Tech and Transparency: Democratizing data and empowering communities with cutting-edge technologies<https://landportal.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0a75cf9a3172ad47e391e495c&id=9781abfeea&e=de7e2b9c96>


Opaque government decisions around land and property, paired with opaque land administration systems and decision-making mechanisms, enable corruption and fraud by land officials. This can range from petty corruption in land transactions to major political corruption in land management, such as the illegal sale or lease of state land by public officials.
New and emerging technologies have the potential to greatly increase transparency by simplifying the process of mapping, recording, and defending property rights at scale, by preventing fraud and records tampering, and by resting control over property rights in the hands of the rights holders themselves - provided the technologies are employed based on open systems that subscribe to open data principles
