S. CONCLUSION 
Temporal analyses require lengthy searches in the traditional 
LTC system. Analyses are visual and information retrieval is 
manual mostly from paper documents. That is, the involved 
are tedious, time consuming, and error prone processes. This 
means rather poor quality of services on behalf of both 
citizens and all other parties that LTC offices should serve. It 
also means a high degree of economical losses for the 
Nation's economy. In this work, a temporal GIS has been 
designed and developed for the LTC data. To determine the 
need for temporal analyses on LTC data, the needs of the 
related state and private sector organizations were 
investigated. Some of these organizations were the general 
directorates and branches of the State Owned Lands, Tax 
offices, LTC offices, the Ministries of Budged, Public Works, 
Culture, and Forest, local governments, banks, and private 
sector were taken into account. One of the areas where the 
need for temporal analyses is rather critical is the cases taken 
lo courts. A great many of these cases require a backward 
analyses and in Turkey a great many of the cases are related 
to land and real estates. Therefore, these cases were also 
investigated. As a result, a number of temporal analyses were 
identified. According to the requirement analyses a database 
design was performed in the Relational model. Attribute data 
was stored in MS Access. GIS software used was MapInfo 
Professional 6.5. A space-time composite temporal model 
was used for our system. The interface for temporal analysis 
was developed in Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0. Temporal 
queries and database modifications are performed from the 
n3 
3 
interface. A temporal Cadastral GIS is especially important 
for the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) and thus 
e-government infrastructure. Because, it is particularly 
important for the LTC offices to offer these analyses as “web 
services” to the use of other public and private organizations. 
And L'TC offices can only do these by the support of a TGIS.
