Land survey maps will be available online starting tomorrow, 01 August 2025, Surveyor General Y.G. Gnanathilaka announced today.
He made this statement during a media briefing held at the Government Information Department on the 225th anniversary of the Survey Department.
The anniversary falls tomorrow (01), and the department also plans to issue a commemorative stamp to mark the occasion.
Addressing the media, Surveyor General Gnanathilaka said until now, survey maps were provided only through departmental offices, and that with this new system, the public can obtain maps by making online payments.
The land information database of the Survey Department is linked with the Land Registry Department, enabling the public to access land-related data.
According to the Surveyor General, all maps and plans have now been digitized, and nearly 2.4 million land plots have been archived in the department’s data repository.
Additionally, land survey-related information has been integrated into the department’s system, and when issuing land title certificates, digitized survey sketches can be accessed via the department’s website. (Newswire)
