What is WALISWhat is WALIS
Established in 1981, WALIS is the longest standing LIS/GIS cooperative arrangement in Australia. WALIS is not a GIS but is
the WA government’s mechanism for coordinating the management of spatial information. It is a partnership of
government agencies working with business, education and the general community to SHARE, MANAGE, IMPROVE and PROMOTE
the State’s geographic information

WALIS VisionWALIS Vision WALIS vision Seamless access to WA spatial information, from anywhere, for any use,
by anybody.
Objectives: 1. Strengthening and expanding partnerships (people).
2. Providing geographic information to support business outcomes (information).
3. Implementing an infrastructure to enable full integration of geographic information (technology).
4. Setting and maintaining both policy and governance structure to support the WALIS community goals (framework).

WALIS EPCWALIS EPC
The WALIS Executive Policy Committee (EPC) is the governing body of WALIS and comprises Chief Executive Officers and Directors General of eight WALIS member agencies that have custodianship responsibilities for the majority of the WA Government’s spatial datasets.
It is currently chaired by the Chief Executive, Landgate. The role of the EPC is to provide strategic direction and endorse overall policy and strategic plans, ensuring alignment with Whole of Government policies and priorities for sharing spatial information. As of October 2006, the EPC is also the peak body responsible for the ongoing implementation and growth of SLIP.

State Land Information Capture Program State Land Information Capture Program (SLICP)(SLICP)
Western Australian Land Information SystemGovernment of Western Australia
State Land Information Capture State Land Information Capture Program (SLICP)Program (SLICP)
The SLICP is designed to reduce cost and avoid duplication
in spatial data capture across the state of Western Australia
by planning, recording and acquiring the information through
one channel to ensure the most strategic use of resources.
The program runs annually (by financial year - July 1 to
30 June cycle) and is scheduled eighteen months in advance
due to significant planning overheads.

Shared Land Information Platform Shared Land Information Platform (SLIP)(SLIP)
SLIP is revolutionising the way government geographic information
is used and shared.
It is being implemented by the WALIS community and will provide
numerous benefits to government, business, industry and the
community.
SLIP underpins the work of the WALIS community and will be a key
focus for WALIS during the years 2007-2010.
