Fire Fighting Equipment - Australia - OSM data
This dataset provides geolocation data for fire fighting equipment across Australia, sourced from OpenStreetMap and compiled and processed by Opendatasoft. It is refreshed weekly to capture the most recent OpenStreetMap edits, ensuring the data reflects current mapping contributions. Fields prefixed with 'meta_' contain supplementary information added during processing by Opendatasoft, such as metadata about the record itself. The dataset can be used to locate fire hydrants, extinguishers, and other fire safety infrastructure, supporting mapping, analysis, or emergency-planning applications at a national level.This dataset geolocates fire fighting equipment in Australia. It is based on OpenStreetMap data, which is then compiled and processed by Opendatasoft. It is updated weekly to retrieve the most recent OpenStreetMap elements. Fields prefixed with 'meta_' are additional information produced by ODS....
