Property tax is one of the major revenue generation methods for the municipal councils in order to provide services to the people. The present system includes taxable and non taxable parameters that have to be studied and maintained in order to get an assessment of the revenue generated in a particular municipality. The collection procedures adopted today are manual and hence are very elaborative and time consuming. Similarly the various assessment statements generated are difficult to handle. Furthermore the spatial viewing of the area is not assured.
GIS integrates the information with the spatial outlook of an area under study. This information is gathered and manipulated as per the user’s choice that fulfils his application. Huge volumes of data are spatially linked and give the user a rather neat and simple representation of the problem, facilitating planning and deployment.
Jejuri, a small municipal council is taken for study and analysis since it was becoming very difficult to assess the incoming revenue for the improvement of the area. Huge records were to be handled and related together at the end of the year, which was a very tedious and erroneous task.
This work aims at providing a comprehensive user interface to the municipal officials in order to maintain, update and access records. This would facilitate the removal of obsolescence and redundancy in the system and provide a spatial analytic view to the whole system, ensuring non erroneous and faster calculation.
