National Agricultural Definition and Data Model (BRISBANE)

NATIONAL AGRICULTURAL DEFINITION AND DATA MODEL WORKSHOP BRISBANE In partnership with Meat and Livestock Australia [https://www.mla.com.au/], Integrity Systems Company [https://www.integritysystems.com.au/] and PSMA [https://psma.com.au/], FrontierSI [https://frontiersi.com.au]is facilitating an Agricultural Property Definition workshop in Brisbane on Friday 14 February 2020. Digital integration of real time information for Australian producers presents a massive value uplift for informed and timely decision-making on a property. At a fundamental level, enabling digital information to be integrated for producers, requires a spatial property database containing accurate boundaries of Australian agriculture producing properties. Currently, no complete and maintained data set exists in Australia. The land parcel component defining accurate boundaries of property is well defined and accessible (land cadastre), yet it is not optimised to provide a holistic linked view into all land parcels that constitute a producing property, nor tagged to allow filtering to agricultural properties. In fact, the definition of a ‘producing property’ (or agriculture property) for all types of agri-foods (i.e. grain, horticulture, livestock, hobby farms etc.) is not well defined. For example, hobby farms may not be captured at all if they do not meet the considerations for a primary producing property, yet still produce agriculture outputs of noteworthy scale. The workshop aims to gather stakeholder requirements from many sectors of agriculture to help the research team develop a national definition of agricultural property and an associated data model. The agenda will include: • how this aligns to, and should coordinate with, other national initiatives in this domain; • your experience with existing agricultural property data and definitions, and the barriers and frustrations associated with these; • the current and potential use cases of agricultural property data and their similarities and differences; • your requirements for the new definition and the principals to use for decision making; • your requirements for the data model and the principals to use for decision making. Participants are required to bring their own device (laptop, tablet, mobile phone) for internet access to complete an online survey and polls during the day.
