ACT Water Meter Assets with Ownership and Subtype Attributes

A point dataset showing the locations of Water Meters in the Australian Capital Territory. Assets are owned or managed by City Services and Parks and Conservation Service, with attributes including suburb, ownership, meter number, and asset subtype. The dataset is maintained by the ACT Government Geospatial Data Catalogue (ACTmapi) and was last updated on 2026-04-04.

Use Cases

• Map water meter distribution and density based on suburb and location description.
• Analyze asset ownership and maintenance responsibility based on ownership and maintained_by attributes.
• Classify infrastructure types for asset management based on asset sub type (e.g., Drinking Fountain, Flow Meter).
• Integrate meter locations with other municipal infrastructure datasets for network planning.

Strengths

• Attributes include specific asset subtypes such as Barbeque Tap, Drinking Fountain, and Flow Meter.
• Data provenance is documented, sourced from the works as executed (WAE) handover process or field audits.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GPKG, GEOJSON, and KML.

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, as assets owned privately or by other government bodies may not be included.
