Site bore reference (v1)

Site bore reference is one of Demiton's published registers for Australian civil construction. Borehole records referenced for a site. Demiton keeps it current from the systems a contractor already runs and publishes the record's shape as a versioned JSON Schema, so the same question works whichever system produced the record.

Part of Projects in the register catalog.

Register ID
site_bore_referenceUse this name to ask for the register. The API calls it a shelf ID.
Each record is
A stateThe current value of something, replaced when it changes.
Status
DeclaredDefined, and fills when a source produces its first record.
Data
OrganisationPrivate to each organisation's own workspace.
Version
v1 (1.0.1)Superseded by v2.

Standards

This register's contract was designed against these standards and laws. Holding these records does not by itself certify compliance.

Systems in the planned connector rollout that can fill this register. Partial means the system holds only some of its fields.

None planned yet.

Fields

18 fields: 9 required, 9 optional.

Required

Every record carries these fields.

sourceText

The register and vintage the answer was resolved from (e.g. the NGIS NSW extract)

Example: Queensland Groundwater Database

contentText

One sentence stating the resolved answer.

Example: 3 registered bores within 500 m of the Cherbourg Water Tr…

projectText

The tenant project whose site coordinate the answer is about.

Example: BWG-2025-003

radius_mWhole numberUnit: m

The search radius the counts and distances were computed at.

Example: 500

horizontal_datumText

The horizontal datum (and, where frame-based, the realisation) the site coordinate was expressed in.

Example: GDA2020

bores_within_radiusWhole numberUnit: dimensionless (named absence, not "count")

Number of registered bores inside radius_m

Example: 3

nearest_bore_distance_mDecimal numberUnit: m

Distance from the project site coordinate to the nearest registered bore within the radius.

Example: 210.5

nearest_bore_rock_depth_mDecimal numberUnit: m (below ground level)

Shallowest depth_top_m of an interval whose MajorLithCode is in the rock allowlist, in the nearest logged bore; null means no rock evidenced, and null is a first-class answer.

Example: 18.2

logged_bores_within_radiusWhole number

How many of those carry a lithology log.

Example: 1

Optional

Present when the source system records them.

datum_epochText

The epoch where the horizontal datum is frame-based.

resolved_atDate and timeISO 8601, with time zone

When the answer was resolved.

Example: 2026-06-10T09:00:00+10:00

register_stateText

The state register the answer came from.

Example: QLD

rock_lith_codeText

The MajorLithCode that evidenced rock.

resolver_versionText

Which resolver/method version produced the answer.

Example: geo-resolver-v2

rock_lith_schemeText

The code list/edition the lithology code belongs to (NGIS MajorLithCode; AS 1726:2017 / AGS 4.2 / DIGGS for other sources)

nearest_logged_bore_idWhole number

The source register's bore_id for the nearest logged bore.

Example: 142207

nearest_bore_drilled_depth_mDecimal numberUnit: m

Total drilled depth of the nearest logged bore.

nearest_logged_bore_distance_mDecimal numberUnit: m

Distance to the nearest bore that carries a log.

Example record

A sample from Bridgeworks Group, Demiton's demonstration company. The values are illustrative; the shape is exactly what the contract describes.

Use this contract

The contract is a standard JSON Schema (draft 2020-12) document, so any JSON Schema validator can check a record against it. Keywords starting with x-demiton- add Demiton's own meaning, such as units and requiredness, and validators ignore them.
