The commonalities between <strong>SDI</strong>s and the objectives Land Administration systems provide<br />
strong grounds for the derivation of shared evaluation and performance indicators.<br />
This article has sought to show how one such model, The RRR Toolbox, could be applied<br />
in the <strong>SDI</strong> context.<br />
In essence, RRRs are a challenge for both <strong>SDI</strong>s and Land Administration: they exhibit<br />
a form of dualism being both spatial and land related entities. The lessons learnt from<br />
research into RRRs offer utility to <strong>SDI</strong> practitioners. It can improve the management of<br />
both RRRs and <strong>SDI</strong> through the use of the broad range of principles and tools. Preliminary<br />
studies show that these principles are highly relevant to <strong>SDI</strong> initiatives; however,<br />
further investigation is needed to test the Toolbox’s full utility within the <strong>SDI</strong> discipline.<br />
