Salmat and the South Australian Government have agreed to implement a land information management system within three years, using a platform originally developed in the Northern Territory. Salmat will manage and host the service for the SA Government.

“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.
