Plan • Challenges and objectives • The main actors • Project progresses • Focus 1 – data bases • Focus 2 – documentation preparation and treatment • Focus 3 – Public information and capacity building • Conclusion 2
Challenges In Uganda, more than 60% of the registered documents is in very bad state. • The land information istreatedmanually • The information whenitexists, is in paperform • The conditions of storage are verypoor Consequences: • The risks of damage, loss, destruction of existing land documentation isvery high • The land records are not reliable • In case of land disputes, the relevant information isdifficult to obtain, generatingvery long procedures and overwhelmed administrative staff « In Uganda, 35% of complaints are about acts of fraud and counterfeiting ; 33% of complaints relate to delays in transactions, the unavailability of documents” (World Bank) 4

The need for the completion of a geographic data set Considering a trustable land administration is a transparent land administration for all, the land administration must be based on georeferenceddata. • A reliable geodetic network was completed • Production of Up to date orthophotographies and DTM* on the project area (17 362 m²) – completed in sept 2011 • Georeferencing the existing thematic, such as cadastral maps (16 500 maps) – on going and will be finished by the end of 2012 *DTM: Digital Terrain Model 13
MAPS REHABILITATION AND SCANNING Rehabilitation and scanning of : • 11,500 cadastral maps • 5,000 historical, topographical and cadastral index maps 16
Maps digitization • Georeferencing of 16,500 maps • Vectorisation of 11,500 cadastral maps 18
Component 4 – Implementing the LIS CAPACITY BUILIDNG • Organization of study tours in Europe and in Africa • Preparation of the training plan (general training and dedicated trainings)/ implementation PUBLIC AWARENESS • Preparation of the communication plan/ implementation (general public and stakeholders and beneficiaries) • Organization of workshops on a regular basis to keep people informed of the project progresses SHARING OF THE EXPERIENCES • Organization of a regional seminar on the LIS added value and key factors of successes ) 20
