In the context of this article, a land information system is defined as a GIS which utilizes land parcels as the link to the non-graphic database attributes. The BLIS was conceived as a GIS designed primarily toserve the urban utility agencies (MEA, MWA and TOT) who share the same land information, such asthe type of buildings and the name of the owners ofland parcels, with the BMA. The BMA collects land tax, building tax and bill-board tax as well as a wide range of other services. While the utility agencies may not need land parcels to calculate the demand for their services or to plan for rate collection, the land parcel framework is very useful for the installation, operationand maintenance of their infrastructure. DOL was invited as a partner since it provided the base map.
