Vision - Make the CRCSI a world leader in spatial information applications that are affordable, useful and readily available to all – at any time and in any place.
Statement of Purpose - To create new wealth for the participants of the CRCSI, and for the nation, through research innovation and commercialisation; through educational activities; and through powerful collaboration that builds institutional capacity.
Operation - CRCSI brings together $78 million in cash and in-kind from its partners to identify the question of our future spatial information needs— who needs SI, in what form, and when—and to seek innovative solutions to these needs. The CRCSI uses the collective wisdom of a broad base of participants to accelerate the industry growth, generate intellectual property, seek efficiency gains for government, and better position the research and education programs of universities and other institutions.
CRCSI invests in research and development projects using the resources, and for the benefit, of its stakeholders. A key initiative is Virtual Australia.
Virtual Australia - CRCSI invests in activities that promote Australia’s ability to progressively contribute to the creation of "Virtual Australia" consistent with the CRCSI’s vision. Virtual Australia is defined as: A virtual (digital) model containing and representing all non-trivial objects and their contextual environment – from blue sky to bedrock – in (real world) Australia.
