Production Release 2.0.0

New vegetation data for individual sites from the Joint Remote Sensing Research Program via TERN's AusCover and the Queensland Department of Science, Information Technology and the Arts are available.
Additional site vegetation data from the TERN AusPlots are also published.
AEKOS now contains two types of data - (1) Individual Sites, also known as Plots or Study Locations, to identify and match plot data on a site by site basis from many data sources; and (2) Survey/Datasets for whole surveys and also static (opaque) data from researchers. You can do significantly more manipulation and filtering with individual sites as there is specific metadata, context and description for each site/plot in addition to the standard metadata that relates to the dataset as a whole.
Free text search on Surveys/Datasets and Individual sites.
Map search and results have been enhanced.
The AEKOS data portal integrates and supports SHARED datasets.
DOI provided for SHARED datasets.
User interface of the AEKOS data portal has been enhanced.
Combinations of Survey/Datasets and individual site data can be downloaded together.
High quality metadata for SHARED datasets are also available through the TERN data discovery portal and the Australian National Data Services's Research Data Australia.
