Testing and Measurement in Melbourne

Today's testing and measurement website hotspot is... Melbourne, Australia. Melbourne is the second most populous city in Australia and the biggest in Victoria, of which it is the capital. Sitting at the estuary of the River Yarra, Melbourne overlooks Port Phillip Bay, which opens into the Tasman Sea. 

The city was founded in 1835 and named in 1837 after the British Prime Minister at the time, Viscount Melbourne. It became one of the world's biggest and most prosperous cities during the Victorian gold rush of the 1850s and served as the new nation's capital from 1901 to 1927.
