The CYPLUS Land Tenure project was designed in order to provide information to the Land Use Program on the tenure types and bondaries, and the restrictions they have on land use. It was considered necessary to know and understand the traditional titles, interests, and associations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with the land.
The desired outputs of this report were a GIS layer showing all tenure types and marine zoning systems, a statement of issues on land tenure and a regional assesment of the extent of native title, and finally a Department of Lands' policy paper on the nature, purpose and administration of then current land tenures on teh Cape York Peninsula
