Web-GIS Enabled Property Survey and Digitization for Urban Local Bodies

Web-GIS Enabled Property Survey and Digitization for Urban Local Bodies

About the Client

A municipal corporation overseeing urban planning, property tax collection, and civic infrastructure across multiple city zones. The client needed a technology-driven solution to streamline property record management and improve revenue through accurate mapping and assessment.

The Challenge

The municipality lacked updated and verified property data, resulting in inefficient tax collection, poor visibility of unregistered properties, and delayed service delivery. Manual records, inconsistent formats, and scattered ownership details made auditing and planning highly challenging.

The Solution

We deployed a Web-GIS based property survey platform integrating geospatial tools, ground surveys, and centralized asset tracking.

Key components included:

  • Geo-tagged surveys of properties across city zones
  • Property classification based on usage, size, and ownership
  • Digitization of legacy records and manual maps
  • Integration with municipal tax and service databases
  • Customized dashboards for monitoring and dispute resolution
  • Citizen portal access for property verification and updates

The Impact

The solution enabled a complete digital transformation of property data and revenue management:

  • Identified and mapped over 50,000 previously unregistered properties
  • Boosted property tax coverage and collection efficiency
  • Enabled faster verification and service grievance redressal
  • Improved transparency and auditability for future urban planning
  • Scalable system extendable to other municipal departments
