    Data management

    The quality of our geographic data - title plans, vector index map and addresses - is of fundamental importance. We have recognised the need for a comprehensive data management environment that will allow us to manage this key asset in a much more pro-active fashion.

    Key among developments in this area is the implementation of a Quality Improvement Flowline (QIF). Land Registry vector indexing, which shows the extent of land registered, will be compared with the current Ordnance Survey (OS) map and Land Registry title plans. QIF will involve new IT systems and established manual processes to compare the three data sets. If necessary the vector indexing and address data will be manually corrected.

    QIF will be piloted at three offices in autumn 2007. The development activity will be accompanied by a comprehensive communication exercise across the whole organisation.
