The Environmental Informatics Group envisage a future where digital solutions enable Australia to make sustainable use of water and land resources and manage hazards from climate change and extreme events.

The Environmental Informatics group works with governments and communities to make informed decisions and anticipate future environmental conditions. With our diverse skills, partnerships, and technology expertise, we build on emerging technologies, are impact focused through agile approaches, and use design and social science to ensure solutions meet the needs of stakeholders and society. We have a track record for delivering outcomes that intersect design and social science, emerging AI/ML, environmental modelling and data technologies. Examples of our work include:

  • Digital Water and Landscapes program explored science research and innovations that will transform how water and landscapes are managed in Australia
  • NSW BioSMART tool part of the Biomass for Bioenergy project, the BioSMART tool supports decisionmakers explore information about emergent energy sources.
  • Generative Artificial Intelligence for Water investigates how we can apply the new generation of large language models to interpret the growing library of environmental literature and reports.
