It started by going over and arranging paper title files, scanning, uploading, processing and binding of relevant data, and ended by allowing every Nigerian to retrieve basic geospatial information online from FELIS website for free.<\/p>\n<p>Sivan Design\u2019s Land Information System (LIS) flexibility allowed fields and values customization according to specific client needs. The LIS is one of the core parts that accumulate the Geo-ERP\u2122 solution.<\/p>\n<p>Plots information was digitized, geo-referenced and uploaded to the system. Title records were then linked to those plots. During this time consuming process each data insertion team process was monitored by a quality assurance (QA) person that was conducting data validity and quality checks and assuring data integrity.<\/p>\n<p>The next phase was to establish completely new service center and offices. The newly setting required wiring infrastructure, hardware, peripherals, software, reliable Internet connection, furnishing and accessories. All, down to printer paper, were supplied by Sivan Design to meet client\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n<p>The most comprehensive system would be useless if its users would not have the knowhow on how to benefit from it. Sivan Design, in tight collaboration with the ministry personnel, carefully studied their needs and was able to design business processes to meet land regulations.<\/p>\n<p>Following system assembly, the ministry users were thoroughly trained from basic computer skills via GIS capabilities to the services and information provided specifically by FELIS system.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h5 class=\"bomba\">Sivan Design\u2019s Land Information System (LIS) flexibility allowed fields and\u00a0values customization according to specific client needs<\/h5>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>The project included many activities and services all of which were provided by Sivan Design:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Infrastructure of newly established service center including electricity, telephony and network wiring<\/li>\n<li>Hardware equipment including servers, desktops, scanners, printers and peripherals<\/li>\n<li>Communication equipment and configuration setup including broadband internet and Local Area Network (LAN)<\/li>\n<li>Software licenses of servers and desktop\u2019s operation systems, GIS, CAD, imaging etc.<\/li>\n<li>Rehabilitation of existing land information records and files<\/li>\n<li>Data acquisition and conversion of titles, cadastre maps etc.<\/li>\n<li>Digitization of archives<\/li>\n<li>GIS implementation of all relevant layers<\/li>\n<li>Deployment in over 15 remote sites<\/li>\n<li>Training and support of relevant personnel<\/li>\n<li>Maintenance routine and ongoing support<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1090 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_buidling.jpg\" alt=\"fellis_buidling\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_buidling.jpg 500w, https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_buidling-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<h5 align=\"center\">FELIS main office building<\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Results<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1092\" src=\"https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_screenshot-1024x593.png\" alt=\"fellis_screenshot\" width=\"600\" height=\"347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_screenshot-1024x593.png 1024w, https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_screenshot-600x347.png 600w, https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_screenshot-300x174.png 300w, https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_screenshot-768x444.png 768w, https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_screenshot.png 1277w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"su-lightbox\" data-mfp-src=\"https:\/\/sivandesign.com\/new2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/fellis_screenshot-1024x593.png\" data-mfp-type=\"image\" data-mobile=\"yes\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong>Click to Enlarge &gt;<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Today land officers from various remote sites use and update the system with both alphanumeric and spatial data on a daily basis.
