Kenya is transitioning to digital land surveying, employing advanced technology to enhance accuracy and efficiency in mapping and boundary identification. This move aims to resolve long-standing land disputes, especially concerning older subdivisions.

• The Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning is spearheading the digital shift.
• Surveyors are now using digitised maps and Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) equipment for more precise parcel identification and subdivision.
• This technological adoption is crucial for addressing inaccuracies in historical land records, particularly when land is transferred, developed, or further subdivided.
