Australian Surveying and Land Information Group
Australian Spatial Data Directory (ASDD)
Quarterly Technical Report
April to June 2001
Introduction
At the end of June 2001, there were 22 nodes within the ASDD
with a total of 29,097 dataset descriptions available for
searching. Statistics are provided for the ASDD covering number,
compliance and reliability of nodes, number of hits and records
per node for the months of April, May and June 2001.
Achievements during past quarter
Work started on setting up the ASDD on the AUSLIG site as part
of the handover of the ASDD from the Environmental Rersources
Information Network (ERIN) to the Australian Surveying and Land
Information Group (AUSLIG).
The following table lists the nodes and the number of records
per node that were accessible at 31 June 2001.

Node descriptions
ASDD node descriptions http://www.ga.gov.au/asdd/tech/node/
It is the responsibility of each node manager to utilise the
online document management application to describe their node and
update the node description whenever they choose.
