Our work
A healthy environment is vital for everyone. At the National Measurement Institute, we work with industry, government and academia in Australia and around the world, to help protect our environment. Both now, and into the future.
We apply our specialist measurement expertise to:
- ensure the quality of environmental data, such as water quality and flow measurements
- contribute to strong science-based evidence to inform environmental management and policy development
- help Australia meet its international environmental treaty obligations
- address emerging and priority environmental challenges on a national and global scale.
Our high-quality testing and analysis and calibration services support:
- regulatory compliance
- environmental management
- crisis response across all levels of government.
To help ensure measurements are reliable and comparable we develop both:
- reference standards
- other measurement quality tools.
We also complete research to help address priority and emerging environmental issues.
We're a trusted and respected source of independent measurement advice.
