Land Observatory online
A global online platform on large scale investments into land was released recently on www.landobservatory.org. Any user logged on to the system can provide spatial and context information on land deals. The idea behind landobservatory.org is to complement governmental information on land deals with crowd-sourced data that comes from the users and by that strongly improving the data availability- and quality on land deals.
landobservatory.org is currently being developed and coordinated by the Center for Development and Environment (CDE), University of Bern and the International Land Coalition (ILC).
