Project Name: Ethiopia MASSREG – Tablet-based Land Registration Application
Client:  Ministry of Agriculture
Country:  Ethiopia


Objective

MASSREG project objectives were to develop, provide, and test a ready-to-use mobile application for the complete requirements of field-level cadastral survey and adjudication data collection in the rural areas of Ethiopia.

Project Description

The project included the following 3 main stages –

  1. Desk review and analysis of existing market trends related to field data collection applications.
  2. System design, development, testing and installation.
  3. Training and implementation.

During the first stage, Sivan Design studied the land registration processes (SLLC – 2nd Level Land Certification) in the rural sector of Ethiopia and analyzed the integration of the new MASSREG application in the context of Ethiopian NRLAIS – National Rural Land Administration Information System. In addition, existing market trends of mobile GIS applications were assessed, including a field data collection pilot.

During the second stage, the company prepared a detailed system design document which consist of functional (business processes, user interface) and technical (technology, architecture) aspects. Accordingly, the company developed and modified the new MASSREG, including its integration with the backend NRLAIS. The system was tested and installed.

As part of the last stage, Sivan Design conducted training for system administrators and users. The users training included frontal and field workshops.

The project included the preparation and provision of a comprehensive user manual, training materials, and follow-up services for technical maintenance of users’ support.

Technology and architecture

The system was developed using pure open-source technologies – Qfield for the tablet/mobile field application; QGIS for Backoffice data preparation, synchronization and editing; PostgreSQL database + POST GIS for DB; GeoServer for GIS Server; and OpenLayers for web GIS viewing.

Following a tedious tendering process which included a preliminary proof of concept stage, Sivan Design was awarded a contract to develop, deploy and implement a new technology for the management of 3D Cadaster. 

The project is a direct continuation of the new 3D parcels registration law which was passed at the Israeli parliament some few months ago. 

As part of the project, Sivan Design will use 3D GIS technology and 3D cadastral plans (CAD) to design and develop the new 3D cadastral management system and assist the Survey Office of Israel (Ministry of Construction and Housing) to implement the system in its daily work.
