With its wealth of Geographic Information System (GIS) expertise, Lands Department develops and provides handy web-map service portals to users across Government Bureaux/Departments (B/Ds) as well as the general public as follows.
The CSDI Portal was launched in December 2022 as the government initiative to support the development of smart city in Hong Kong. Its goal is to serve as an one-stop spatial data portal for different stakeholders to discover, interpret, share, and reuse the diverse spatial data for developing smart applications.
The Common Spatial Data Infrastructure (CSDI) Use Cases showcase real examples that leverage the open spatial datasets available on the CSDI Portal, through storytelling and dashboard applications. The Storytelling Application introduce an interactive platform through engaging the public in spatial data driven narratives. The District-based Spatial Information Dashboard features simple interactive data visualisation tools for presenting the district-based analytic results that are of interest and provide valuable insights to the public.

To demonstrate the potential application of 3D Visualisation Map and spatial data CSDI portal in December 2022, “Open3Dhk” transformed a large variety of spatial data into user-friendly applications which can support diverse users by the general public, the academia and professionals. Through the interactive functions on the platform, users can view and measure 3D Visualisation Map, 3D Indoor Map and panoramic street-level imagery (Streetscape 360), building information, approximate lot boundaries and other real-time spatial data.
The GeoInfo Map is a public web map service which was launched in May 2010. It provides free and convenient public access to accurate maps of Hong Kong, as well as providing the location and related information about various public facilities and services. It enables government departments to release to the public their latest geospatial data with satisfactory system performance and user experience. The public can conveniently access digital maps using various platforms, including tablet computers and smartphones, as well as integrate various geospatial data for different applications.
LandsD launched the HKSAR Geospatial Information Hub (GIH) in 2004, to support the internal operation and information sharing within the Government. Through the GIH, geospatial data and related information collected from various departments can be effectively distributed and shared across the whole government.
LandsD has been collaborating with different government B/Ds in making GIH an ideal platform for disseminating geospatial information with the aim of delivering better public services. Advanced functions in the GIH, including spatial analysis and trend display functions, have been developed to facilitate efficient visualisation and retrieval of spatial data by officers in government departments. This facilitates their daily work and decision-making processes, thus enhancing their services to the public.
Hong Kong Map Service 2.0 (HKMS 2.0) is a one-stop platform providing round-the-clock service for ordering and downloading digital map products, paper map products and cadastral survey records to the public.
