Research Data Services (Old ID 22208)
Ian Atkinson
01 Jun 2015 - 30 Jun 2016
The intended outcomes from the RDSI (EIF) project, as described in the 2013-14 RDSI Business Plan, comprise the establishment of (a) a number of high-capacity storage nodes, and (b) a dedicated high-bandwidth, low latency inter-connection network to support data transfer and replication, together with the implementation of (c) common access infrastructure that provides a uniform user access experience, and (d) appropriate specialised access infrastructure, including the hosting of specialist access tools related to national collections.
Develop a deployable hardware and firmware control system (Old ID 26806)
Ian Atkinson
12 Apr 2020 - 11 Apr 2021
Develop an integrated Agriculture control systems solution that will increase functional flexibility with more inputs, outputs using low energy, long range communications networks and low energy, longrange sensing devices for large area multi-farm applications.
Smart Ear Tag for Livestock (Old ID 23414)
Ian Atkinson
29 Sep 2017 - 31 Mar 2021
CeresTag is investing in the development of a smart ear tag for livestock to enable near real-time geo-location and health monitoring. The developed ear tag will be compliant with the current NLIS identification system and cost only marginally more than existing tags. This technology will revolutionise the industry through enhanced animal welfare, improved land management practices and increased profitability. It will form the starting point of block chain traceability that will underpin the continued success of this important component of the Australian economy and help maintain the premium status of Australian livestock products.
Enhanced landscape scale management of feral pigs and buffalo in large remote landscapes with new technologies enabling real-time data, modelling and analytics (Old ID 23595)
Ian Atkinson
05 Aug 2017 - 30 Jun 2019
In remote Northern Australia properties are vast with limited seasonal access. In these large connected landscapes feral pigs and buffalo are controlled on an annual basis with limited success despite significant investment in time and money. Here we propose to develop an Internet of Things low power network connected with advanced low cost tracking devices and big data analytical techniques to develop a real time pest species tracking system including environmental sensors. Using these data, scientists and land managers will work together to develop end user products that will be used to inform strategic integrated pest management programs.
Queensland Additional Node of the Commonwealth Data Storage Infrastructure (RDSI) Project Providing Critical Infrastructure for Very Large Scale Research Data to Queensland Research (Old ID 21122)
Ian Atkinson
01 Apr 2014 - 31 Dec 2017
QCIF will establish and operate an additional node at JCU for the national RDSI research infrastructure data storage program. This node will store massive volumes of medical, environmental and other research data produced by modern instruments, sensors and tools. Immediate priorities are tropical research into eradicating mosquito-borne diseases including malaria environmental monitoring and species distribution data and climate change impact modelling.
Improved feral cattle and buffalo herd management for environmental and economic benefits in remote Northern Australia (Old ID 26983)
Ian Atkinson
09 Dec 2020 - 31 Dec 2023
The project aims to develop improved feral cattle and buffalo herd management for environmental, biosecurity and economic development in remote Northern Australia. It includes the following core components: 1) Development of a smart ear tag using GPS and Kineis satellite telemetry (France) - JCU lead agency 2) Testing and development of the ear tag at Fletcherview Research Station (approx. 100 animals) - JCU lead agency 3) Development of management tools for geolocation data - CSIRO lead agency 4) Deployment of tags on 1000 feral Buffalo and Cattle in the NT - CSIRO/NAILSMA 5) Development of on-ground capacity for herd management within indigenous community organisations - JCU/NAILSMA
Early detection of asset failure using Machine Learning (Old ID 26476)
Ian Atkinson
15 Apr 2019 - 13 Apr 2020
Develop an artificial intelligence (AI) model to anticipate the likelihood of catastrophic failure of civil assets (eg bridges). This includes validation of code to support the AI processing of real-time data measured from large civil infrastructure such as bridges and assessing the viability of using low-cost IoT sensors to monitor asset health in real-time.
Applying new technologies to enhance biosecurity and cattle quality. (Old ID 23456)
Ian Atkinson
15 Jan 2018 - 30 Jun 2021
The vast natural environment of Northern Australia feeds the cattle industry; however, biosecurity threats have negatively impacted this. Conventional management of such threats such as weeds are not suited to such broad, harsh landscapes. The project will use an Internet of Things network with low-cost environmental sensors, drone mapping and big data analytics to develop and test data-driven, strategic pest management programs - ultimately improving both cattle industry and natural assets.
Machine Learning for Structural Health Monitoring (Old ID 26289)
Ian Atkinson
01 Jan 2019 - 31 Dec 2019
Structural health monitoring (SHM) is a developing technology but is still considered expensive by asset owners. However, SHM is on the verge of a massive technology disruption. Through the emergence of low-cost, high-performance sensors, the development of Internet of Things (IoT) communications and now deep-learning, Artificial Intelligence (AI) the SHM monitoring of buildings, bridges and other civil assets can now be realised. This project will attempt to build a prototype loT/ML based SHM system.
Building the capabilities of mid-level health service managers in leading and supporting the health workforce (Old ID 30050)
Zhanming Liang
04 Jan 2024 - 03 Jan 2026
Building the capabilities of and empowering hospital mid-level managers in fulfilling their management responsibilities can improve quality care provision, maximise service efficiency and improve retention. Via an evidence-based process, the project will capture the strengths and identify weaknesses of mid-level managers and confirm factors that affect building such capabilities. The project will guide partner organisations in developing mechanism to tackle isolation and lack of support experienced by mid-level managers from widely- spread regional and rural locations, ultimate improving retention and resulting in better leadership to manage and support care managers and staff.
