2. • Indian economy is witnessing a surge in
economic development.
• Opening of foreign direct investment (FDI)
in real estate market has created
unprecedented demand for raw land.
• Investments in real market are considered
to be lucrative in terms of high returns.
• Compared to demand for information
related to raw land, very little information
is available.

3. • Information required by the investors is
related to;
(i) Ownership status
(ii)Availability of transport network e.g. metro or
rail/road network etc.
(iii)Existing & proposed land uses
(iv)Availability of services e.g. water supply,
sewerage, drainage etc.
(v)Litigations & permissions from local bodies etc.• Above information is maintained by various
govt departments but not necessarily in a
uniform format.
• Such a situation leads to mismatch between
information held by two departments.

4. • GIS has an important role to play & to act as an
interface between various departments which
holds crucial information on above mentioned
aspects.
• These exterior demand on GIS and globalised
community will affect &shape the design of future
GIS.
1. Firstly, there will be a need for geo referenced base
map and cadastre data.
2. Secondly there will be shift in focus from land
parcels to buildings/property.
3. Third will be a need for vertical information e.g.-
height & underground services.
4. Fourth & most importantly real time updating of

5. • Then there are various activities which are
intertwined with each other related to
complex field of urban development.
• Integration of urban development activities
with land market world wide, induce the
need for regional & national base map
network integrated with cadastre
information.

6. Cadastres will move from
approximate boundary
representation towards survey –
accurate boundary
representations
Cadastres will change from
purely parcel – based systems
towards system of layered
property objects.
Cadastres will expand from 2D
approaches to include 3D and 4D
perspectives.

7. Desperate national and
state – based cadastres,
indicated red and blue,
will become interoperable
at regional and global
levels.
Property interests are
now designed around
strict bearings around
strict bearings and
distances or Cartesian
coordinates but future
cadastres will better
model the organic natural
environment by enabling
fuzzy and dynamic
boundary definitions.

8. LOCATION
Use of satellite imageries in ROHINI PROJECT of Delhi
Development Authority(DDA) was found very useful. This
project or sub city for 1 million population spread over 5000
Ha. Of land is located in the North West of Delhi. Existing Base
maps were at least 10 years old or in some cases simply not
available.
