ACTGOV Dam Wall Assets: Locations and Attributes in Australian Capital Territory

A polyline dataset shows the locations of Dam Walls and Weirs in the Australian Capital Territory. Assets are owned or managed by the City Services, City and Environment Directorate (CED). Attributes include location description, suburb, ownership, maintained by, asset sub type, dam code, storage area, and material.

Use Cases

• Map dam and weir infrastructure locations based on polyline geometry
• Analyze asset ownership and maintenance responsibilities based on ownership and 'maintained by' attributes
• Inventory water storage assets based on dam code and storage area information
• Identify asset construction materials based on the material attribute

Strengths

• Attributes include ownership, maintenance responsibility, and material type
• Data is captured and maintained through a formal works-as-executed handover process or field audits

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Assets owned privately or by other government bodies may not be included
