ACTGOV Streetlight Cable Assets in Australian Capital Territory

A polyline dataset shows locations of overhead and underground streetlight cables in the Australian Capital Territory. Assets are owned or managed by the City Services, City and Environment Directorate (CED). The dataset includes cables from ActewAGL’s database as of June 30th 2017 plus newer cables handed over to the ACT Government.

Use Cases

• Identify cable routes for excavation planning based on location and status attributes.
• Analyze infrastructure ownership and maintenance responsibilities based on ownership and maintained-by fields.
• Map electrical load distribution based on voltage and cable type attributes.
• Assess asset lifecycle based on installation date and status fields.

Strengths

• Includes both overhead and underground cable types.
• Attributes include ownership, maintenance responsibility, voltage, and installation date.
• Cable length is derived from the spatial geometry of each feature.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Cable locations represent indicative routes rather than survey-accurate alignments.
• Data may be incomplete and should not be solely relied upon for searches.
