Land administration
Land Information Systems
Modernize national land registries
Land information systems that keep ownership, transactions, approvals, and registry data current across the agencies responsible for land administration.
Request a demoA registry earns trust by staying current
A land register is not a static archive. Ownership, legal interests, parcel relationships, restrictions, and rights change through transactions that must be reviewed and recorded over time. When those changes move through paper files or disconnected agency systems, the register becomes harder to maintain and slower to use.
MLG builds land information systems around the daily work that keeps the official record current. Applications, evidence, reviews, authorizations, and registry updates remain connected to the affected parcel and parties, giving land authorities a dependable operational view instead of another isolated database.
Every transaction carries its full context
Registry staff need more than a case number. They need the parcel, current rights, participating parties, submitted evidence, transaction type, review history, and outstanding decisions in one working record. Bringing that context together reduces duplicate handling and makes it clear what has happened, what is pending, and who is responsible for the next decision.
Once a transaction is authorized, the approved change updates the register without losing its history. The result is continuity between the application received today and the ownership and transaction record that public institutions will rely on tomorrow.
Institutions connect without losing authority
Land administration crosses institutional boundaries. Identity agencies verify people. Cadastral teams maintain parcel geometry. Payment services confirm fees. Valuation authorities, planning agencies, and other government systems hold information the registry may need without surrendering responsibility for it.
MLG connects those sources through defined exchanges so staff can use approved information without recreating it in every office. Each institution remains authoritative for its own data and decisions, while the land transaction moves through a coherent public service.
Controls reflect the law and operating model
Roles, permissions, signatures, evidence requirements, and approval stages are configured around the jurisdiction’s legal framework. Transaction officers see the work assigned to them; authorized reviewers record their decisions; and the system preserves when and by whom each approval was made.
Paperless transfers deliver measurable gains in Rwanda
In Rwanda, MLG designed and implemented a paperless land-transfer pilot for voluntary sales through Ubutaka. The pilot connected application data from the government’s Irembo service with identity verification, land-registry information, notary authorization, and registrar approval. Public-key infrastructure secured the official signatures, while selected transaction proof was recorded on blockchain for independent verification.
The connected process reduced transaction time from two to eight weeks to two to four days. Citizens spent less time navigating paper handoffs, departments gained faster access to the same transaction information, and the government reduced administrative cost. Blockchain supported the integrity of key authorizations; the maintained registry and lawful approval process remained the foundation of the service.

Delivery approach
How MLG delivers the outcome
- TransactionsDigital land transactions
- Applications, reviews, approvals, and supporting records can move through a shared digital workflow instead of separate paper files.
- RegistryCurrent registry data
- Ownership, parties, parcels, and transaction history are maintained as conditions and legal interests change.
- ControlRoles and authorizations
- Permissions, signatures, and approval steps can be configured around the institutions and legal authority of the jurisdiction.
- IntegrationConnected land systems
- The registry can exchange data with cadastral, valuation, titling, identity, payment, and other government systems without duplicating their responsibilities.
- DeliveryMigration and operating readiness
- Implementation includes understanding existing records, mapping transactions, preparing data and integrations, training users, and planning service continuity.
