Free landuse maps online by CMDA

The Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority (CMDA) has introduced a facility, which allows one to access land use maps of the Second Master Plan (SMP) and the approved Detailed Development Plan (DDP) through the internet. The first-of-its-kind initiative in the country was launched by Minister for Information and Urban Development Parithi Ellamvazhuthi here on Sunday.

According to express buzz report, prints of the maps/plans could be taken free of cost through the website cmdachennai.gov.in, without going to the CMDA’s office at Egmore. A total of 398 maps of the SMP and 56 maps of the DDPs have been converted into the digital format with embedded security features.
