Nanjing Land & Resource Administration
Bureau
The new Nanjing, China, land resources manage-ment information system is being developed to
automate operational workflows, integrate all
spatial and textual data, modernize the technology used for the management of land resources,
and facilitate the sharing of data, including publishing data electronically over the Web. The construction of the project involves cadastral manage-ment, land use, land planning, farmland protection,
mineral management, and other land manage-ment functions.
The bureau seamlessly integrated ProjectWise in
combination with XFM information integration
technology, basic data, specific data, and work-
flow. Therefore, the integration and sharing of
data within the bureau, the location and access of
information, and the management and update of
the system is easier than ever.
For example, the speed of issuing certificates of
land property rights is five times quicker; for resi-
dential property, the registration and issuing of
certificates has decreased from one month to 30
minutes, and the maintenance staff has been
decreased from 10 to five. ;

data speedily and efficiently, and the bureau
found Bentley products especially suitable for
data collection and data mining. It uses topology
functions for the geographical data and can con-
nect the large-scale relational database by
ODBC in order to query, analyze, and process
topological information for the geographical
data. To improve the efficiency of data collection
and database construction, the bureau used MDL
to develop the Field Data Collection and
Mapping System (SURVEY), Data Edit System
(MSEDIT), and other applications. ;
Qingdao Planning
and Construction Bureau
Qingdao Planning and Construction Bureau used
MicroStation, GeoGraphics, and Descartes to create its fundamental GIS as the platform for normalized data standards, geographical information collection, dynamic updating, database
establishment, distribution service, and so on. It
constitutes the bureau’s fundamental service platform for spatial information, providing high-quality spatial position for the government, enterprises,
communities, and public. Since 2000, the bureau
has used MicroStation to complete topographical
maps of Qingdao, China, at scales of 1:10000,
1:2000, and 1:500.
The key requirement for Qingdao’s GIS
construction is to collect geographical information
