The All Hazards Spatial Infrastructure Project has been initiated by NRE Tas, to manage the replacement of the ageing LIST infrastructure and deliver leading-edge spatial infrastructures and services to government, industry and the Tasmanian community.
The Project will deliver a new LISTmap and Common Operating Platform.
The Project is part of the Tasmanian Government's commitment to implement recommendations from the Royal Commission into National Natural Disaster Arrangements.
Project update – October 2025
The All Hazards Spatial Infrastructure Project reached an important milestone in September 2025, with the completion of the Minimum Viable Product. The Minimum Viable Product includes a set of basic infrastructure, security and functionality requirements agreed upon by the Project Implementation Team.
Features of the Minimum Viable Product include:
Secure storage and management of data in Amazon Web Services architecture.
User interface with 2D map interactivity, viewer with basic tools, and basic layer management.
A workspace component, which will allow users to create, save and share maps.
User authentication and authorisation.
Compatibility with existing NRE Tas infrastructure.
The next stages of the project will build on the Minimum Viable Product by refining and enhancing the existing features. It will also include developing additional system functionality and capabilities, such as:
The project team will continue to engage stakeholders for feedback and testing as the project progresses.

During these stages the project team will engage stakeholders for input, review and testing activities.
Project update – March 2025
Following a multi-stage open tender procurement process a contract has been awarded to Tasmanian company Geometry Pty Ltd.
NRE Tas will work closely with Geometry Pty Ltd to deliver a new leading edge LISTmap and Common Operating Platform which allows for future system development and growth to accommodate technological advances.
LISTmap and Common Operating Platform currently provide over 3100 spatial datasets over Tasmania. The Common Operating Platform is a critical operational infrastructure used by emergency services organisations in the Prevention, Preparedness, Response and Recovery (PPRR) of emergency incidents such as bushfire, flood, health, biosecurity and environmental incidents.
Project update - June 2024
