All over the globe, properties occupied by people who don't possess their ownership or do not have legal rights on them are as common as anything today. Millions of people reside in lands that do not belong to them. There are also cases where the resident does not own the land but has the permission from the state or the land owner to use the land for a definite period of time. But even in such cases, the right to use the property may not be guaranteed for long durations. Such conditions result in the residents losing interest in investing on the property or improving the quality of the property by any means. In rural areas, this lack of interest is evident in the form of unwillingness to install irrigation systems. Urban areas, in turn display it in the form of the hesitation to invest in other types of land improvement activities.

The key reason for the prevalence of such a scenario is the absence of a reliable mechanism that can define ownerships of lands accurately. Only such a mechanism can avoid the situation where lands have their boundaries poorly defined, or not defined at all. Disputes are seen to be hovering most commonly around lands that belong to families or clans. Such lands are transferred based on personal decisions without proper documentation, thus resulting in ownership disputes later. Another point of frequent dispute is about the usufructuary rights on a property. Such rights, which allow a person who does not own the land to draw benefits from that land, are not secure or transferrable. These lands become disputed once the usufructuary rights starts disappearing on the death of the grantee.

The old paper maps and records, which are most prone to damage, can be easily converted into reliable digital formats. Modern cadastral systems that facilitate this transformation are both sustainable and cost effective. Storing in digital format has many benefits like being protected against fire or destruction and being more easily accessible to search engines or databases. These digitized records prove to be more effective in resolving ownership disputes and in tracking usage agreements on parcels. A database, which if formed with the help of a geographical information system, is a common and very efficient platform for managing cadastral information. This could be either a central database or a regional database. The GIS can be customized in a suitable manner to handle cadastral information. Such customized layers within the GIS provide accurate, records of the description, ownership and usage rights of properties. With the clarity and reliability thus acquired, a parcel's chain of titles can be easily traced and its capital value can easily be derived. With such databases of land information, cadastral data can be linked to other information systems as well. Graphical illustrations of a property can be linked to spatial information on topography, environmental conditions, land use and natural resources. Having successfully completed high volume mapping projects like the mapping of around four hundred towns of Spain, SBL Geomatics has proven credibility in handling large scale parcel mapping assignments efficiently. The parcel mapping project covering the Roane county of USA is another example of golden feathers in SBL Geomatics's parcel mapping legacy.
