Maps & Mapping Tools
This section contains links to mapping tools you can use to manage your farm. Of particular use for Tasmanian farmers would be The LIST site. In the future FarmPoint will have it's own mapping tool dedicated to the needs of Tasmanian farmers. We have a prototype of MyFarm available. When MyFarm is completed it is envisaged to have tools allowing you to store information specific to your farm such as fence boundaries, crops/livestock in each paddock with a history of rotations, and other features such as dams and irrigation. The farmPoint team will be consulting with farmers to find out their needs for this tool.
You'll also find links here to weather, water, natural values to help you plan and manage your farm.
The Land Information System Tasmania (the LIST ) is a whole of government integrated land information system.
The LIST's data can be broadly divided into two distinct areas. The first area of information includes the on-line access to live and scanned documents and information held by the Land Titles Office. This service is available to members of the public and subscribers. Subscribers to this service, typically real estate agents and solicitors, have the capacity to electronically lodge priority notices.
The second area is spatial information and includes information about topographical data, natural resource data, roads and community facilities, cadastre (property boundaries), images including aerial photo flight lines, administrative boundaries, area information, survey control points and nomenclature. All of this information is freely available through a web browser and additional information is being added based on client demand and data availability.
