Introduction

• Municipal GIS address the needs of Local
  Administration, Public Works, Planning
  Engineering department, Public Health Department,
  Water supply, Town and Country planning
  Department, Public Safety, Land records, Tourism
  Department etc.
• It manage Municipal tasks such as Property Tax,
  Birth and Death Registration, Socio Economic Data
  management and Holding registration.
• It link the corresponding database with the
  geospatial view of the current municipal area.
• This database can include attributes of each
  individual property with information such as
  ownership, address, house type, built year,
  compliance with the regulations of the building
  authorities, public utilities mapping to the
  plot, street characteristics and amenities.

• A Municipal GIS System involves various of steps
  including
• Computerization of land records.
• Digitization of existing spatial entities such as
  base maps.
• Updation of property records.
• Property Tax Assessment.
• Infrastructure database creation.
• Survey of the individual properties.
• Updation of the non-spatial database on a day to
  day citizen centric level.

INTRODUCTION

• DSSDI is the three dimensional (3D) GIS
  collaborative project between Survey of India and
  IT Department of the Delhi Government. The key
  aspects are
• Creation of comprehensive urban information
  system .
• 3D modeling, texturing, visualization and
  creation of virtual walkthroughs of the NCT of
  Delhi .
• Mapping of underground and overground utilities .
• Land information system (LIS) for maintenance of
  land records, spatial and attribute details up to
  the level of an individual parcel and integrating
  old revenue records with the current survey.

• Property survey involving door-to-door survey of
  all kinds of settlements, their usage and
  classification.
• Installation of wireless IP cameras.
• Geo-portal and decision support system that will
  function as a single window through which all the
  line departments will access information.

Departments

• The 31 line departments of the GNCTD involved in
  the project.
• All departments have identified at least five
  applications including
• Mapping and locating their existing assets/
  land/buildings ,
• Assessing whether they are currently fully
  utilized or under utilized as per the Master Plan
  2021, and
• Whether buildings could be shared by various
  departments to achieve optimum utilization of
  available FAR as per the Master Plan norms.

REASONS

• Low Affordability at Municipality / Panchayat
  level
• Sparse availability of Resources (Technical
  support / Trained Personnel)
• Practicability (Political stability / Low

Suggested Institutional Support
AT METRO CITIES Model of DSSDI can be
adopt.

• AT STATE LEVEL There is need to have GEO
  SPATIAL BUDGET.
• AT DISTRICT LEVEL There is dedicated fund
  for Geospatial development.
• AT TALUKA LEVEL There is a dedicated team of
  Geospatial Personnel to
  utilize fund
• AT MUNICIPALITY LEVEL- Geospatial operations to
  manage, update maintain database system.

Amend list of functions to Municipality to
include Geo Spatial Information.
WE EXPECT THIS CONFERENCE TO MAKE SUCH
RECOMMENDATION TO GOVERNMENT
