Hi Marc, Thanks for your reply. No I havnt contacted with cadasta but i will do that soon. Interesting to see the link you shared and thakks for your understanding the project that I told in my mail. You are right, its not important whether the project is humanitarian or not, the matter is how to look at it. The land is government owned free land what were distributed to the poor landless people but now illegally captured and encroached by some people. that is why the organization wants to keep the data in open platform where the community can share the status of the parcels. I also agree with you that this is a data preparedness too for any type of emergencies since the areas are lying in food vulnerable zone of Jamalpur district.
