[OSGeo Africa] How to capture cadastral data using QGIS

[Gavin Fleming]

Hi Johan

The Azimuth and Distance plugin that Uazu mentions does the basics but 
is fairly rudimentary.

We've developed a QGIS plugin that does coordinate as well as bearing 
and distance capture and editing. It maintains the 'beacons' thus 
generated as points in PostGIS. It then allows you to graphically define 
a parcel based on an ordered set of beacons and generates the parcels on 
the fly. The result is a beacon layer and a dynamic 'parcels' layer.

It is working on 1.8 in a client environment (Ogun State, Nigeria) and 
would need funding to update to the QGIS 2.0 API and to make it more 
generic for wider release.

There is also a UN FOSS project for cadastral management, SOLA [1], that 
is being trialled in various locations
