GDI for Land Management

		MyGDI, as the Malaysian SDI, includes the development of the National Geospatial Data Centre (NGDC) and State Geospatial Data Centre (SGDC) as well as standardization of names and codes of land administrative boundaries, known as Unique Parcel Identifier (UPI). Along the similar focus to establish standardized data to enable consistency in the usage, a project was carried out to match the cadastral data in Sistem Pengurusan Tanah Berkomputer (SPTB) and cadstral data in Pengkalan Data Ukur Kadaster (PDUK).

		This project for the District of Pekan covered 33,738 lots in the SPTB. In PDUK, the project covered 34,848 cadastral lots that had been surveyed as of November 2007.

		In the process of land administration, the Land Office registers a lot in SPTB as temporary title (HSM or HSD) and after the lot has been surveyed in detail by a land surveyor, the lot will be assigned the final title (FT). The final titles are registered in PDUK. Due to some discrepancies, there are lots with temporary titles that have been surveyed and registered to have final titles in PDUK but are not updated in SPTB.

		The works to match the lots in the project identified 3 layers, namely, the lots that have the final titles, the lots that have temporary titles, and other lots that fall in neither categories. Apart from these 3 layers, the works also created 2 additional layers; specifically, the lots with final titles as well as those with temporary titles that could not be matched.

		Since the status of all of the lot ownership in SPTB and the status of cadatral lot in PDUK has been ascertained, further steps to solve the outstanding unmatched lots can be further identified.
