Western Australian Coastal Infrastructure Points From Aerial Imagery

Spatial points represent Department of Transport assets and coastal infrastructure in Western Australia, including water distribution, drainage, sewerage, electrical services, overbeach launches, boat mooring piles, signs, and dredged channels. Locations were generated from interpretation of aerial imagery by Geographic Information Management. The dataset is licensed under CC-BY and was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Map and analyze the spatial distribution of coastal infrastructure points like boat mooring piles and overbeach launches for regional planning.
• Identify service asset locations for water distribution, drainage, and sewerage systems to support infrastructure maintenance planning.
• Study the point representation of maintained dredged areas in channels and harbors for marine navigation support analysis.

Strengths

• Contains point data for multiple infrastructure types including service assets, launches, mooring piles, and dredged areas.
• Managed by the authoritative state Department of Transport's Geographic Information Management team.
• Updated in March 2026, indicating recent maintenance.

Limitations

• Current operational status and safety of the represented structures are not guaranteed.
• Certain Department of Transport assets like signs and plant equipment are excluded from this public version.
• Locations are derived from aerial imagery interpretation, which may introduce positional inaccuracies.
