There is a growing awareness that cadastres (in urban and rural areas) forms a critical input to all administrative, legal, financial and planning decisions and is the crux for any development solutions.

Systematising the exisitng modes of handling land records needs to change over from the conventional system of village/cadastral maps, "un-registered" and non-standardised cadastral GIS, non-uniform structures of record of rights, linguistic variation in regional database - all of which are in hard copy register to a system of seamless Cadastral GIS across districst, states and even the whole nation.

Re-survey of land records - incorporating village maps and ground-survey data of land ownership and recortds is yet another important capability that can be built by using Spatial Technology solutions. NST is working in these areas and for a national standard and a seamlessly oparable digital database of Cadatres.

NST with high degree of expertise in Photogrammetry, mapping and systems design has developed a sophisticated LIS model for Land Information System (LIS) - where land records computerization with the cadastral maps can provide innovative land management solutions and public enterprise.
