Abstract
The Government of Papua New Guinea is creating the Land and Geographic Information System (LAGIS) for land management. LAGIS consists of a textual land information system (LIS) and a digital cadastral database (DCDB). The development of the DCDB is outlined. The challenge in Papua New Guinea was to create a DCDB project which could realistically sustain itself under local conditions while still offering a product design with a level of accuracy sufficient to make the product valuable to the user community. Aspects of the production environment in Papua New Guinea which had to be accommodated during project design and the evolution of the data capture methodology for the DCDB are discussed.
