A Perth based company, aussiehome.com,
has been formed to provide local information about Perth’s suburbs using
computer map-making skills developed for the resources industry.
The company uses digitally-created interactive suburb maps based on geographical
information systems to display all the information required for consumers
to make home purchase or rental decisions.

Director Mr Gunningham said: "The
site is the first to provide locations of everything that might be useful
to potential homebuyers, including schools, hospitals and sporting facilities.
“At present, the maps cover thirty-five of Perth’s western suburbs and
Fremantle with new suburbs being added every month,” he said.
“For a small monthly sum per
property, real estate agencies are invited to place their homes for sale
or rent on the
|
site.
Other local businesses are also invited to have a presence on the aussiehome.com
maps, with the possibilities being almost endless.
“While the world is rushing to go global, we’re going local,” Fellow Director
Mr Streuli said.
"Everyone can look around the maps, click on a house, have a look inside,
maybe see a floor plan and read the owner’s personal story. Interested parties
can then contact the agent concerned", he said.
