Launched yesterday at #ICARRD20, this new report explains why #landdata is critical for secure #landtenure, livelihoods, #foodsecurity, equality and #landrights. Co-published by our partners @cirad.bsky.social and ILC together with @fao.org with contributions by us, the Land Matrix 👀 bit.ly/40wIg3W
Data-driven land insights that turn client stories into smarter decisions.
Client experiences reveal the why.
Data reveals the where and how.
Together, they shape clearer, evidence-led land and housing decisions.

Geospatial (land) data is a critical asset for Defra as it provides insight into land use to inform policy decisions that can be distributed effectively to maximize economic growth whilst supporting nature recovery. The Geospatial Enabling Programme can enable delivery of better policy making to deliver our priorities, by resolving issues within the geospatial data landscape and developing the spatial targeting capability. A lack of accurate geospatial (land) data has meant that historically multiple versions of the same area of land exist across Defra group and there are areas of rural land not currently captured in Defra mapping systems. This inhibits effective policy development through spatial targeting due to differing views of the geometry and land use. This also translates into a poor end user experience, where farmers are asked repeatedly to input the same information into different systems belonging to the Defra group.

The Geospatial (Land) Enabling Programme is evaluating the advantages of establishing a unified geospatial capability that will support business needs enabling enhanced decision-making by providing comprehensive insights into the environment. Geospatial intelligence can support the understanding of the changing landscape over time and the outcome of certain responses. This is the 'What and Where' view for the past, current and future. There is currently no single source, authoritative view (map) of land across England that can be accessed and shared across the Defra group that meets the needs of the businesses. This not only impacts business and policy outcomes due to the quality and absence of data being used but also the effective monitoring of regulation due to being unable to easily identify who occupies a piece of land and the activity being undertaken.
Defra is running a Geospatial Land Model Discovery – some info disclosed in a recent contract award notice www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/47c72...
