Gaia Resources has been engaged from 2024 through to 2026 to deliver the pilot phase of the Western Australian Biodiversity Science Institute's Pilbara Biodiversity spoke of the Shared Environmental Analytics Facility (SEAF). SEAF is a secure, cloud-based facility that provides governed, shared infrastructure for analysing environmental data. It supports faster environmental approvals and cumulative impact assessment, as well as federal and state coordination.
Gaia Resources has delivered the SEAF Pilbara Biodiversity spoke - a web-based system that enables the secure contribution of biodiversity data from participants into robust, science-backed analytical tools. This was done through the approach of undertaking proof of concept rapid proof of concepts, determining what scientific research could support the problem (and what exists already) and then operationalising the science that exists within the SEAF environment.
SEAF was launched in May, 2026 at a launch event in Perth, Western Australia
