Modelling & Designing Land Record Information System Using Unified Modelling Language

Automation of Land Records is one of the most important initiatives undertaken by the revenue department to facilitate the landowners of the state of Punjab. A number of such initiatives have been taken in different States of the country. Recently, there has been a growing tendency to adopt UML (Unified Modeling Language) for different modeling needs and domains, and is widely used for designing and modelling Information systems. UML diagramming practices have been applied for designing and modeling the land record information system so as to improve technical accuracy and understanding in requirements related with this information system. We have applied a subset of UML diagrams for modeling the land record information system. The case study of Punjab state has been taken up for modelling the current scenario of land record information system in the state. Unified Modeling Language (UML) has been used as the specification technique. This paper proposes a refined software development process combined with modeled process of UML and presents the comparison study of the various tools used with UML.
