Kick Off involves 22 Member States

Posted on 22/10/10

EULIS held the Kick Off Conference for Project LINE on 21st September 2010. Over the next two years Project LINE (Land INformation for Europe) aims to deliver the next generation EULIS (European Land Information Service) platform.

Land registration authorities across Europe will be able to share register information with professional customers more easily if this collaborative project to introduce new technology is successful.

At the launch conference for Project LINE delegates discussed their requirements for the next generation EULIS 2.0 platform. The specifications rely on the involvement from Land Registry organisations and other key stakeholders such as the e-Justice Working Party to ensure alignment with the wider e-Justice programme.

The conference gathered together the community of official land registry organisations across 22 EU member states (including 24 land registry organisations). Other European organisations such as representatives of the European Council and ELRA also actively participated in the conference.

“The next generation EULIS platform will be aligned with the newly launched European e-Justice portal, which includes Land Register content and will give us future opportunities to bring more services and products to a European audience” said Bengt Kjellson, Chairman of Project LINE.

Funded by the European Commission’s (Directorate General Justice), Project LINE is being supported by the Civil Justice programme for a two-year period from 1 September 2010.
