MCD holds training to teach Delhi residents to geotag their homes. Here’s how you can do it.

Over the weekend, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) took a proactive step in educating Delhi residents on the art of geotagging their homes. Conducting training camps across a whopping 200 locations in the national capital, the MCD aimed to empower citizens with the knowledge and skills needed to seamlessly geotag their properties. The significance and perks of this geotagging initiative were thoroughly discussed with enthusiastic participants.

In a recent statement, the MCD highlighted the comprehensive training process, emphasizing the journey from downloading the user-friendly mobile app to successfully geotagging one’s property with accompanying photos. The civic body encouraged citizens to actively engage in this geotagging endeavor for their properties.

It was communicated to attendees that property owners who haven’t registered on the MCD property tax portal must promptly do so. The process involves property registration, UPIC generation, and subsequently, geotagging their properties. The MCD has set a deadline of January 31, 2024, for property owners to complete this registration process. Failure to comply may result in legal actions by the Municipal Corporation of Delhi, including tax recovery and filing cases against defaulters.

To facilitate this geotagging initiative, the MCD introduced the MCD App, designed for both residential and non-residential properties. Property owners were instructed to download the app from the Google Play Store or the MCD website.

Geotagging was underscored as a game-changer, providing precise location identification for individual properties. This, in turn, enhances the Municipal Corporation of Delhi’s ability to deliver improved services to citizens based on their geographical locations.

For those eager to geotag their homes, the process was broken down into simple steps:

Open the MCD App and select the citizen option.
Log in to proceed further.
Select the UPIC for the geotagging option using a registered mobile number.
Choose the Property UPIC, go to the Action button, and click ‘Geo-tagging.’ A map location will pop up.
Click on the ‘Capture Geo Coordinates’ button to add photographs of your property.
Click on ‘Add Photos For Property,’ then add a caption for the photos. Proceed to Submit Geotags & Photo and click on the ‘Yes’ button to submit the details.

Property owners without a UPIC number were instructed to first generate one before embarking on the geotagging process.

Stay ahead of the curve and discover the ease and advantages of geotagging your property with the MCD App – because your home deserves to be on the map!
