Satellite Data for Assessment of Land Valuation and Property Taxes

Satellite Data for Assessment of Land Valuation and Property Taxes
"How to use satellite Earth Observation (EO) data for a better Land Valuation System and related Property Tax estimation?" Many developing countries seek to improve methods of land valuation and related property taxation. In this video, methods for using actual land transaction data with the land cadastral maps and basic building height data generated from satellite images are presented to simulate different property values and related tax rates in the city of Kigali, Tanzania. Webinar delivered by EO4SD-URBAN project consortium for European Space Agency (ESA) and World Bank Group (WBG). The material is extracted from training material provided by the EO4SD-URBAN project which is funded by the European Space Agency and implemented by GAF AG and Consortium.
