Node Development (NoDe)
The NoDe Programme will identify, strengthen and develop research data centres able to hold and process high data volumes.  Documents available here: http://rdsi.uq.edu.au/node

Research Data Services (ReDS)
The ReDS programme will identify research data holdings of lasting value and importance and contribute funding to their development at the most appropriate Primary or Additional Nodes.

Data Sharing (DaSh)
The DaSh Programme will build capability to support the sharing and re-use of research data and, as a result, is aimed at expanding the scale and scope of problems that Australian researchers may seek to address.
