Operational highlights, exciting projects enabled by AARNet and other key financial, service and growth information can be found inside our annual reports.
AARNet operates high-capacity links to North America and Asia, and onto Europe and the UK.
Digital Earth Australia, a ground-breaking open source platform, transforms spatial data and satellite imagery into easily accessible tools for planning and decision making, and relies on AARNet for moving data around the research community.
An ambitious project to create digital 3D reconstructions of shipwrecks for virtual underwater heritage museum experiences relies on the AARNet network for the transfer of huge volumes of data from the research lab to supercomputer.
Ballarat Clarendon College implements an improved managed security service from AARNet in partnership with CyberHound.
Since connecting to AARNet, St Ignatius secondary school in regional Victoria has implemented a cloud-based Learning Management System (LMS) and, for the first time, has simultaneous College-wide access to HD video streaming.
A dynamic new climate model has been developed with the help of AARNet. With greater resolution than other models, it’s helping Australia cities protect and plan for the changing climate.
A customized AARNet network solution has greatly improved access to essential satellite imagery and geospatial data for NSW Office of Environment and Heritage researchers who help inform government policy on land management.
At the Australian Centre for Health Innovation in Melbourne, a simulated hospital leverages the ultra-high speed and reliability of the AARNet network to test and trial new and emerging technologies
For Presbyterian Ladies’ College Sydney and Armidale (PLC) speed is the new normal and there’s a lot more confidence in the classroom to deliver digital resources live.
A diverse connection to the AARNet network ‘future-proofs’ a regional school, where reliable internet supports classroom teaching, links students to metropolitan experts and underpins the adoption of new technologies.
A user-activated digital delivery system at the University of Melbourne’s eScholarship Research Centre is using CloudStor’s FileSender to slash the time taken to deliver materials to researchers.
Life-changing work investigating rare diseases by researchers at The Garvan’s whole-genome sequencing facility relies on powerful technology and network connectivity.
AARNet plays a critical role in connecting life sciences researchers and data in Australia to EMBL data, resources and colleagues in Europe.
Unhappy with the status quo, an innovative project is testing open source software, USB drives and AARNet's CloudStor service to bring students a step closer to taking exams using their own laptops.
An international research group is harnessing the power of big data, supercomputing and global research network infrastructure to transform the way we model the Earth’s processes.
AARNet is helping Australian researchers fast-track health and medical breakthroughs by providing fast and secure network connectivity to genome sequences of thousands of organisms.
Climate modelling research has always been an international collaborative effort, relying upon high capacity research networks for the transfer of the massive amounts of experimental data.
AARNet underpins the work of Australian scientists participating in global research projects aiming to increase the yield of crops and future proof food production for Australia and the world.
Connectivity to AARNet enables easy sharing of DNA sequencing data and fast access to cloud computing services for the Koala Genome project collaborators, boosting research outcomes.
