152k]
  Summary: In Australia, research in geodesy is undertaken through University establishments, principally funded by grants from the Australian Research Council (ARC). Activities in support of the national geodetic infrastructure are coordinated through the State and Federal government agencies by the Intergovernmental Committee on Surveying and Mapping (ICSM). This committee has established a working level Geodesy Group, chaired by Geoscience Australia, with representatives from State and Federal agencies. Representatives from the Geodesy Sub-Committee and the National Tidal Facility participate as observers. The Geodesy Group plans and implements approved national projects.
