Housing and employment land supply program
The housing and employment land supply program guides the effective management of land supply in South Australia for residential, commercial and industrial purposes.
The State Government produces a report on the program on an annual basis.
The 2010 report (PDF 29MB):
- monitors the implementation of The 30-Year Plan for Greater Adelaide
- identifies the total amount of land needed and sets annual rolling targets to reflect changes in the market and changes to the rate of population growth
- serves to ensure there is land capacity to meet annual housing and employment targets and the capacity is spread equitably across the region
- helps infrastructure agencies with planning to ensure that infrastructure and urban development is effectively and efficiently coordinated
- provides a spatial guide to local government to help align regional implementation strategies.
The report also identifies actions that state and local governments can take over a five-year period to implement planning policies and ensure that land supply meets demand and the necessary infrastructure can be provided.
For an alternative version of the report see Planning contacts.

- completed allotments in land divisions
- building approvals
- other summary information including; median lot size, share of infill versus greenfield development.
The report is published every six months to relect data to the end of the December and June quarters.
The most recent report is the Residential Land Development Activity Report, December 2011 (PDF 1.3MB). For an alternative version of the report see Planning contacts.

Industrial land database
The industrial land database aims to achieve efficient and effective economic development by providing accurate and up-to-date information on the supply, location and availability of industrial land.
The database is primarily a planning tool covering Greater Adelaide and the transport corridors extending north to Port Wakefield and south east to Tailem Bend. It lists all industrial sites located in industrial zones, as well as sites with an industrial land use outside these zones.
Industrial information has been entered into a geographical information system (GIS), enabling mapping and spatial analysis of the data. The GIS also allows the industrial database to be integrated with other standard data sets, including the Australian Bureau of Statistics’ population and housing census, and other data themes, including cadastral and land ownership information.
This presentation (PowerPoint 12.9MB) provides more detailed information.
The 2008 database package is available for purchase in either MapInfo or ArcMap/ArcView versions for $950 from the Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure. Payment can be made by:
