Overview

Every major decision about your stormwater network depends on one thing…

The quality of the data beneath it.

Asset renewals. Flood modelling. Development approvals. Disaster recovery. Asset valuations.

But what if the information you are relying on is incomplete, inaccurate or simply wrong?

The Victorian Auditor-General found councils had confidence in just 20% of their drainage asset data, compared with 45% for roads.

Yet stormwater networks continue to underpin billion-dollar infrastructure decisions.

When heavy rain falls, assumptions become liabilities.

Disaster funding may depend on proving the condition of your assets before the event. Developers rely on the same network data to design new communities. Councils assess those designs. Utilities build around them. When everyone is working from different versions of the truth, risk compounds.

In one year alone, 29 Victorian councils identified $175.3 million in infrastructure assets they didn’t know they owned.

So ask yourself one question.

If your network flooded tomorrow, could you confidently demonstrate what assets existed, where they were located, and what condition they were in before the water arrived?

This virtual event, hosted by Nexus42, and sponsored by RapidMap explores, dives deep into what changes when assumptions are replaced with evidence.

You will see how field verification, surveyed levels and validated asset data provide a stronger foundation for planning, maintenance, flood resilience, valuation and investment decisions.

Join four industry experts as they tackle the questions every infrastructure owner should be asking. Questions such as…

  • What condition is our network really in?
  • Can it cope with today’s rainfall events?
  • What is it actually worth?
  • What are the risks we can’t currently see?
  • And more…

If you are responsible for stormwater infrastructure, asset management, engineering, water management or finance, this virtual event will change the way you think about the network beneath your feet.

Key Takeaways

  • What field verification finds when it meets a fifty-year-old drainage record, and how often the record was wrong
  • Why a known flooding hotspot is frequently not caused by what everyone assumed
  • How to get network-wide visibility without using your budget CCTV-ing the whole network
  • What actually changes in a flood model when levels are measured rather than assumed
  • Why councils and developers arguing about downstream capacity are usually both reading the same bad map
  • How condition evidence changes a valuation, and why age-based assumptions are getting harder to defend
  • What you’d need on file to satisfy a disaster funding claim, and whether you have it

The questions to ask about your stormwater data before someone else asks them for you

“Councils had high confidence in the accuracy of just 20% of their drainage, bridge and culvert data, compared with 45% for roads.”
