2.2 Survey Population Overall, the CEODA-R&D survey process identified 217 current Australian R&D projects. The survey ultimately comprised 187 candidate R&D projects, from which 56 were chosen for more detailed investigation. The 56 sample projects are being undertaken by 31 different organisations. The size and scope of these projects varied significantly. • Academic Institutions (universities); • Research Organisations (focused primarily on research and development, such as CSIRO, CRCs, CAWCR and WIRADA); • Federal Agencies (undertaking both operational activities and some in-house research); and • State Agencies (undertaking both operational activities and some in-house research). The breakdown of organisations included in this survey, and the number of projects surveyed from each, are detailed for each of these four types of research establishment in Tables 2-3 to 2-6 respectively. A list of all surveyed projects is given in Appendix A. The proportion of surveyed projects from each type of research establishment is shown in Figure 2-2.

Part 1 (Preliminary Survey) Projects b. Part 2 (Detailed Survey)Projects As illustrated in Figure 2-3, survey results would suggest that, for the survey sample, academic institutions and State agencies currently conduct a greater proportion of low budget EO-related R&D projects, with lower staffing levels (see Figure 2-4), than research organisations and Federal agencies with in-house R&D activities. Research organisations have the greatest proportion of large budget projects and the highest staffing levels (see Figure 2-4), while the research projects being conducted by Federal agencies are more evenly spread over all budget ranges. Interestingly, half the projects within Federal and State agencies, as well as nearly 40% in academic institutions, were specified as ongoing (see Figure 2-5), compared to less than 20% in research organisations. The majority of surveyed projects in research organisations are currently funded for four to six years. Continuity of Earth Observation Data for Australia: R&D • January 2012 19
