Land is an important resource to human and it has direct or indirect role for their food, shelter and living. Land management system plays a vital role in keeping related records to facilitate the act of timely decision for better wellbeing of any society. In Pakistan, the existing land management system is in manual form resulting a lot of social problems in the form of land disputes and also arising as a serious hurdle in the economic growth of the country. In this study, a new technique is developed for land management system in Pakistan using remote sensing and GIS technologies. The relevant data of land parcels from land register and cadastral map were integrated using high resolution satellite imagery through GIS technology. The methodology showed positive results with more precise, manageable, updatable, and future friendly output as compared to the existing manual techniques. This also proved that satellite imagery can be effectively used an alternative for field surveys to prepare cadastral maps with less time and cost.
