AURIN delivers critical data and analytical tools to government and researchers across Australia, supporting innovative research and policy decisions on Australian cities and regions.

Established in 2010, AURIN is funded by the National Collaborative Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) to provide national research infrastructure. Since its inception AURIN has served over 24,000 users, providing access to over 5,000 datasets focusing on urban systems and regional centres. These figures are expected to grow significantly over the next five-year period, thanks to an ambitious strategy of partnerships with the private sector and government agencies.
