Land Records

The land is a very valuable asset for any government. It’s government job to ensure that the land registration and transfer are done without any fraud, good speed and transparency. The current land registration method employed by the governments are not open to frauds, hacks, and corruption of land records. Fraud is one of the major problems in land registration methods. In this study, the goal is to develop the framework by incorporating the blockchain technique that secures the land data during the land registration and transfer phases by preventing the fraud. The use of blockchain gives us the transparent, decentralized and robust infrastructure to build our framework upon. The blockchain technology is implemented with the asymmetric keys encryption/decryption that securely stores the land registration/transfer data. The data is held using encrypting with the public key of the landowner and storing a hash of the data. The use of the cryptographic function of hashing using SHA. The comparison of using SHA 256 and SHA 512 is given and discussed. The dataset used to compare results is created using 200 records of JSON objects with each object being identical for both SHA256 and SHA512 to remove data bias. The proposed framework with the SHA 512 performed 29% faster than the SHA 256. The results indicate our proposed framework performing better than the works proposed in current research land registration techniques.

The administration of lands in Ghana has been a major issue in the past years that has resulted in parties seeking arbitration to determine the rightful owners and others resulting in death because of the land-guard menace. The main issues in land administration in Ghana include modification and falsification of land records, difficulty in authenticating the ownership of land property, sales of land property to more than one customer, and lack of transparency in land transactions. This chapter examines the application of Blockchain in land administration in Ghana to solve the issues of unauthorized modification of land records, difficulties in proven ownership of land properties, and the lack of transparency in land transactions. The proposed solution is based on Ethereum Blockchain technology using a smart contract. The solution used a non-fungible token to represent land properties as a digital asset that can be traded on the proposed solution. The proposed solution provides integrity, immutability, provenance, and transparency in land administration.

Data tampering and fraud in land records have increased drastically in the modern world. A data storage model using Blockchain and Interplanetary File System (IPFS) is proposed in this work. Land records and the farmer’s information are stored inside the Interplanetary file system. To avoid data faking, the hash address of the respective data generated by IPFS is stored in the blockchain. This proposed system when deployed on a large scale can outperform the existing methods of securing user data. One of the latest technological advancements in the software industry is the innovation of Blockchain Technology. This new technology has opened up a new business relationship platform that delivers feasibility, protection, and cheap rates. It provides a new foundation of trust for transactions that can facilitate a very streamlined workflow and a faster economy.

Land Records

Proving ownership of the land should preferably be done with a legal document that proves it decisively. Many authorities retain various documents, any of which could be used to assert a claim on the land. To prevent document falsification, the land administration mechanism ought to be robust, accessible at all times, and quick to accomplish exercises. But, any such solutions are prone to a slew of issues, including data accuracy, security, and dispute resolution. Usage of blockchain technology in land administration is considerably advanced to solve issues that plague current LAS. With the adoption of blockchain, the problem of cooperation among a variety of land records is articulated. The proposed model has integrated units to digitally sign the land assets to store securely into the blockchain using cryptography algorithms after which land assets are verified. The proposed approach eliminates deception, improves administration. The results show that the time complexity for registering, signing, and verifying land facts to establish a system using blockchain is relatively secure.

Land Records

Digitization of land records is not sufficient for preventing fraud cases, time delay, and brokers' involvement. Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) is used for making this digitized record more secure and process it in a decentralized way, and reduces paperwork in selling and buying of land. Blockchain technology has come to the fore in recent years and is the center of technical discussion, with intuitive applications driven by its network architecture. It has been firmly established as one of the most important emerging technologies. This article aims to implement a land registry mechanism using blockchain technology and optimize searching of land records in blockchain. Interplanetary File System (IPFS) provides an infrastructure that offers a precise portrayal of all the members' roles. The application interacts with the blockchain network, which is built using IPFS. This paper will help in providing a secure and decentralized system for the land registry process. The proposed consensus algorithm MRRCM achieves less time required to generated a block on an average by 3.06% round-robin and 96.48% PoW approach. The proposed modified hash table search approach requires less time to search the blockchain's land record block than the extensive liner searches and hash table search approach. A search for a land record in the blockchain reduces the search time on an average by 59.5% compared to the traditional extensive liner search approach and by 18.68% as compared with the hash table search approach.
