The effective development of agricultural production makes it necessary to introduce highly efficient technologies for collecting and processing land information. Information technologies can be of significant help in solving numerous problems.

The main purpose of GIS in land management is the creation of digital maps and plans of the area. The use of GIS technologies allows for a more complete assessment of land resources. Land management includes a system of state, economic, engineering, and legal measures aimed at the rational use of lands and their protection.

Drone-based assessments have made it much easier to carry out land surveying. The land management digitalization project is a complex systemic task that affects the content of land management and the entire land management system of the country. The digitalization of land management cannot be carried out without creating a single integrated information system.

GIS technologies allow us to work with maps, diagrams, and graphs to identify the main problems and develop solutions. Our GIS platform technology provides a comprehensive set of automation tools for land parcel management based on drone images of agricultural land and rural areas. This will ensure the implementation of a long-term strategy for structuring the land market. The development and implementation of digital technologies will open a strategic area for the automation and optimization of land management design processes and the implementation of rural development projects.

GIS PROCESS FLOW

Synchronization of Drone Images

GIS simplifies the process of synchronizing drone images from a local PC to a centralized server. By automating this data transfer, it eliminates the need for manual intervention, reducing human error and saving valuable time. The seamless synchronization enables real-time access to the latest drone images for further analysis.

Orthomosaic Image Generation

With the synchronized drone images, GIS utilizes advanced algorithms to generate high-resolution orthomosaic images. Orthomosaics are composite images created by stitching together multiple aerial images, providing a detailed and accurate representation of the surveyed area. These images serve as a foundation for further analysis and decision-making in land surveying.

Web GIS Interface for Quality Check and Boundary Creation

Our GIS offers a web GIS interface that allows users to perform quality checks on the orthomosaic images. This feature enables surveyors to verify the accuracy of the images and identify any potential issues or discrepancies. Additionally, the application provides tools for creating precise boundaries on the orthomosaic images, facilitating the delineation of land parcels.

Usage of COG Technology

Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF is a file format for geospatial data that is optimized for cloud storage and processing. COG files are smaller and faster to load than traditional GeoTIFF files, making them ideal for use in web-based GIS applications.

Verification and Owner Association

In the land surveying process, it is crucial to associate ownership details with the created boundaries. GIS simplifies this task by providing an intuitive interface to verify the images and associate the respective owner details with each boundary. This feature ensures that the land survey data is complete and properly documented.

Report Generation

GIS empowers users to generate comprehensive reports based on land survey data. These reports can include vital information such as boundary details, ownership records, land area calculations, and any other relevant data. By automating the report generation process, GIS enhances efficiency and enables stakeholders to make informed decisions based on accurate and up-to-date information.

Dashboard for Process Status

To provide a holistic view of the land surveying process, GIS incorporates various dashboards. These dashboards display the status and progress of different stages, including image synchronization, orthomosaic generation, boundary creation, and report generation. Real-time updates on the dashboard help project managers and stakeholders track the project’s overall progress effectively.

Notification Mechanism

Effective communication is essential for successful project management. GIS includes a comprehensive notification mechanism that keeps all stakeholders informed at each stage of the land surveying process. Notifications are automatically sent to the respective stakeholders, ensuring timely updates and minimizing delays.

Benefits

  • Increased efficiency: GIS can automate the processing of large datasets of drone images, which can save surveyors a significant amount of time and money.
  • Improved accuracy: GIS can use advanced algorithms to process drone images, which can improve the accuracy of the resulting maps and models.
  • Scalability: GIS can be used to process drone images on a variety of platforms, including laptops, desktops, and cloud computing clusters. This makes it a versatile and scalable solution for drone image processing.
  • Ease of use: GIS is a user-friendly platform that can be used by surveyors with varying levels of experience.

Summary

GIS revolutionizes the land surveying process by leveraging the power of drone imagery and automation. By automating tasks such as image synchronization, orthomosaic generation, boundary creation, and report generation, GIS enhances efficiency, accuracy, and productivity in land surveying projects. The application’s web GIS interface, comprehensive dashboards, and notification mechanism further contribute to seamless collaboration among stakeholders. With GIS, land surveyors can expedite the surveying process, improve decision-making, and ultimately contribute to more effective land management and development.
