Queensland Earth Observation Hub Funding Programs

To align with our October workshop on “Unlocking Earth Observation for Queensland’s Critical Minerals Sector”, the call for applications for the Queensland Earth Observation Hub funding program is now open. Earth observation is playing an increasingly significant role in Queensland’s critical minerals sector. From pre-mining exploration through to post mining rehabilitation, earth observation can deliver innovation and efficiencies in discovery, assessment, and monitoring. New technologies and new datasets present new opportunities across these activities, including SAR and hyperspectral imaging, machine learning models and tools for image analysis.

The Queensland Earth Observation Hub invites Queensland industry and research organisations to create the partnerships that will realise these opportunities, and to submit applications for the funding program. Funding is not limited to critical minerals activities and proposals from other sectors are also encouraged.

Applications close COB Friday, 24 November 2023.
