3 Abstract

The CANRI program in it’s final year has developed this project to deliver training and training products for web mappining product managers & data custodians, particlarly those that sit outside of government.

The training material will be developed and first applied at NCC, but made generically applicable and available to all. This project will also ensure the sustainability of the NCC web-mapping facility that enables its 130 member groups to upload their own collected data and combine it with other data sources.

Activities will include a two day train-the trainer workshop in Sydney, an on-line tutorial and sand-pit for real-time publishing.
