Shared land information platform (SLIP)
Britton, D.
Administrative and cultural barriers have traditionally hampered cross-government initiatives and partnerships. Multiple government agencies are responsible for different geospatial and land related information. As noted by Enemark (et al.), the historical development of Australian data models still limits their ability to reach their full potential to integrate a wide range of land related data like their European counterpartss. Furthermore, as Wallace, Williamson et al. have pointed out, from the viewpoint of land administration efficiency, Australiaas federal system is characterised by an outmoded constitution, ill-equipped for modern circumstance due to its distribution of powers: ideally, a national government would be responsible for the organisation of basic standards for the capture of detailed spatial information.
