Samoa Land Administration and Survey Project Update

LEI recently signed a contract extension for the World Bank funded Land Administration and Survey Project in Samoa, part of the WB’s broader Second Infrastructure Asset Management Project (SIAMII). The primary contract was completed in 2006, however supplementary credit has been provided to enable completion of the vertical component of the geodetic network as well as additional assistance in land registration system and land information systems integration.

The international team includes Neil Pullar and Dennis Brady who return to Samoa to continue their work and Mike Poidevin who continues the work previously undertaken by Andrew Dyson under the primary contract. The team are joined by national survey expert Keilani Soloi to continue the work in implementing the land sector component of SIAM II.
