Salmat and the SA Government to Deliver Cutting Edge New Land Information System

Announcement posted by Salmat 25 Mar 2011

Salmat and the South Australian Government today ushered in a new era for land information management in South Australia.
 
The eight year partnership will deliver a state-of-the-art land information management system within three years that will re-establish South Australia as a national leader in land administration and management.
 
“The integrated land information system (ILIS) is one of the world’s most advanced land information systems. This cutting-edge technology provides a single system for land management, information gathering and the execution of the land transactions for government and the public,” said Grant Harrod, Salmat’s Chief Executive Officer.
 
“I am excited that this proven system will deliver greatly enhanced land management functionality for the South Australian Government while vastly improving the experience for the South Australian public,” he said.
 
Salmat’s ILIS, designed for governments and land registries, can be used to identify and register land interest, deliver survey accurate geospatial data, record property usage and allow government guaranteed tenure. The system may be linked to a sophisticated data and image repository that provides satellite and aerial photography, cadastral data, lodgement or dealing images and specific information about services such as utilities and building permits.
 
The Northern Territory Government Department of Lands and Planning originally developed the Integrated land Information System (ILIS) and recently contracted exclusively with Salmat to commercialise it for sale and use world-wide as a leading edge, web based, Torrens Title Land Information System.
 
The South Australian project means the Salmat ILIS will be used in three Jurisdictions across Australia (Northern Territory, Australian Capital Territory and South Australia). Salmat and the Northern Territory Government are looking to build on this success with other jurisdictions in Australia and around the world as they seek to upgrade their aging systems to prepare for the new era of electronic conveyancing solutions.
 
The project will be undertaken over the next three years.

About the project:

- This is a fully managed and hosted service.
- It is a guaranteed service-based solution and Salmat is the prime contractor and partner.
- Salmat’s history of performance in all our national Land Registry businesses is above 99.5% uptime during extended working hours all year round.
- This contract is the first successful sale of the Northern Territory Government/Salmat commercialisation arrangement.
- The future markets are the remaining jurisdictions in Australia who still operate old Land Information Systems and the rest of the world. For example, Salmat has signed a MOU with China and is proceeding to contract negotiations.
- With three Registries utilising one solution, the development and the future emerging business (such as Electronic Conveyancing initiatives) can be delivered in a more cost effective manner.
