RLA Dashboard specifications
RLA Dashboards display ARC grants by collaboration type, and list non-university partners. All partners are included, even if some partners departed before the grant period ended. The data source is ARC grants, and is reproduced without change.
A Non-University Partner is defined as any organisation that is not an Australian University

Topic-based Dashboards
Eight Dashboards select ARC grants based on their Primary FOR and SEO to create specific topics
Sources:
ARC codes include FOR codes for 2020, 2008; RFCD codes for 1998; and SEO codes for 2020, 2008 and 1998

Overlaps
There is a current issue with RFCD codes 1998 duplicating newer codes FOR 2020 with the proposed temporary solution to start Dashboards at the year 2009
A proposed future solutions will separate RFCD codes form FOR codes in Elastic Search.
