Current Data Standard & Provisional release notes

Provisional Data Standard release 1.5

We’ve collated all proposed updates to AMDS Data Standard version 1.4 into a provisional AMDS Data Standard version 1.5.

Each update is accompanied by an entry in the change log, clearly outlining proposed modifications to existing standards. This approach ensures greater visibility and provides stakeholders with the opportunity to review and comment before changes are finalised.

Key updates to be included in AMDS Provisional version 1.5 are:

• Significant updates to the Biodiversity Standard, featuring major changes to attributes and lookup lists.
• Enhanced data capture for side culverts, allowing inclusion of details such as Number of Uniform Barrels, Culvert Area, Grate, and “Has Headwall?”
• An expanded Water Structure Standard that now includes new asset types like pump stations, hydrodynamic separators, and flushing eyes.
•  Improved handling of time-limited parking signs using flexible values—such as PP22 for time-restricted, other times, PXX double arrow—with actual time limits now displayed in the Legend Text.

There is also a new Provisional update now ready for your review:

• The introduction of the new Gate Standard, which now covers all gate types used across the roading network and proposes moving barrier gates from the Barrier table to the Gate table.

Please send any questions or feedback on the provisional standard to amds@nzta.govt.nz

Data standard release – version 1.4

Release Version 1.4 of the Asset Management Data Standard (AMDS) is now available and once published, in the appropriate software applications, will become available for use by the land transport sector.

Release Version 1.3 will continue to be available and includes additional information and supporting documentation in relation to the approach to the Drainage Standard and the AMDS System Standard.

Proposals for new standards have been released provisionally and after having been circulated for feedback, are ready to be incorporated into the next release version.

As such, the following Standards have been included in this release:

• AMDS Network Model
• AMDS Resource Efficiency
• AMDS Asset – Waterfront – Boat Ramp, Shore Protection, Waterfront Structure
• AMDS – Observations – Air Quality - Contaminated Land – Ground Water – Stormwater Quality

As a result of your feedback, the Provisional Inventory Asset – Pathway – Shoulder, will not form part of the AMDS Asset Standard.  

Sea Wall has been removed from AMDS Structure Standard and has been replaced with Shore Protection and included in the new Waterfront Asset Standard.

As part of this release, we have included Uniclass guidance, which provides a framework to enable the recording of Uniclass classifications against the AMDS standard consistently across the NZ transport sector.
