Northern Grampians Shire Road Network with Asset Management Data

Polyline data maps the location of all council-registered roads in the Northern Grampians Shire region. The dataset includes 12 asset management attributes such as road type, responsible authority, and route usage. Northern Grampians Shire Council created this snapshot, which reflects the road network status as of September 2019.

Use Cases

• Classify road segments as Sealed or Unsealed using the Type column for pavement condition analysis.
• Analyze maintenance jurisdiction by joining data on the RMP_Mainta and RMP_Respon authority fields.
• Identify strategic freight or bus corridors by filtering the Route_Use column for 'bdouble' or 'bus' routes.
• Group road assets for network analysis using the Road_group and Hierarchy columns.
• Trace asset history by linking current AssetID records to previous External_ID entries.

Strengths

• Dataset provides 12 distinct asset management and spatial attributes per road segment.
• Explicit field descriptions clarify the meaning of each column, such as Type and Route_Use.
• Data is offered in multiple geospatial formats including GEOJSON and SHP for flexibility.

Limitations
