Executive summary The Department of Natural Resources and Mines (DNRM) is an economic development agency that enables the productive and responsible use of our natural resources - water, land, minerals and energy resources to generate wealth and prosperity for current and future generations of Queenslanders.

In delivering this outcome, the department acquires extensive information related to the State’s land, natural resources and mining activities. The information held by the department supports five business objectives:

• A globally competitive mining, petroleum and gas industry; • A safe and healthy resources industry; • Productive and responsible use of our natural resources; • Balance in the access to and use of natural resources; • Regulatory certainty for communities, industry and investors.

This June 2014 Open Data strategy continues to be focussed on increasing the release of raw data in a machine readable format, under open licensing and where possible for free.

The department has grown the number of datasets available via the Queensland Government Open Data Portal since the release of its first Open Data Strategy in May 2013. At time of publication, DNRM has available 102 Open datasets representing 645 data resources, each an individual data file that can be downloaded or accessed directly via an API or web-service.

For the first time the strategy includes a list of all datasets held by the department not just its openly available data. For those ‘closed’ or restricted data sets the reason(s) why they are not being released openly are given. The department believes this is a significant improvement in transparency and accountability and will help us focus on the task of releasing all of our Open Data as soon as possible.

DNRM remains on track to release all of its Open Data by June 2015. During the previous year the department achieved 96% of its targeted number of datasets for release. DNRM continues to refine its understanding of the data it manages, for example, clarifying its definition of ‘datasets’, determining its rights in data it has acquired and identifying any duplicate datasets. This has and will continue to see minor changes in the number of DNRM’s datasets and their category (‘open’ or ‘closed’). This document represents the department’s most comprehensive assessment of its data holdings to date.

The June 2014 Open Data Strategy for DNRM accounts for its 305 datasets as follows:

• 102 are currently available through the Open Data Portal; • 62 are planned for release under the department’s Open Data Strategy; • 141 will not be released by the department as an open dataset.

The following table lists the number of datasets and when they are planned to be released:

Year Quarter Planned for Release

Number of datasets planned for release

2014 June – September 49

October – December 5

2015 January – March 7

April - June 1

The release of open datasets by Queensland government departments is also allowing the department to increase the visibility of those data resources which are spatial through the Queensland Globe, itself an open data set. The department is continuing to make the majority of spatial data resources published on the Open Data portal available through the Queensland Globe as committed in the Queensland Government’s six month action plan (July – December 2013).

The department continues to believe that providing maximum access to information that it holds assists in contributing to an accountable, open and transparent government and assists individuals and businesses to implement streamlined approaches to their interests and activities.

Feedback on this strategy continues to be encouraged. Please contact the department via email: [email protected]

Introduction The department published its initial Open Data Strategy in May 2013. This strategy was based on a comprehensive audit of information held by the department (early 2013) and a best assessment of when it was likely the department could assign resources to making data accessible online and available through the Queensland Government Open Data Portal (https://data.qld.gov.au) .

In the ensuing 12 months, the majority of datasets planned for release have been made available, with a few delayed. This document provides detail on the progress made and builds on significant work done previously by the department in making datasets widely available.

This strategy has been restructured and introduces new information to improve the transparency related to information held by the department.

Firstly, datasets released (Appendix A) and datasets planned for release (Appendix B) have been aligned to the definitions used on the Queensland Government Open Data Portal. The Open Data Portal uses a two tier grouping of datasets and data resources. A dataset may consist of one or multiple data resources. Where a dataset has only one data resource, typically the dataset and data resource have the same name. This changed approach results in the department having less datasets than reported in the last strategy. However, the number of data resources reported in this strategy reflects the number of datasets in the strategy previously.

Secondly, a new appendix C has been introduced, listing all the datasets not to be released through the Open Data initiative and the associated criteria as to why Open Data release is not possible. It is important to note that access to these ‘closed’ data resources may still be possible under restricted conditions.

Finally, a list of statutory bodies that report to the Minister for Natural Resources and Mines have been included identifying whether they have published their own open data strategy or requested a dataset to be listed in the department’s open data strategy.

While the Open Data Strategy is focused on provision of raw data, the department is also committed to provisioning its data in additional ways as required for its various customers and stakeholders. This access can be summarised in three ways:

• In online applications or publications (e.g. reports, maps) where the information is presented in easy ways for customers to use, and may include some interpretation (visualisations);

• As datasets which customers load onto their computers (downloads); • Via direct online connection services (e.g. Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) compliant,

Representational state transfer (REST), Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) web services) where the customer does not wish or need to store the data (web-services).

The department also remains committed to the provision of meaningful information about the data resource itself (metadata and catalogues). The aim is for users to be better informed so they can make judgements regarding the data’s fitness for their specific purpose. Information provided can include explanations of codes and abbreviations used internally and shown in the data resource, the date of capture, any known accuracy, completeness or quality limitations. It is also important to ensure the dataset or data resource name is informative, particularly where they relate to or are instruments of law.

The information provided in this updated strategy is based on the status of dataset publishing at June 2014.

Information responsibilities and governance The department collects and manages an extensive and diverse range of information to enable it to deliver its responsibilities. The information consists of statistical analysis related to activity levels, information describing the geography of Queensland, information in registries which secure rights to land and natural resources and mine safety and health records. At the highest level, the information managed by the department is grouped in the following 42 information themes.

• Administrative boundaries • Cadastre • Compliance • Corporate • Drainage • Elevation • Explosives safety and health • Extractive resources • Geoscience and exploration • Historic mine sites • Imagery • Integrated foundation spatial

information • Land registry • Mine land use planning • Mine safety and health • Mine safety and health generalised

research • Mining and exploration investment

attraction • Mining rent and statistics • Mining safety and health statistics • Mining tenure administration

• Native title • Natural resource management

programs • Occupational health and safety • Petroleum and gas safety and health • Place names • Positioning infrastructure • Products and services • Property address • Property sales • State control survey • State land • Strategic cropping land • Transport • Underground water impact monitoring • Valuations • Vegetation management • Vegetation permits • Water billing • Water entitlements • Water management • Water management staff delegations • Water monitoring

The department has a long established information asset governance practice, which ensures responsibility for both the access to information, and also the quality of the information. The department manages its information assets through the assignment of the data custodian role to senior level positions in the department – Executive Director or equivalent for each of the 42 information themes. The data custodians have responsibility to:

• Ensure the quality and integrity of the data to appropriate standards; • Engage with users to understand data improvement and coverage needed; • Ensure the ongoing capacity to manage and make accessible the data; • Provide appropriate discovery and access arrangements.

For data acquired from other parties and used by the department, the custodianship approach is applied to ensure accountability continues related to data currency and honouring licence arrangements under which the information is acquired.

This governance framework provides clear accountability for senior executives to consider specific customer and stakeholder feedback resulting from the department’s Open Data Strategy.

The Executive Director, Land and Spatial Information has been assigned the department champion responsibility to coordinate and progress the department’s implementation of the Open Data policy. Progress is monitored on a regular basis and reported regularly to the department’s Renewal Board and Executive Management Group. The department will continue to review the strategy on an annual basis.

Key successes In the last 12 months there have been many successes supporting easier access to open data from the department. Three in particular have provided significant benefit.

Released information resources During the last 12 months, 121 data resources have been released, from across 20 of the information themes managed by the department.

The release of the department’s initial Open Data Strategy coincided with a very significant increase in the number of data resources downloaded from the previous year (up to 100% increase in monthly comparisons).

Queensland Globe The Queensland Globe launched in April 2013 uses a readily available and easy to use application (Google Earth) to view Queensland Government spatial data. The Queensland Globe allows a user to view a wide range of information from the department, and link to previously unavailable or chargeable searches and products for free. Using the Queensland Globe (an open dataset itself), the department has developed numerous themed Globes which add additional content to the base Queensland Globe data. Featured globes to date have focussed on coal seam gas, mining, floods and land valuations for example.

All of the Queensland Government’s spatial data has also been allocated to ‘category’ globes based on the international standard (ISO19115). These category globes contain datasets published by all departments to the open data portal. Over 250 Queensland Government datasets are available presently and this number continues to grow as agencies publish more open data.

The early signs of business transformation using openly released information are coming through in feedback to the department. Users of the Queensland Globe are describing how this is changing the way they are undertaking their business and the efficiencies they are achieving. Examples include the ability to visualise information in one application (property and mining tenure information) and users’ ability to overlay their own information easily over the Queensland Government information. The release of the Queensland Globe has also seen private sector companies decide offer training courses in the use of the Queensland Globe and its data.

The Queensland Globe has seen a 145% increase in usage since January 2014 and in June 2014 will surpass one billion map requests since its launch (April 2013).

Linking of Queensland Spatial Catalogue The department has hosted for a number of years the Queensland Spatial Catalogue on behalf of Queensland Government. This online catalogue of spatial data is widely used by spatial professionals to identify available spatial data. The information contained in the catalogue is very rich in detail and able to be joined up with other spatial catalogues worldwide as it conforms to international standards.

During the last 12 months the interface between the Queensland Government Open Data Portal and the Queensland Spatial Catalogue has been developed allowing relevant information fields to be electronically harvested into the Open Data Portal. This connection has opened up to a wider audience the availability of spatial data held by numerous departments.

Planned for release datasets This updated strategy has identified 62 datasets for release between June 2014 and June 2015, with the majority to be released by the end of 2014. These are listed in Appendix B and Appendix D. While many of the datasets planned for release are water related, there are datasets from 15 information themes.

The majority of these datasets to be published are very large and ensuring the necessary online delivery infrastructure is available is an important part of the technical aspect of making them available.

Datasets not available for release As described in the initial strategy, the department holds datasets, which at this point in time, it is unable to release as part of the Open Data initiative. These datasets are now listed in Appendix C.

There are seven criteria for which a dataset may not be able to be released. One or more of the criteria may apply to individual datasets. The criteria are explained below. In certain circumstances access to some of this information may be possible, particularly for government purposes. The data custodian is responsible for deciding access to ‘Closed’ data and they may be contacted via email at [email protected]

Privacy In some datasets, personal information is contained and at this time no logical aggregation of this information has been identified, so that information in a de-personalised manner can be made available without the risk of breaching privacy. Some of this information is held in public registers and is only able to be released on a single record basis as required by legislation in the form of a search. In the case of some property valuation and sales data with personal details, it is only able to be supplied as a dataset where the customer has become a subscriber to the Personal Identification Information in Property Data Code of Conduct http://www.propertydatacodeofconduct.com.au/ttsvr/home. This requires the customer to enter into a specific licence and to pay an appropriate fee to access the dataset.

Intellectual Property or Confidentiality Often the department acquires data from other parties for use in business activities. The acquired data is provided with licence conditions, and generally does not permit the department to release this information. The department also receives some information in accordance with legislation that requires the department not to release the information for specified time periods. After these time periods the information becomes available.

Revenue / Funding Subscription Model There are a number of datasets which while accessible in various forms (e.g. property searches, data files, etc) are not available freely or with an open licence. In some cases this is due to the amount of revenue generated to support government activities. In other cases, the ongoing data capture programs to maintain the currency of the datasets (e.g. aerial photography and LiDAR) rely on subscription models to assist in funding the capture programs. While the data resources are not available initially for free, after a number of years they are released as open data resources.

Release would breach statutory or legislative requirements There is information held by the department for which specific statutory or legislative provisions govern its release. In these cases the department is unable to release this information unless statutory or legislative frameworks are modified.

Public Safety or Security Some of the data that is required to be submitted to the department contains information that if released could result in a risk to public safety or security. At this time no logical aggregation of this information has been identified, so that the information can be provided in a form removing the risk to public safety or security.

Alternative source Some of the data held by the department is available from other sources, typically other levels of government, in open manners. One such example if where the native title information for all of Australia is available from the National Native Title Tribunal. The department believes that where up-to-date information is available from other sources in open manners, then effort is not warranted in duplicating these access arrangements.

Current technical limitations Some data held by the department is very large in size. This data is typically available from the department using portable hard drives, but the infrastructure to make the information available on line

has not yet been established. The department is working towards having infrastructure available that would permit online access to the information, but timeframes for when this will be achieved are not finalised.

Statutory authorities or instrumentalities To improve awareness of statutory authorities and instrumentalities data (which form part of the department’s Ministers responsibilities) appendix D has been included.

Statutory authorities and instrumentalities have two choices in how to make public their datasets. They can publish their own Open Data Strategy or they can request their datasets be included in the department’s Open Data Strategy. Two bodies have published their own strategies, and no other statutory authorities or instrumentalities have notified the department of datasets for inclusion.

The department will contact the statutory authorities and instrumentalities on an annual basis so that this strategy can be updated.

The department is also making available datasets which aid in understanding the geographic extent of these bodies and activities of the bodies. These details are also listed in Appendix D.

Future Program The Department of Natural Resources and Mines will continue to work towards improving access to information held by the department. The continued priority is on delivering access to the datasets and data resources identified in this strategy as set out in Appendix B. As part of this approach there will be ongoing activity to review licences in already published data resources, where they are not currently Creative Commons and therefore have some limitations on how the data resources can be used.

The department continues to encourage feedback on datasets available and required. Through the responsible data custodians, the needs of current and emerging customers and stakeholders will be considered. This information can be provided directly to custodians through the department’s open data email account [email protected] . The department will continue to support data users to better understand the data it holds.

The department will continue to foster a culture where information is released to the maximum extent possible and for this to occur naturally as part of the way the department does its business.

The department will further develop category globes so that data available through the Open Data Portal (which can be related to Queensland’s geography) is available through the Queensland Globe. The department is also planning to make available chargeable searches through the Queensland Globe (commencing with a title search), allowing individuals to obtain these online from the Queensland Government, supporting the Queensland Government objective of delivering all information services online. This will complement arrangements in place with other parties who distribute products on behalf of the department.

A continued focus for the department is to improve the quality of its data, as resources permit, with activities prioritised to those bringing the greatest benefit. The processes of capture of some data have resulted in known data accuracy and completeness issues particularly when combined with other datasets.

The department will audit its data on an annual basis with the purpose to identify any new datasets developed and opportunities to release further depersonalised datasets which are currently not available openly in their current form.

This approach will see the department continue to proactively release data captured and collected to the maximum extent possible, in forms and manners which maximise the usefulness to all the department’s customers and stakeholders. This pro-active release aims to support the widespread use of data, minimising duplicated data capture, and foster an environment for new innovative information products to be developed.

Stock routes Queensland Queensland's stock route network (SRN) provides pastoralists with a means of moving stock 'on the hoof' around the state's main pastoral districts, as an alternative to trucking and other contemporary transport methods. Approximately 72 000 kilometres (2.6 million hectares) of Queensland's road network is declared as stock route. These routes, together with reserves for travelling stock, make up the Queensland SRN. The Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route Management) Act 2002 (Land Protection Act) regulates the use of the SRN.

Water management Department Natural Resources and Mines - water monitoring network 2012 - surface - ambient quality

The Department of Natural Resources and Mines (DNRM) Surface Water Ambient Water Quality Network (SWAN, WQ) (dataset WM1112) monitoring includes either time series (continuous) measurements via electronic sensors, or discrete water sample collection which is laboratory analysed, or a combination of both. This relies on long term monitoring over the full range of flows, so that the effects of seasonality, extreme flow events and non-uniform variance are accounted for

This dataset (WM0154) is equivalent to the 'Stream Gauging Station Index 2013' document that is published on the Water Monitoring Data Portal, being an index of historic (closed) and current (open) stream gauging stations managed by the department. Monitoring involves measurements via electronic sensors for: 'G'type stations - time series (continuous) water level (height) from which flow (quantity) is calculated, 'Q'-type stations - various water quality measurements such as temperature, electrical conductivity.
