A variety of written material describing the fundamentals of the workflows available on Biosecurity Commons as well as guides to navigating the platform.

Includes: Risk Mapping, Dispersal Modelling, Surveillance Design, Impact Analysis and Proof of Freedom.

This growing set of instructional videos teaches users how to navigate the platform and how to run the variety of workflows available on the platform. An increasing number of these videos will be embedded into the platform https://app.biosecuritycommons.org.au/

These written descriptions on how to use the EcoCommons platform, the descriptions of the variety of species distribution models (SDM) available and the how to design and run and SDM have proven very popular with students whose instructors are using EcoCommons to teach basic SDM. They also...

1. Examples of code and the associated text summaries describe how open ecoacoustics https://openecoacoustics.org/ data can generate better SDM predictions. By using long-term monitoring data from https://acousticobservatory.org/ which allows analysts to infer absence locations, which does a much...

This is a toy example with many of the steps required for a robust example not included. This does show how to pull together marine data from IMOS / AODN and summarise those environmental predictors and occurrence data by month. Then we show how you can pull together one model with predictors...

This is an introduction to the Five Safes framework and has been developed for anyone with no or little knowledge of the framework can develop their own workshop.

With support from the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) through the Australian Data Partnership program, ACARCinom is the first Australia-wide registry of animal cancer occurrences that addresses the gaps in veterinary cancer data registries. ACARCinom aims to make a positive impact on...

Acacia is Pawsey's "warm tier" or project storage. This object store is fully integrated with Setonix, Pawsey's main supercomputer, enabling fast transfer of data for project use.

These short videos introduce this high-speed object storage for hosting research data online.

Acacia is named...

As Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories (LLNL) prepares to stand up its next supercomputer, El Capitan, application teams prepare to pivot to another GPU architecture.

This talk presents how the LLNL application teams made the transition from distributed-memory, CPU-only architectures to...

Supercomputers make use of accelerators from a variety of different hardware vendors, using devices such as multi-core CPU’s, GPU’s and even FPGA’s. OpenCL is a way for your HPC application to make effective use of heterogeneous computing devices, and to avoid code refactoring for new HPC...

A hands-on workshop covering the basics of the Unix command line interface.

Knowledge of the Unix operating system is fundamental to the use of many popular bioinformatics command-line tools. Whether you choose to run your analyses locally or on a high-performance computing system, knowing...

In this train-the-trainer workshop, we will be exploring and discussing methods for active data management.

Participants will become familiar with cloud storage and associated tools and services for managing active research data. Learn how to organise, maintain, store and analyse active data,...

The VOSON Lab Code Blog is a space to share methods, tips, examples and code. Blog posts provide techniques to construct and analyse networks from various API and other online data sources, using the VOSON open-source software and other R based packages.

The Living Book of Digital Skills (You never knew you needed until now) is a living, open source online guide to 'modern not-quite-technical computer skills' for researchers and the broader academic community.

A collaboration between Australia's Academic Research Network (AARNet) and the...

The idea that you can duplicate an experiment and get the same conclusion is the basis for all scientific discoveries. Reproducible research is data analysis that starts with the raw data and offers a transparent workflow to arrive at the same results and conclusions. However not all studies are...

Nowadays, more information created than our audience could possibly analyse on their own! A study by Stanford professor Chip Heath found that during the recall of speeches, 63% of people remember stories and how they made them feel, but only 5% remember a single statistic. So, you should convert...

This video shows how you can use the web app version of the Trove Newspaper & Gazette Harvester to download large quantities of digitised newspaper articles from Trove. Just give it a search from the Trove web interface, and the harvester will...

This video shows how you can construct and visualise more complex searches for digitised newspaper articles in Trove using QueryPic (see part 1 for the basics). This includes limiting the date range of your query, and changing the time...

This video demonstrates how to use the GLAM Workbench to visualise searches for digitised newspaper articles in Trove. Using the latest version of QueryPic, we can explore the complete result set, showing how the number of matching articles...
