Identity Model for Blockchain-Based Land Registry System: A Comparison

Abstract

The land registry system is one of the essential components of any governance model required to ascertain the ownership records uniquely. This paper reviews the existing literature and provides a detailed literature review consisting of 3 stages based on three research questions (RQ) that highlight the step by step evaluation and analysis. We selected 48 primary articles out of 477 extracted from different scientific databases based on criteria and RQ defined in the research method section. The majority of these papers focus on assessing the identity issues related to the land registry system and reviewing the existing identity models to find the best possible identity model to resolve the identified identity problems in the land registry. This paper examines the current land registry model and its shortcomings. It explains the various blockchain types and their characteristics. It further evaluates the usability of blockchain technology in different aspects of the land registry. Identity management is one of such weaknesses in the blockchain-based land registry model that has been assessed in detail. Identity issues of blockchain-based models have been further evaluated on defined criteria. The paper ends with a discussion on possible identity models and their comparative analysis to ascertain the most suitable identity model to resolve the identity issues of land registry systems.

Energy Efficient Clustering Protocol for FANETS Using Moth Flame Optimization

“…Node positions and transmission range determine how many clusters are needed in a given network configuration. When choosing the size and number of clusters in K-means sorted fitness, we consider the transmission range of CHs [32][33]. The nodes' fitness values are supplied into K-means sorted fitness, which returns CHs and the members connected with them as output, and the flow of this process can be seen in Figure 8.…”

“…Lower-resolution summaries are transmitted to the sink, whereas high-resolution outlines remain in the network and can be accessed for further analysis [32]. As a result, MRCQ has lower implementation costs and may be used with low-cost sensor systems [33,34].…”

Assessment of Web3 Technology in Land Ownership Transactions

“…The law that governs land Ownership in Nigeria is the Land Use Act of 1978, now Land Use Act (2004). Limitations to the adoption of the blockchain technology in Land Administration and Cadastre System of developing and underdeveloped countries are subjected to the inability to synchronize the technology with the existing customary and statutory laws governing the Cadastre System of these countries (Racetin et al, 2022;Bakar et al, 2022;Shuaib et al, 2022). It is important to understand that for a successful adoption of this new technology in the cadastre system of a country, it is necessary that the technology is built in line with the laws, rules and regulations of such country (Racetin et al, 2022).…”

“…For instance, in Nigeria, the consent of the Governor on matters relating to land ownership or transfer of ownership by lease, assignment is necessary, else such transaction would be null and void (Section 26, Land Use Act, 2004). The problems facing Land Administration and Cadastre system of developing Nations include lack of efficiency, transparency, security and organized database; high cost of transaction and high time complexity (Shuaib et al, 2022). To assess the possibility of the blockchain technology to address these issues, the research questions is, how can a cryptographic blockchain for Land Administration and Cadastre system be developed and maintained for a developing and underdeveloped countries?…”
