Open Tenure

Informal land tenure rights recognition for communities

Open Tenure (OT) supports informal land tenure rights collection and recognition at a community level through open data.

Using OT, community members can collect and view information about ownership, land use, adjacency and supporting documentation then claiming for recognition of rights.

The application is designed to be used in conjunction with a web based “community server” (there is a demo server at http://demo.opentenure.org) where tenure details captured with Open Tenure can be reviewed and moderated by other community members.

OT is integrated with the device camera to allow attaching snapshots to the land tenure rights claim and with GPS/Maps for land property mapping.
