3. LIS- a geographic information system for cadastral and land-use mapping,
typically used by local governments
 Consists of land records and associated attributes as well as spatial
information
Land record: includes resource, land use, environmental impact, and fiscal
data.
Basically deals with legal boundaries of land tenure
Provides base layer capable of integration into other geographic systems
 Makes easy to retrieve, create, update, store, view, analyze and publish
land information.

5.  Components of LIS
 A typical LIS uses cadastre as a primary document.
 Two basic components of LIS :
1. Spatial data: Data related to the location or the position of an
object in space or Geographic data or data in graphical form
e.g.map
2. Non spatial data: Data which describes the spatial data e.g. Field
books, plot registers, moth, srestha etc

6. Parcel Based LIS:
based on the land parcel
Land parcels are considered as key
features

7. Guarantee of land ownership and security of tenure
Support for land and property taxation
Develop and monitor land markets
Reduce land disputes
Facilitate rural land reform
Improve urban planning and infrastructure development
Support environmental management
WHY LIS?

8. Western LIS Concept:
Cadastral systems first developed in Europe to support taxation.
Also used for managing and controlling population
Close linkage between title registration and land ownership
Moving towards the development of active land market and use of bank finance for
mortgage to support land market
Multipurpose role of Cadastral system
record all dealings that affect the ownership of land. Eg: ownership, limited rights,
land value, zoning etc.
Parcel as the basic organizational unit

Dutch cadastre system
The web enabled parcel based system
 Pre modelled database ISO standard
 Capable to handle spatial and attribute in a web browsers
 Web based query facility
 Login facility for data security

10. LIS in Nepal
First introduced in 8th periodic plan by government
Project established under MOLRM and started work from Bhaktapur district
Software designed to acquire non spatial data
Separate Department, DOLIA established in 2057 by merging two components, LIS
project in MoLRM and Archieve Section in SD
New software designed named DLIS to manage non spatial data

11. Lack of clear strategy for building, operating and maintaining LIS
Legislative framework not developed for DOLIA regarding its activities
Existing data source-poor quality
Lack of managerial as well as technical experience at all the levels
Insufficient human, financial and physical resources
PROBLEMS
Wednesday, July 31, 201311

12. Literature Review
Maintenance of LIS
Geodetic/Geographic control framework:
LIS starts with spatial reference framework.
Linkage between coordinate system and legal system
 Involves recovering, remonumenting, measuring, reference points used in property
description
Conversion -- legal description to mathematical coordinates
digitizing existing maps (e.g., tax parcel maps)
new coverage - coordinate geometry from deed descriptions
orthophoto or ground survey
METHODOLOGY
Wednesday, July 31, 201312

13. Data Quality
Depends upon source material
Eg: Existing maps, deeds description
cartographic products
occupation boundaries may be different than deed boundaries- resurvey
accuracy should be commensurate with requirements of application
Maintenance of dynamic layer
Transactional updates -accommodate constant changes and maintain historical
records
System needs to move changes in data from entry point (e.g., survey/revenue/LIS
office) to all others using land records.

14. Access and use
data base design is common approach to allow access throughout organization
information products - many different needs must be accommodated
requirement of data depends upon the users. Transparency on data is maintained
according to level of users for eg, read only access to database for public.

15. Institutions
Offices directly involved and having very important role in LIS in Nepal
 DOS: Involved in producing Cadastral data
 DOLRM: Involved in land administrations, daily transactions and updating all land related attribute data
 DOLIA: in creating LIS in Nepal and archieving land records.
 LMTC: Producing human resource for land management activities in Nepal
Stakeholders
 Department of Road, Department of physical planning and construction, Department of Agriculture,
Department of Irrigation, Department of Forest, Nepal Telecom, Nepal electricity Authority etc
 make use of it in their program and activities

26. LA - heavily loaded administrative sector of Nepal
DOLIA is working with very limited human and non-human resources,
However it has completed to establish computerized land information
system.
Present status of LIS shows that Cadastre vision 2014 is impossible to achieve
 Complete legal situation of land, including public rights and restrictions
 The Cadastral mapping will be dead, long live modeling
 ‘Paper and pencil – cadastre’ will have gone
 Public and private sector will work closely together
 Cadastre 2014 will be cost recovering
CHALLENGES
Wednesday, July 31, 201326

27. Very much challenging for our country to fulfill Cadastre vision 2034.
 Move from approximate boundary representation towards survey-accurate
boundary representation
 Focus shift from purely parcel-based systems towards systems of layered
property objects
 Expansion from 2D approaches to include the third (height) and fourth (time)
dimensions
 Updating and accessing of cadastral information in real time
 Making national and state-based cadasters interoperable at regional and global
levels
