The deal expands MacDonald Dettwiler's ability to extract land information from satellite images, the company said.
Managing land information effectively is a key factor in achieving successful land administration and sustainable land development.
As an example, online land information system is operating in a decentralized manner with updated information since 2010.
How such objectives affect or should affect land surveying practice and design and implementation of land information systems is highlighted.
Based on the survey analysis, several behavior interventions and land information policy suggestions were proposed for the specific sector.
This study adopted the diffusion paradigm to study the implementation and development of land information systems (LIS).
Informal land arrangements continue to emerge as a result of the slow pace of land adjudication (formalization) and updating of land information systems.
The trend towards computerization of land information systems has only put focus on already existing formal land tenure arrangements, leaving out the informal social tenure arrangements.
The CHIP conducted five waves of household surveys, in 1988 , 1995 2002, 2007 and lastly 2008, but only the waves in 1995, 2002 and 2008 have land information.
In this context, land information systems (LISs) are designed to fulfill the requirements related to land, to provide tenure assurance and to manage natural resources sustainably.
The components of the GIS database include land information, buildings, existing developments, planning information, development plans, utilities, community facilities, transportation, environment and the socio-economy database.
