| dc.description.abstract | In this study, a land Search Information System was implemented for the people of Uganda, to enable them
easily, make land title searches and also get informed on issues concerning land. This is because there is a
high rise of land conflicts in the country which has raised due to the fact that people are not well educated
on matters concerning land and also making land title searches today in the current systems is slow and in-
efficient thus it takes a lot of time which creates more room for illegalities like title forgery which results
into a lot of fraud during the process of land purchase which in the end results into land conflicts since par-
ties will end up fighting each other claiming to both be having land titles attached to the same piece of land
In this study we used both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data was collected using interviews,
observation, documentation review and focus group discussion which methods were used for data collec-
tion from 30 respondents and also, we had to get sensitive data from the ministry of lands that was to be
used during system integration.
In objective one, we collected both primary and secondary data, which was analyzed using excel spread-
sheets and the user requirements were determined. In objective two, the system was designed using data
flow diagrams (DFDs) and enhanced entity relationship diagrams (ERDs). In objective three, the system
was developed using technologies such as React Js, NodeJS, Bootstrap, CSS, HTML, JavaScript and
MySQL among others. In objective four, the system was tested and validated. The findings of the study are
of great significance to researchers, Makerere University and Ministry of lands housing and urban develop-
ment. | en_US |
