Land

Management

Connecting councils, contractors, and landowners in an efficient and secure way to maximise the investment and effort put into managing environmental tasks and outcomes.

Weeds in Australia

According to DCCEEW the cost of weeds to agricultural industries is estimated at $4 billion per year. There are approximately 3000 different weed species in Australia.

Around $180 million is spent at a federal and local level annually to combat invasive weeds.

Every council seems to have a different way of engaging with spraying contractors and landowners, often leading to an opaque process that lacks efficiency, coordination, oversight, and governance.

Contractors often lack the tools to effectively plan and coordinate spraying jobs, and regularly rely on multiple different systems for planning, scheduling, timesheets, collecting and store compliance data.

Welcome to OpenRoad

An all-in-one solution for managing the fight against noxious weeds in Australia.

Whether you are a council, land-manager, or contractor, OpenRoad empowers you manage environmental tasks more effeciently.

OpenRoad allows you to create assessment records (digital twins) of geograhical assets and record data points (locations, quantities, photographs) about weeds, pests, and land management activities. Those records can be turned in jobs and assigned to contractors or internal teams, along with weather, scheduling and compliance data.
