Gold Coast Public Building Footprints And Asset Types

Polygon data indicates the location and type of buildings on public land in the Gold Coast area. The dataset includes versions from 2013 and 2014, created and updated by the City of Gold Coast. The 2014 version features a different structure due to a new asset management system.

Use Cases

• Classify building types (e.g., Kiosks, Sheds) using polygon attributes for asset inventory.
• Analyze spatial distribution of public buildings across the Gold Coast area.
• Compare structural changes in asset data between the 2013 and 2014 versions.

Strengths

• Data covers two distinct years (2013 and 2014), allowing for temporal comparison.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats (KMZ, GEOJSON, SHP) for flexibility.

Limitations

• The 2014 data is structured differently than 2013, complicating direct time-series analysis.
• Sample size and total row count are unknown, limiting assessment of coverage.
