Positioning Regional Victoria project wins Geospatial Category - 2011 eGovernment Awards
The Department of Sustainability and Environment, Victoria has won the Geospatial Category for their Positioning Regional Victoria project in the 2011 Excellence in eGovernment Awards.
The awards were held in Sydney on June 1, 2011.
The Positioning Regional Victoria (PRV) project provides a state-wide Networked Real-Time Kinematic (NRTK) high accuracy (±2cm) positioning service. The PRV project managed the installation of over 57 Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS).
As a result, Victoria's existing network has grown to more than 103 CORS, enabling the delivery of a robust infrastructure. PRV is helping new and existing industries that are increasingly dependant on access to high accuracy satellite positioning and navigation infrastructure by delivering a strategic and rational alternative to the current ad hoc GNSS infrastructure development. High accuracy GNSS users now benefit from access to one multi-modal infrastructure, providing a technological advantage to attract and spatially enable business and investment.
More information is available about the Positioning Regional Victoria project from the Department of Sustainability and Environment.
