## Curator notes

GeoJSON FeatureCollection of current hazards, crashes, congestion, flooding, roadworks and special events (537 features at probe); /v2/events/past-one-hour returns only events changed in the last hour — poll that for deltas. Whole collection returned in one response, no pagination. Rate limit: shared public key is 100 requests/minute globally. Licence CC BY 4.0 (data.qld.gov.au dataset record); data provided 'as is'.
