Gold Coast Public Fish Cleaning Sink Locations

Cleaning Sinks data provides geospatial locations of public fish cleaning facilities on Gold Coast land. The City of Gold Coast maintains this asset register, which was last updated in April 2026 following a system migration that altered its structure from a 2013 version.

Use Cases

• Map sink density per suburb using the geospatial point locations for service gap analysis.
• Analyze proximity of sinks to boat ramps or beaches using coordinate data for accessibility studies.
• Track changes in asset locations and labeling between the 2026 and 2013 system versions for historical comparison.

Strengths

• Data is current, with a recorded update in April 2026.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GeoJSON, SHP, and KMZ for tool flexibility.
• Published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Unknown total number of sink records (row count) and geographic point density.
• Data structure and labeling changed from a prior version, complicating longitudinal analysis without the old dataset.
• Scope is limited to public land in the Gold Coast area, not covering private facilities.
