Making Life Easy

Online Integrated Land

Information System (INLIS)





To buy property in Singapore, all a citizen needs to do is to log on to the

website http:// inlis.gov.sg and extract land details from the Ministry of Law’s

Integrated Land Information Services (INLIS). After locating the property, you

can locate the title document and ascertain the lot area, last transaction price

and encumbrances. The system is enabled for Geographical Information System

(GIS) and ecommerce. This application is quite popular with the real estate

industry in Singapore. There is no subscription fee for this service, but users

pay between S$5 and S$24 to obtain land information they need.

Government Electronic Mail

System (GEMS)





The Government’s centralized mail system is an enterprise wide system

offering the government ministries and statutory bodies connectivity. Based on

Lotus Notes, a government-wide directory of current mail users can interact with

the system everyday for intra and inter-organization workflow and document

exchange. This facilitates different government bodies to work in real-time on

the same project.

Artificial intelligence (AI)





BP-Expert is an intelligent plans checking system that checks plans.

BP-Expert uses AI to interpret features-based CAD plans against building control

regulations and correcting any design errors before submitting plans for

approval electronically. Only building plans are captured in a features-based

CAD form and it can be put through the BP-Expert. The AI engine drives the

BP-Expert to check architectural designs against expert rules, which are

building control codes and regulations. The screen lights up red boxes as they

indicate areas of non-compliance. It informs you about areas of non-conformance.

Corrections, once made, will indicate green lights on the screen to confirm that

all is clear. It is encouraged by the Building Plan Branch of BCD Ministry of

National Development, Singapore.

Road Information Management

System (RIMS)





This system manages the nation’s multi-billion dollar transportation

infrastructure. RIMS began to streamline LTA operations and turn the once labor

intensive process into productive electronic business workflow. The information

in its central database, pertaining to traffic regulation and management,

transport planning, vehicles management and road safety is a resourceful

repository of all data related to road transport. The system itself consists of

several modules that addresses all of these aspects.
