The creation of the National Spatial Data System provides for the integration of information on land and real estate on one digital platform and is aimed at improving the efficiency of land use and ensuring the guarantee of property rights throughout the country. The platform will allow to work out the prospects for the development of various territories. For example, with its help, applicants will be able to directly apply for the service in order to start work on the site, go through the approval process in the shortest possible time; it will also be possible to identify unregistered real estate objects, using artificial intelligence to change the status of the state of land. 20 Russian regions were selected to participate in this pilot project, 8 of which are located in the Volga Federal District: the Republics of Bashkortostan and Tatarstan, the Chuvash Republic, the Perm Territory, the Nizhny Novgorod, Orenburg, Samara and Saratov regions.

The inclusion of 8 regions of the Volga Federal District in the pilot project is an indicator of quality work: the district is the leader in terms of digital maturity, in terms of the pace of project implementation. But the pace must be increased in order to reach the state program indicators by the end of 2024.”
