This dataset is a daily raster of 3-day forecast heat- and cold-wave forecast for the state of Tasmania, based on the EHF (Extreme Heat Factor) calculation (Nairn & Fawcett 2009). The data is updated daily at 12:00 noon and displays forecast heatwave conditions for the following three days in seven categories (severe, extreme and normal cold wave, no warning, and severe, extreme and normal heat wave).

A statewide grid surface (80m spatial resolution) delineating recent air temperature (Degree Celsius, oC) of Tasmania is produced in near real-time. The outputs are dynamic with air temperature maps updated at half-hourly intervals (there is a production time lag where outputs typically take 30 minutes to be produced from the true observation time). Refer to the following link for details of the latest map updates: https://sdi.tas-hires-weather.cloud.edu.au/shiny/ Map outputs are based on records produced from 43 Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) Automatic Weather Station sites with further bias correction provided by 267 independent air temperature logger recording sites (courtesy of the Tasmanian Government Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment (DPIPWE)). For operational real-time application, the mapping was fully automated in the R programming language and hosted on a cloud-based computing platform courtesy of Sense-T and hosted on the high performance computing cluster provided by the Tasmanian Partnership of Advanced Computing (TPAC) of the University of Tasmania.

A collection of high-resolution climate grid surfaces for land areas in Tasmania based on CMIP6-era Regional Climate Projection Modelling (via the Australian Climate Service). There are 304 climate products available that delineate temperature and rainfall parameters specific to crop growing requirements that form part of the enterprise suitability mapping program (refer here: https://dpipwe.tas.gov.au/agriculture/investing-in-irrigation/enterprise-suitability-toolkit/enterprise-suitability-maps). Broadly speaking these products include climate risk parameters including frost risk, heat risk and extreme rainfall risk as well as crop related indices including growing degree days and chill hours. Furthermore, mean monthly climate variables including mean monthly maximum/minimum air temperature and rainfall products are also produced. Refer here for dataset inventory: https://nrmdatalibrary.dpipwe.tas.gov.au/FactSheets/WfW/ListMapUserNotes/Inventory_DCM_Tas.pdf CMIP6-era Regional Climate projections were incorporated into the modelling framework to simulate projected climate (according to SSP3-7.0) for years 2030, 2050, 2070 and 2100. These projections were downscaled, and bias corrected to a spatial grid resolution of 30m. Also, note that these outputs relate to the baseline climate maps defined here: https://www.thelist.tas.gov.au/app/content/data/geo-meta-data-record?detailRecordUID=ba62f124-5906-4471-a01c-9b57b6142055 All products can be accessed via Web Map Service: https://spatial.dpipwe.tas.gov.au/naturalassets/Climate/wms Or viewed in the following Web Map application: https://arcg.is/vaHDG

A grid surface delineating the mean number of frost days (below 0 Degree Celsius, C) for land areas across Tasmania at a spatial resolution of 30m. Three datasets are available for this parameter representing recent climate to 2018 (fr_lt0_mean) and projected climate - based on Climate Futures for Tasmania (CFT) modelling - at 2030 (fr_lt0_mean_2030) and 2050 (fr_lt0_mean_2050).

A statewide grid surface (80m spatial resolution) delineating recent accumulated rainfall (millimetres since 9am) across Tasmania is produced in near real-time. The outputs are dynamic with maps updated at hourly intervals (there is a production time lag where outputs typically take 30 minutes to be produced from the true observation time). Refer to the following link for details of the latest map updates: https://sdi.tas-hires-weather.cloud.edu.au/shiny/ Map outputs are based on records produced from Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) Automatic Weather Station and Rain Gauge sites, in addition to Tasmanian government rain gauge and thrid party weather station sites. For operational real-time application, the mapping was fully automated in the R programming language and hosted on a cloud-based computing platform - via the high performance computing cluster provided by the Tasmanian Partnership of Advanced Computing (TPAC) of the University of Tasmania.

These wind statistics data are collected continuously at the Tasmanian Earth Resources Satellite Station (TERSS) facility on Droughty Hill near Hobart on Tasmania's south east coast. Data collection began in September 1995 and continued to Dec 2011. Instrument Details: Location: latitude -42.9256, longitude 147.4206, ground elevation 150m, instrument 7 metres above ground. Manufacturer: R.M. Young Company. Traverse City, Michigan 49686 U.S.A. 616-946-3980 (http://www.youngusa.com) Model: Wind Monitor, model 05103V (See link to brochure). Data: Each line of data gives values reduced from samples collected every second over the preceding 10 minutes. Parameters include: Date; Time (UTC); Mean wind speed; Minimum wind speed; Maximum wind speed; Mean direction; Standard deviation of the previous 10 1-minute direction averages; Vector averaged wind speed; Vector averaged wind direction; Vector averaged "stress" in (m/s)**2; Vector averaged stress direction. The code that takes the one second readings and produces the 10 minute averages in the data files is available via the documentation links section). NOTE: This data is collected in order to assist in the daily management of the satellite dish. The instrument is located at a site to suit this particular purpose, not at a location that would provide the best statistics for other purposes.

This collection provides hourly near-surface (1.5 m) air temperature grids for Australia with a spatial resolution of 1 km. These data are spatially interpolated using quart-variate thin plate splines (full spline dependence on easting, northing, elevation, and time-varying coastal distance index), and include two key products: i) a long term climatology for every hour on every 5th day of the year (representing 1990-2019), and ii) a time-series of hourly air temperature data beginning on 01/Jan/2015.
