ACT Water Valve Assets with Ownership and Material Attributes

Water valve locations in the Australian Capital Territory, owned or managed by the City and Environment Directorate. Attributes likely include location description, suburb, ownership, asset subtype, material, make, model, lid type, valve size, and depth. The dataset is maintained by the ACT Government Geospatial Data Catalogue and was last updated on April 4, 2026.

Use Cases

• Map water valve distribution across suburbs based on location and suburb attributes.
• Analyze asset ownership and maintenance responsibility based on ownership and 'maintained by' fields.
• Identify valve types and materials for infrastructure planning based on asset subtype and material attributes.
• Assess valve specifications for maintenance scheduling based on valve size, lid type, and depth information.

Strengths

• Attributes include specific asset subtypes such as Air Relief Valve, Butterfly Valve, Gate Valve, Hydrant, Isolation Valve, Pressure Relief Valve, Solenoid Valve, Stop Valve, and Swing Check Valve.
• Data is maintained through a formal works as executed (WAE) handover process or field audits.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including CSV, 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 inherent to data_gov_au, as assets owned by other government bodies or privately may not be included.
