LIS developed by the Survey Department is a geographic information system that created using the Digital data of the land surveys. It is designed specifically to contain the spatial information related to the defined area so called land parcel. The input for this LIS is land parcel boundaries. The said land parcel and its information could be obtained from the different data layers shown in this LIS. LIS shows number of data layers having different data accuracies. The land parcel information extracted from the Cadatral survey data. (CM Data) and the digital survey data of statutory surveys other than the cadastral Surveys are the most accurate data in the LIS. The digitized old survey plans and related attributes are also stored in the LIS, however, its spatial accuracy is low. Digital data of those surveys undergo several data processing steps in order to convert to the LIS data model which could be viewed through the web. General public can view the information related surveyed land parcel while reaching to its location. The searching facilities are provided based on District or Divisional Secretariat’s Division or Grama Niladari Division and based on any location. Details of the land parcels can be viewed such as ; the parcel number and the computed extent based on the surveyed land parcel boundaries at the time of survey, name of Land, Land use and the related references. The details of the Land Title certificate issued under the Bim Saviya programme also can be viewed through this web site and it will be very important service for the bankers, real estate mangers as well as the general public, who could make use this to verify the details.

Surveyor General, Being the responsible authority for the Land Information System (LIS) of the country, mandated by the Survey Act No. 17 of 2002, expresses the pleasure of launching the Land Information System through the worldwide web as a dynamic product of the Survey Department; the National Institution, which leads in all the developing projects in Sri Lanka. Production and Dissemination of parcel based land information as a dynamic system through the Internet open avenues towards drastic changes in Location Based Trends (LBT) for new thinking among the generations in use of Geo-spatial Data. LIS is a 'Tool for legal, administrative and economic decision making support and an aid for planning and development, which consists of a database containing spatially referenced land related data for a defined area and procedures and techniques for the systematic collection, updating, processing and distribution'. The LIS has been sourced with the field surveyed data under the Land Title Registration Project, currently being proceeds as “Bimsaviya”. The Digital Geo-spatial data collected for preparation of Cadastral Maps have been processed to create a parcel based LIS and attributed with Tenement Information, collected for the requirements for issue of land titles. The individual land parcels of the published area can be interactively visualized with the related attributes. However, the parcel ownerships have been censored at owners’ identity and secure purpose. The information of the progressive areas at availability of field surveyed data have been published and the system will be updated for new surveys in due course.
