Barbados Creates a Digital Parcel Fabric to Modernize Their Land Administration
The Government of Barbados was seeking to modernize their Land Administration processes starting with the creation of a national cadastre, containing approx. 126,000 parcels. The project was the National Digital Parcel Fabric (NDPF) and the goal was to create a single, complete, trusted, and sustainable digital cadastre for Barbados using ArcGIS Pro. This presentation will share the journey of creating a nationwide digital cadastre in Barbados, featuring project insights, benefits, hurdles, and the Barbados user perspective within the Land Administration Modernization Program (LAMP).
“Collaborating with MNC has been an excellent process for Barbados Lands & Titles. MNC’s project management and clear communication approach made it easy for us to evaluate options and make informed decisions. They were quick to problem solve and let us know the options and the impact of each.”
