Yarra Ranges Council Green Waste Collection Boundaries

Yarra Ranges Council provides spatial data on prescribed residential properties eligible for fortnightly organic waste collection. The dataset, last updated March 2026, defines service boundaries for green waste disposal under a CC BY 4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Map eligible property boundaries to analyze service coverage and identify potential gaps in green waste collection.
• Integrate boundary data with population or property datasets to estimate the volume of organic waste generated within the service area.
• Use the spatial features to plan efficient collection routes for prescribed residential properties.

Strengths

• Authoritative data sourced directly from the Yarra Ranges Council government body.
• Offers multiple spatial file formats (WFS, SHP, GeoJSON, WMS) for interoperability with various GIS tools.
• Dataset was updated in March 2026, indicating recent maintenance.

Limitations

• No quantitative attributes (e.g., row count, property counts, waste volumes) are provided in the available metadata.
• The spatial coverage is limited to the jurisdiction of the Yarra Ranges Council, not applicable to other regions.
• Lacks descriptive columns detailing specific property attributes or collection metrics.
