3. A Land Information System is a Geographic
Information System for cadastral and land use
mapping, consisting of an accurate, current
and reliable land record cadastre and
associated attributes

4. ● LIS is a digital system having
spatial(graphical) and non spatial data for
each land holding(parcel)
● Since the two are maintained in digital form it
is possible to edit, maintain, rectify and keep
the record up to date with least efforts
5. ● Land information is an integral part of
government,non profit and private sector
activities
● Adopting GIS/LIS techniques can advanced
broader social purposes by making more
effective public decisions and by using natural
resources in a more optimal way

10. ● Modern LIS are computer based
● The data for these layers may be stored on a
single computer
● Alternatively,they may be stored on the
computers of the custodial authorities and
accessed by networking or other means
● In order to function effectively,the LIS must
process one essential attribute

13. Western LIS Concept
● Cadastral system first developed in Europe to
support taxation
● Also used for managing and controlling
population
● Close linkage between title registration and land
ownership
14. ● Moving towards the development of active
land market and use of bank finance for
mortgage to support land market
● Multipurpose role of cadastral system
● Record all dealings that affect the ownership
of land Eg:ownership,limited rights,land
value,zoning etc
● Parcel as the basic organizational unit
35. Way forward
• Koreas Eximbank will fund feasibility study to digitialize Sri
Lanka Land Management System
• Feasibility study will seek to establish a Land Data
Infrastructure(LDI) and LIS
• The project will enable the government of Sri Lanka to
integrate the land parcel fabrics into LDI and LIS and
enhance the ability to manage the city administration using
LIS for 24 municipalities
