Great feedback Alex! Always great working with government on projects.

It's a two-way street. If agencies have spatial datasets to share, they
should consider publishing on https://data.sa.gov.au/ with an ODbL
compatible licence, or CC-BY-4.0 with waiver.

The more data they provide for common good, the more the OSM community can
map with them.
