ACT Government Geocoded Addresses for Urban and Rural Properties

ACTGOV ADDRESSES is the authoritative geocoded addressing data maintained by City and Environment for the Australian Capital Territory. It provides spatial point locations and conventional address descriptions, updated daily as addresses are allocated from development applications or residential requests. The dataset includes only assigned addresses for both urban and rural properties.

• Integrating authoritative address data into civic applications based on the ACT Government's maintained source.

Strengths

• Data is maintained daily, suggesting high update frequency.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
