Based on GeoERP technology, LAPS (Land and Property System) is Sivan Design's unique solution for Land Information System (L.I.S)/Geographic Information System (G.I.S). With a powerful set of tools, the system enables the user to store data, and analyze and print any desired information easily. LAPS stores all Land and Land-related data, including Ownerships, Title documents (CofO) and subsequent transactions (Deeds of Sub-lease, Deeds of Assignment…). The system also handles all financial aspects such as demand notice, receipt, valuation module etc. The GIS engine of the LAPS system stores all Cadastral layers (plots, blocks, layouts), their Geo-spatial information and the linkage to all title documents' information.
Sivan Design specializes in analyzing the customer's needs, adjusting the LAPS system to suit these needs, and complete integration of the software in the customer's daily activity. Once implemented, the system can be used by government and local authorities to increase revenues by improving planning and collection of land and property taxes.
LAPS is used by government as well as federal and state authorities for the recording, registration and taxation of land properties. The system covers the whole land area of a country, allowing a government to efficiently plan and collect taxes from all land and property owners. This increased efficiency invariably leads to increased tax revenues as a result of more efficient tax collection. LAPS achieves these goals by using advanced and sophisticated software tools, computer technology and networking.
Flexible and Robust Software "Engine"
The system is based on a software engine that was developed to accommodate the needs of every customer. Each project is based on this software engine and can be customized to the inpidual requirements of each government or costumer. The LAPS system offers sophisticated query and display capabilities. Maps of relevant areas are shown, with features of interest highlighted. The graphic and alphanumeric displays function in an integrated manner. This means that information selected in the alphanumeric window is automatically updated in the graphical window.
Using the LAPS graphically represented map display, all "gaps" in the land registration can be detected. These "gaps" are simply seen on the screen, and corrective action can be initiated.
