Singapore adds new services on OneMap portal

By Clarice Africa | 19 May 2011

Singapore has just recently added two new services, “Property Prices” and “Space2lease” on the OneMap portal to help individuals interested in the residential property market information and businesses in search of commercial space.

OneMap is a high-resolution one-stop map which enables the public to access location-based services and information of government agencies.

“PropertyPrices”, a new service on OneMap will help individuals interested in purchasing residential property. It will be of interest to property buyers and sellers as it shows transacted prices of both private housing and the Housing and Development Board (HDB) resale flats over the previous year on a map.

Users would also be able to view related information such as the size of the unit, tenure type, and transaction data.

According to an official statement from the Singapore Land Authority (SLA), “PropertyPrices” complements existing property market information services provided by Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) and HDB as It combines property transaction data provided by the URA and HDB on a common map platform.

Meanwhile, Space2Lease is a new service on OneMap which allows businesses to check for government properties available for rent by the SLA and HDB. Information such as the floor area and monthly rental of available commercial space can be viewed at a glance on a map, saving businesses the hassle of having to visit each government agency’s website.

Since its launch in March 2010, OneMap has enabled the public to access a wide range of government information from more than 40 thematic layers of information and value-added services ranging from education, culture, to community, to the environment.
