PROJECT OBJECTIVES (/ABOUT-US/56-PROJECT-

OBJECTIVES.HTML)
In line with the LRA’s mission to preserve the stability and integrity of
land ownership and maintain the trust and confidence of the public in
the Torrens System, LRA’s LTCP shall enable the quick and secure
registration of land titles in the country through the application of
state-of the-art information technology.
Specifically, it aims to:
Maintain on-line information on titles that is current, complete and
accurate;

Maintain the security and integrity of records by safeguarding these

from tampering or destruction and deter substitution or insertion of
questionable data, in paper or digital form;

Ensure the integrity of the land titling registration system by moving

from a largely paper-based to a largely paperless system, thereby
securing tighter control over land titles and eliminating fraudulent
titles;

Protect land titles from loss due to fire, theft, natural disasters and the
normal ravages of time using security-tested document imaging
technology;
 Implement more reliable and predictable land registration procedures
by streamlining and standardizing current processes to attain outputs
within set timeframes;

Provide a system of control to prevent overlapping or duplication of

titles by using modern digital mapping technology to create accurate
updated municipal/cadastral index map sheets;

Provide management with accurate and timely information for policy

making, performance appraisal, operations monitoring and more
responsive public service;

Eliminate fraudulent and inaccurate surveys by using modern digital

mapping technologies to create accurate Municipal Index Sheets and

Support other government programs directly linked to the land titling

system functions;

Provide enhanced operational efficiency by strengthening the

administrative support application systems;

Provide a system of timely detection and identification of fake land

titles which will assist in the identification of persons responsible
therefore; and;

PROJECT STATUS (/ABOUT-US/57-PROJECT-

STATUS.HTML)
LAND TITLING COMPUTERIZATION PROJECT

  The Land Registration Authority (LRA) has for some years, been
applying modern technologies to improve its land records
management system. Recently, a combination of microfilm and
computerized database systems has greatly improved the security,
reliability and accessibility of land title information of those registries
where this technology has been applied. However, the steady
introduction of new land title documents continues to challenge LRA’s
ability to keep up with the microfilm operations, and the
corresponding development of computerized databases. Moreover,
the need for a more secure, accurate, efficient and modern land titling
system cannot be over emphasized, for an effective land titling and
registration system is a major force in the economic stability and
progress of any country.

            The advent of Republic Act 7718 (the “BOT Law”) and its
enhancement to include information technology (IT) projects has
provided LRA with a timely avenue by which it will be able to realize
its mission and vision to improve its ability to secure its land titles and
other documents and to deliver its services more efficiently and
effectively. By focusing on IT as a key strategy, the LRA will strengthen
the implementation of the land titling system in the country not only
as a significant revenue source for the government, but more
importantly, to enhance the integrity of the Torrens System. With the
Land Titling Computerization Project (LTCP), it is envisioned that a
query on the status of a land title can be made anywhere, anytime
from any of the various Registries of Deeds nationwide; that there will
be a shift from largely paper-based to a largely paperless system
thereby securing tighter control over land titles; that it will hasten the
turn around time in the generation and issuance of land title, among
others.

BENEFICIARIES : (http://lra.gov.ph/files/Summit-on-Land-
