The AusSeabed Data Hub aims to make seabed mapping data available to all using FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) data principles, open technologies and communities of practice.
...
support knowledge discovery and innovation both by humans and machines
support data and knowledge integration
promote sharing and reuse of data
be applied across multiple disciplines
help data and metadata to be ‘machine readable’, supporting new discoveries through the harvest and analysis of multiple datasets and outputs.
The AusSeabed Data Hub will make Survey Metadata is and Data available via the ASB Portal (https://portal.ga.gov.au/persona/marine ) on a Survey by Survey basis and from the Contributing Data Hub Provider , via Geoscience Australia’s eCat Product Catalogue and by linking to Contributing Data Hub’s metadata catalogues. In the case of Geoscience Australia this is eCat (ecat.ga.gov.au), and with the CSIRIO it is the Data Access Portal the CSIRO Hub access is provided via (CSIRO Data Access Portal).

Metadata from all available Surveys have no restrictions and will be considered open file unless otherwise negotiated. Individual data components or alternate formats for raw and processed Bathymetry, Backscatter and others data however, may have embargoes, specialised licensing agreements or disclaimers, this information will be included in the Survey metadata to aid discovery, and provide contacts for seeking access.
