I did go through it a while back & grouped each State's info together, from where it was previously spread out all over the page, but I noticed that some new stuff for the NT has appeared down the bottom of the page, rather than with the rest of the NT entries.

While I know that states in Oz and states in USA aren't QUITE the same, they are similar enough in "making the big national elephant bite-sized enough to not choke on" the same there as that job is here.  We've had good luck "digesting" our giant rail network (2007 federal public-domain import) by "eating" it state-by-state, and it works (largely), as we aren't choking on the immensity of it as it originally landed in our laps as a ginormous amount of data.  Well, it still is, but "ginormous data" is best eaten one bite (state) at a time.  It's true in crowdsourced projects as it is in real life:  many hands make light work!

And yeah:  hospitals:   Good on ya' for doin' that!

Good luck with the data integration,
