This project is a nine-month project responding to the need for a consolidated understanding of the quality, purpose and availability of bushfire datasets in Australia. This project responds to findings – from the 2020 Royal Commission into National Natural Disaster Arrangements and the 2020 NSW Independent Bushfire Inquiry – that Australia does not have a national centralised bushfire information database.
