ACT Government Gate Assets in Australian Capital Territory

ACTGOV Gate Assets is a point dataset showing locations of gates in the Australian Capital Territory, managed by City Services and other directorates. It includes attributes for location description, suburb, ownership, maintenance responsibility, and asset sub-type. The dataset is maintained through a works-as-executed handover process or field audits.

Use Cases

• Map gate asset locations by suburb and ownership to analyze municipal infrastructure distribution.
• Classify gate types using the asset sub-type field (e.g., Agricultural Gate, Cattle Grid, Security Gate) for inventory management.
• Analyze maintenance responsibility patterns by cross-referencing the 'maintained by' and 'ownership' attributes.
• Assess gate material and purpose attributes for infrastructure planning and standardization.

Strengths

• Includes a detailed asset sub-type classification with 16 distinct categories.
• Specifies the authoritative maintenance process via works-as-executed handover or field audits.
• Attributes cover administrative (ownership, suburb) and physical (material, dimensions) characteristics.

Limitations

• Excludes gates owned or managed privately, by other ACT Government directorates, or by the Federal Government, limiting completeness.
• Sample data and total record count are unavailable, preventing assessment of dataset scale and specific content.
• Relies on manual handover and audit processes, which may introduce data latency or inconsistencies.
