Burdekin residents and families living interstate or overseas will now have easier access to cemetery information following upgrades to the Shire Council’s cemetery management system, OpusXenta.
The enhancements allow users to access cemetery records directly from smartphones and include digital maps, interactive search functions, and progressively uploaded images of headstones. This means relatives can view memorials remotely, offering comfort and connection even from afar.
Mayor Pierina Dalle Cort said the improvements will provide meaningful benefits to the community.
“Council’s cemetery management system already provides interactive maps and a user-friendly search function, helping residents locate precise burial sites,” Mayor Dalle Cort said. “These new enhancements mean people can now access the system directly from their smartphones, making it more convenient than ever to find information on the go."
The system also continues to support council staff by streamlining cemetery administration, aiding long-term planning, and extending the life of cemetery facilities.
For further information, residents can contact Council’s Customer Service Centre on (07) 4783 9800 or visit burdekin.qld.gov.au.
