Capabilities of non-proprietary commercially available databases in support of sustainable land information management infrastructures

Le Roux, Pierre

This paper outlines and briefly discusses the significant advances in the geospatial information management capabilities of commercially available databases which are having a great impact on the design, implementation and operations of land information management infrastructures at national, regional and local levels. These capabilities are partly facilitating the use of long established and generic IT practices, tools, methodologies and data models in the deployment of enterprise-wide and networked Land Information Management (LIM) Systems across and thereby eliminating the geospatial islands of automationn that is still commonplace in many land information LIM environments.
