Don't start from scratch.
Start with a reference case.
Start by connecting your agents to real data.
OERC is an independent reference layer of Australian offshore environmental and regulatory data that your AI agent can query directly, with every answer traceable to its source.
Connect your agent to real data
Not a document, not a chatbot. A data layer your existing agent plugs into over MCP or plain HTTP. Ask it about the NOPSEMA EP register or a protected-matters screen and it answers from the data.
Every answer has a receipt
Source, publisher, licence, retrieval time and content hash on every row. Ask for a cite receipt and you get a permanent, hashed record of what the data said on the day.
The Reference Case, systematised
The Reference Case is a familiar idea in Australian offshore EP work. OERC is that idea in agent-queryable form: an independent layer, not endorsed by or affiliated with NOPSEMA.
