Schematic overview of IMOS Bioacoustics sub-Facility operations to collect and publish bioacoustic data with related metadata. Bioacoustic data received from diverse operators are quality-controlled and made available through the Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN) Portal. IMOS currently has a portfolio of 13 Facilities that undertake systematic and sustained observations of Australia’s marine environment. It is integrated in terms of its geographic domain (from coast to open ocean) and scientific domain, combining a wide range of physical, chemical, and biological observations from a variety of platforms. IMOS observations are turned into data that can be discovered, accessed, downloaded, used, and reused through the data Facility AODN.
