Webinar AURIN
Thursday, March 28, 2024
In this webinar, Australian Urban Research Infrastructure Network (AURIN) director Professor Pascal Perez explains the Australian Urban Health Indicator project (AusUrb-HI) project, a collaboration between NCRIS facilities (AURIN, PHRN and ARDC) and researchers from QUT, UWA and RMIT.
AusUrb-HI seeks to facilitate access to restricted linked population health data and generate a new high-value data asset, the Heat Health Vulnerability Indicator, which integrates population health data, demographic determinants, environment, and urban morphology parameters into weighted spatial layers of heat exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity. Efforts to collect this data and develop this indicator have included comprehensive measures to protect personal information, and will allow researchers to understand in greater detail the relationships between human health and the built environment.
