Gazetteer Management and Web Mapping System
Leicester City Council, a unitary local government authority, is procuring a replacement gazetteer management and web mapping system covering its Street and Address Gazetteers and associated public and internal mapping services. The supplier will migrate approximately 5,000 streets, 170,000 Basic Land & Property Units and their polygons, together with around 650 layers or tables, 200 map sets, multiple system versions, macros, styling, templates, themes and existing functionality. The replacement must support web mapping for several hundred users per day, limited public data input for consultations and issue reporting, maps embedded on the Council website, and the textual FindMyLocal service. No estimated contract value, contract duration or delivery region is specified; delivery is therefore understood to be for Leicester City Council’s services and users. The most critical qualification requirement stated is the ability to deliver the full migration and configuration of the existing gazetteer and mapping data and functionality, while accommodating future formal changes arising from local government reform, statutory requirements and data governance obligations.
