A municipality in New Zealand called North Shore City has made its water, waste water
and storm water network infrastructure available on the web. Not only is the location of the underground infrastructure accessible, but users can query each facility to determine properties like type of pipe, diameter, and when it was installed. Remarkably and what may be the beginning of a trend toward greater openess of utility networks, this service appears to be open, so that residents, utilities, telcos and other interested parties operating in the area are able to access this information.
