Spatial Online

Welcome to Spatial Online

Spatial Online is the web portal of the Hugo Centre for Population and Migration Studies (the 'Hugo Centre') at the University of Adelaide.

We offer spatial web mapping applications and geographic information systems (GIS) based location analysis services to a variety of universities, individuals and organisations. Formerly the National Centre for Social Applications of GIS (GISCA) and the Australian Population and Migration Research Centre (APMRC), the Hugo Centre is named in honour of the late Professor Graeme Hugo AO, who was the founding director of both GISCA and APMRC.

For more information on spatial datasets and web mapping services produced by the Hugo Centre, please refer to the information below. To access these services and to view other web maps/apps authored by the Hugo Centre, make a selection from the drop down menu located on the top right hand corner.

Accessibility/Remoteness Index of Australia (ARIA)

ARIA has been Australia's standard Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) endorsed measure of remoteness since 2001. This geographic accessibility index aims to reflect the ease or difficulty people face when they access services in non-metropolitan Australia based on road distance measurements. The current version is ARIA+ 2016.
