The Technical Build section provides a comprehensive overview of the underlying architecture and operational framework of the Visualising Australasia’s Soils (VAS) platform. It outlines the complete data lifecycle from acquisition and validation through to storage, access, and dissemination by demonstrating how each component of the platform integrates to support interoperable, standards-based soil data management.
Details the structural design of the VAS system, illustrating data flow from upload, validation, and database layers through to the API and client interfaces.
Describes the presentation layer and interface where datasets, services, and resources are delivered to end users and data custodians.
Showcases integrated monitoring systems, including Rainfields, Soil Monitoring, and Soil Moisture Probe networks, enabling real-time data visualisation and reporting.
Outlines governance, licensing, and data-security measures that ensure data provenance, user accountability, and system integrity across the VAS environment.
