ACT Government Horse Paddock Assets and Locations

A polygon dataset shows the location of public horse holding paddocks owned by the ACT Government. Assets are owned or managed by the ACT Parks and Conservation Service or the Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate. The data is captured through a works-as-executed handover process or in response to boundary changes.

Use Cases

• Map public horse agistment facilities based on the geospatial polygon data.
• Analyze land use allocation for equestrian activities based on asset sub-type attributes like paddock, yard, or lane.
• Manage public asset inventories for parks and conservation services based on the described maintenance process.
• Assess the spatial distribution of community facilities based on location descriptions and paddock sizes.

Strengths

• Attributes include paddock name, location description, asset sub-type, and paddock size in square meters.
• Data is maintained through a formal works-as-executed handover process or in response to boundary changes.
• Specific managing entities (ACT Parks and Conservation Service, Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate) are identified.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data shows operational areas and should not be used to define legal boundaries, as noted in the description.
