  • Abstract:
    The paper is based on research developing property analysis and valuation techniques within a geographic information system (GIS). Applications include, Market Research for land use and property development, general Property Market Analysis, Value Mapping, and Computer Assisted Mass Appraisal (CAI@-L4) models for residential property taxation. The value of land and property is a function of economic, legal, physical and locational factors. Land and property markets, by their nature, exhibit high degrees of market imperfection, not least the lack of knowledge. Consequently, access to comprehensive, reliable and up-to-date transaction evidence, is a prerequisite to property research, analysis and valuation. Both market research and valuation techniques depend on the collection and analysis of relevant data. Historically, the application of these techniques took place within a non-spatial environment. Ultimately, market data supports any estimate of value. Data searches and collection can prove both time consuming and expensive in relation to the fee earning potential of a valuation report. GIS can facilitate in a spatial context, the storage, manipulation and analysis of data, in a fraction of the time previously required.
