A Local-State Government Spatial Data Sharing Partnership

Appendix4 – Open Ended Questionnaire Responses
Case Summaries – Part 4 Comments on Use and Capacity of Spatial Data
Case# P4 comments
1 Everything is still in the research and gather stage
8 Particularly with the Topography data, it is reasonably complete but of poor quality.
9 A major active concurrent project relating to Asset Management will address completeness
of the asset data within our property data.
11 We have a complete (internal/external) digital lodgement process for all infrastructure,
environmental, terrain and cadastral information. this was instigated in 1993
16 in the scheme of things council has a lot of data, although there is a high level of inaccuracy
in some data sets – contours, specific land uses (units, clubs, etc)
33 Council is in the process of accurately resurveying the DCDB and supplying the data to
NRM under a data sharing arrangement. Project 70% completed.
34 Lot/Plans supplied with monthly DCDB update, street number & road name address
incomplete due to being a mostly rural shire
38 Q4i: The requests for property information are handled by various Depts.
44 Q4h: quoted as "0" due to existing data share agreements with State Gov.
Q4i: items quoted as "Non existent" are because they are externally sourced by other
organisations as a part of share agreements.
46 Please refer to other comments with reference to DCDB and contour datasets.
55 We hold lots of old outdated titles in our property database (not GIS). Other datasets listed,
whilst complete, are inaccurate, spatially mismatched and all relative to our homegrown
cadastre of unknown/variable accuracy.
56 Council suppied to the state government weekly updates of the cadastral framework. The
supply of data between the council and state is subject to a data share agreement which
excludes charging for data where that data is used for internal operations.
Council operations are dependant upon complete, up to date DCDB and infrastructure
datasets.
57 Complete means under constant maintenance and upgrade egg some drainage MHs do not
have invert levels (
