Uttar Pradesh's Revenue Department is undergoing a technological transformation, deploying 504 GNSS Rover units across the state to modernize land measurement and enhance measurement accuracy. Of the 504 Rovers, 350 have already reached tehsils, initiating field surveys, while 143 are actively contributing to mapping projects in 10 Urban Local Bodies.
Two Rovers are stationed at KTS in Hardoi for consolidation training, and all nine purchased for Lekhpal training institutes have been utilized for personnel training. Commissioner and Secretary Kanchan Verma emphasized that the deployment extends beyond tehsils, aiming to streamline land boundary and measurement processes. The GNSS Rover, a satellite-based survey instrument, offers precision up to 1-5 centimeters, recording digital coordinates of key points along land boundaries.
This data, when integrated with GIS and land record systems, facilitates efficient data management, reduces human error, and shortens survey times, especially in large-scale projects. The technology also minimizes crop damage and benefits farmers by streamlining land parcel surveys and cadastral mapping.
