Sha Yu Hin made this Freedom of Information request to Lands Department

This request has been closed to new correspondence from the public body. Contact us if you think it ought be re-opened.

Lands Department did not have the information requested.

Dear Lands Department,

I am a research assistant in the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and I am working on a project on land use in the past 20 years. As the Digital Topographic Map iB10000 has been publicly available and free since April, I would like to ask if the older versions of iB10000 are also available and free. In particular, I would like to make a request for all verions of iB10000 maps from 2001 to 2020.

Yours faithfully,
Sha Yu Hin
