The data behind Land Explorer costs >£20k per year. This is way beyond what any one org can carry.
We believe that groups of all sizes should have access to info about their communities, not just well-resourced developers.

We’re working with Shared Assets to build practical tools that make organising easier. If you’re campaigning on housing, Land Explorer is totally free to use

That's why we’re working with Shared Assets to build tools shaped by organisers themselves.

There’s a move at the Land Registry to make land data more open.. but there’s still a way to go.
Currently vital data for land justice is behind a huge paywall (>£20k per year).
There should be a license that allows civic access to this data.
