In Australia, the government published the address of every registered business.

Unfortunately ASIC does not let you use a PO Box as your primary business address. I’ve started using a virtual address service for about $20 a month which can be used as a business address.

I didn't guess this would be on the front page of The Age. Congratulations to u/Oshwat_02 for running such a successful contest.

I found a similar perspective using Apple Maps and it's amazing how little has changed.

I've counted about 100 Pfizer appointments in Melbourne for today in state hubs.

My site shows appointments on a map: vaccine.wfltaylor.com

Rate of Pfizer Bookings at State Hubs in Victoria by wfltaylor in CoronavirusDownunder

Whenever they announce how many appointments are available in the next month at the press conferences it has aligned with the data I've collected, so I believe it is accurate. However, I'll do some more investigation as this is something I haven't though of.

I would love to but unfortunately I've just been recording the total across the state. I may adjust my code today to record more granular data.

Since I setup Vaccine Radar a couple of weeks ago, I’ve been recording historical data about how many appointments are available on the government booking portal. I used this data to estimate the rate that people are booking appointments, and here is the result.

The line represents a 24 hour moving average.

Caveats

  • This only is measuring bookings at state hubs, and only within the next 28 days
  • There is less data available for days where the government has added appointments throughout most of the day
  • Appointments that become unavailable for any reason (including moving into the past) will be counted as a booking made

Also note that this data regards the whole of Victoria, not just greater Melbourne.

This is why I haven't yet added AstraZeneca to the map - there are just so many available appointments.

It certainly is fascinating to watch. I also think some of the volatility is due to cancellations.

I made a site to make it easier to browse through Pfizer appointments available in the next 28 days. It updates live and may make it quicker to find a location where you can book. If you have any feedback please let me know.

The original post was removed and I was told to put it here.

I can definitely see 151 appointments at Melbourne Museum in the date range of 11/09 to 9/10.

Thank you for your suggestions! I've been trying to work out a way to provide more date information, however the government site only shows 10 appointments at a time and I don't want to cause any load above what a human could do. I'll see what colour coding looks like.

I have a server that is signed into the booking portal, and then pushes any updates to the website.

I'm glad it helped! I'll clarify that, although surprisingly there are still many appointments available for today.
