Experimental Resurvey

Andhra Pradesh is the only State in the country which has opened up Cadastral Surveys and building up accurate, fully computerised Land Information System.this will help to arrive at a viable, speedy, economical and accurate procedure for rebuilding uptodate Cadastral records on a larger scale, in ready to maintain Digital Format. Government in their G.O.Ms.No 626 Rev. (SS) Dept. Dt. 24.8.98 have accorded administrative approval for a total cost of Rs. 68.70 lakhs for conducting Experimental Resurvey in 3 Districts.ie. Karimnagar,Guntur & Chittor.Subsequently the cost of the Project was worked out to be Rs. 1,02,55,000. This includes cost of Resurvey, Computerisation and providing outputs by the Private Agencies and procurement of Hardware & Software for the 3 selected Mandals. This is a State Scheme. The work has been entrusted to 3 Private agencies on per- acre rate contract basis and the work Began in Nov.2001.

Sl.No Name of Agency Name of District / Mandal No.of Villages Total Area
1. M/s Alpha Geo Karimnagar Dist./ Manakondur 14 36,692
2. M/S Speck systems Guntur Dist /Tadepally, Mangalgiri, Thulur 17 36,744
3. M/S Siemens Chittoor Dist /V.Kota 25 37,045.

The salient features of this approach are:
  • Recording of measurement data for each land holding through ground measurement techniques strictly with reference to enjoyment on ground, by entrusting the work to the field staff of this department .
  • Building up of the land register through local enquiry.
  • Generation of field maps and village maps from field data downloaded into computers from total stations theodolite .
  • Integration of the graphic record in an appropriate manner with the title record.
  • The advantage of having the data for the entire village in digital format is that its updation and monitoring are quite efficient and easy. The incorporation of all changes in title and boundary is rendered less cumbersome and prompter. To this extent the record generated through the proposed resurveys can be brought into maintenance faster and guarded against obsolescence for relatively longer periods of time.
Thus after the end of this project,
  • there will be digital land records available pertaining to villages taken up in this project.
  • The records are easily accessible and copies can be given when requisitioned by farmers .
  • These records can be easily updated as and when new sub-divisions are created .
  • The data can be used by various departments for planning new projects as the vertical control (spot levels ) available without extra effort.
  • GIS can be developed for these villages integrating survey numbers data , Electric lines data ,Roads data ,Telephone lines ,crops data, Water channels data , trees ,drainage system ,Schools , bore wells M P H S data and and HDS data.

Computerisation of Basic Records

The Government in their G.O Ms No. 718 Rev. (SS) Dept. Dt. 06.10.1999 have accorded administrative sanction for computerisation of basic Records i.e. Field Measurement Books and Village Maps in all villages in Kuppam Asembly Constituency.The cost of this Project is Rs.55 Lakhs with cent percent Central Aid. The work has been entrusted to M/s Vision Labs. The work is in progress and has been taken up in the following Villages:

Future action plan for continuation of the programme of Digitization/ Computerizationof Cadastral Survey Maps.

A Project report on Digitization/Computerization of basic survey records ie. FMBs and Village Maps with a cost of Rs14.75 cores in 278 Mandals covering one Mandal from each Assembly Constituency of 22 districts (Excluding Hyderabad(urban) district as records were already Digitization/Computerization) was prepared and submitted to Government of Andhra Pradesh for onwards submission to Government of India for seeking 100% central aid. The details are as under.

Dynamic Command Area Crop-Monitoring System (D-CACS)

Government of Andhra Pradesh issued orders Vide G.O.Ms.No.238 Rev.(P&C) Dept dt.30.3.2001, sanctioning a Pilot Project on Dynamic Command Area Crop Monitoring System (D-CACS) with a cost of Rs.52.00 lakhs for implementation by Chief Commissioner of Land Administration (CCLA) and Andhra Pradesh State Remote Sensing Application Centre. The objective of D-CACS is to evolve a dynamic, season specific and modern system by employing Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) technologies to monitor the irrigated and cropped extents in the Command Area of different irrigation Projects in Andhra Pradesh with a fair degree of accuracy, to facilitate efficient collections of water rates as well as macro level agricultural produce planning.

The methodology to put the new system into operation involves the following activities:
  • acquisition of current satellite imagery separately for the Rabi and Kharif seasons for the respective command areas, showing the irrigated areas under the chosen " Command Area" with standing crops.
  • Generation of digital database for the constituent Cadastral maps of he revenue villages comprised in the respective command areas.
  • Digital superimposition of the Cadastral data on to the geo-coded satellite imagery and showing the location of the areas under standing crops within the cadastral framework of each revenue village.
  • Supervised classification of the satellite data and digital extraction of survey number wise irrigated and un irrigated cropped areas for each revenue village.
  • Linkage of landholding title data computerised by the National informatics Centres of respective centres.
  • Validation of the Sy. Nos and land holding wise cropped areas through joint azmoish at the village level.
  • Firming up of the land holding wise cropped areas and generation of final statistics for each revenue village to facilitate water yield collections and crop yield computations.

To start with the Nagarjuna Sagar Project (NSP)with an area of 8.95 lakhs Ha and Sri Ram Sagar Project (SRSP) with an area of 4.11 lakh Ha, comprising a total of 10.06 Ha in an estimated 2000 revenue villages have been taken. The coverage is at present limited to Paddy & Sugar Cane crops. The broad division of tasks among the various agencies responsible to implement the project is

Task No. Task Description Agency Responsible
1. Procurement of Satellite imagery from the experimental area from NRSA APSRAC, Hyderabad.
2. Generation of Digital Data base for the Constituent Cadastral Maps of thr maps of the villages comprised in the respective command areas. Central Survey Office, Hyderabad.
3. Digital superimposition of the Cadastral Layer onto the imagery. APSRAC, Hyderabad.
4. Supervised classification of satellite data and digital extraction of survey number wise irrigated and unirrigated cropped areas for each revenue village. APSRAC, Hyderabad.
5. Data dissemination to the Collectors. Monitering Cell in CCLA, Hyderabad.
6. Linkage of land holding title data computerised by NIC with the above at the DIstrict Infotmatics Centres of the respective Districts. Collectors of respective Districts
7. Validation of the above data through joint azmoish at the village level for subsequent collection of water rates. Collectors of respective Districts

Future Plans

Experimental Resurvey in Telengana Region

Project Reports are being prepared for Experimental Resurvey on similar Lines for Villages wherein more than 75% of FMBs/Village Maps are in torn Condition. The Proposals would be sent for the approval of Government.These new projects are proposed to be taken up by the Dept. itself by forming Core groups and giving them training in handling the concerned Software like Autocad, arc Info, Arc view etc; The estimated cost of Resurvey of the villages where 75% Tippans (FMBs) missing in Telangana Area is 1811.19 Lakhs

Continuation of Digitisation/Computerisation of Cadastral Survey Maps

A Project reports on Digitization/Computerization of basic survey records ie. FMBs and Village Maps with a cost of Rs14.75 cores in 278 Mandals covering one Mandal from each Assembly Constituency of 22 districts (Excluding Hyderabad(urban) district as records were already Digitization/Computerization) was prepared and submitted to Government of Andhra Pradesh for onwards submission to Government of India for seeking 100% central aid.

This Project Report costing Rs. 15 crores is proposed for 100 % GOI assistance from Ministry of Rural Development.

Results of Resurvey And Computerisation

  • Electronic Preservation, maintenance and updating of records at Mandal & District level.
  • Fast retrieval, storage of huge data, small storage place and easy accessibility to people.
  • Relatively permanent and online updating.
  • Information on network at Mandal & District & State level to facilitate universal accessibility.
  • Survey & land records updated.
  • No need for periodical resurvey of entire State.
  • Avoid litigation between public and government & between private parties
