ACTGOV Community Path Assets with Surface and Hierarchy Attributes

Australian Capital Territory polyline data shows locations of Community Paths owned or managed by the City Services Directorate. Attributes likely include location description, suburb, ownership, asset sub type, surface type, average width, route hierarchy, route number, name, travel direction, and restrictions. Data is captured through the works as executed handover process or field audits and maintained by the ACT Government Geospatial Data Catalogue.

Use Cases

• Map active travel route networks based on polyline location data.
• Analyze path surface type distribution (e.g., concrete, asphalt) for maintenance planning.
• Model pedestrian and cyclist connectivity based on route hierarchy (Principal, Main, Local, Access).
• Assess path accessibility based on attributes for travel direction and restrictions.

Strengths

• Attributes include specific asset details like surface type, average width, and route hierarchy.
• Data is maintained through a formal works as executed handover process or field audits.
• Polyline geometry enables precise spatial analysis of path networks.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to data_gov_au, as assets owned privately or by other government bodies may not be included.
