Fundamentals Webinar: Improving Asset Data Quality with GIS Mapping
09-Dec-2026
About this event
Accurate asset data is essential for effective service delivery, infrastructure planning, regulatory compliance and responding to Before You Dig Australia (BYDA) enquiries. Yet many councils continue to face challenges with incomplete, inconsistent or difficult-to-access asset information.
In this webinar, Mangoesmapping will share practical lessons from its work with Cook Shire Council, demonstrating how a structured approach to data cleansing and intuitive web mapping can significantly improve asset visibility and accessibility across an organisation.
The session will explore Cook Shire's journey from identifying gaps in asset data to implementing a user-friendly GIS mapping platform that supports operational decision-making and improves confidence in asset information. Attendees will gain insights into the steps involved in improving data quality, the benefits of accessible mapping tools, and the measurable outcomes achieved through the project.
Mangoesmapping will also showcase how its GIS Enterprise Mapping (GEM) platform is supporting other local governments, including a case study from Carpentaria Shire Council highlighting how better asset data management helped address engineering department BYDA request backlogs.
Key topics include:
- Local government obligations relating to asset data management and responding to BYDA enquiries
- Common challenges associated with incomplete or fragmented asset datasets
- Lessons learned from Cook Shire Council's asset data improvement project
- The role of data cleansing in improving asset records and network visibility
- Benefits of intuitive web-based GIS mapping platforms for operational teams
- Real-world examples of how GEM is supporting Queensland councils
- Free GIS and asset data health review opportunities for participating councils
This webinar is ideal for asset managers, water and wastewater operators, engineers, GIS officers, infrastructure planners and local government leaders seeking practical approaches to improving the quality, accessibility and value of their asset data.
Registrations will open soon!
