Blockchain based mechanism to eliminate frauds and tampering of land records

Data tampering and fraud in land records have increased drastically in the modern world. A data storage model using Blockchain and Interplanetary File System (IPFS) is proposed in this work. Land records and the farmer’s information are stored inside the Interplanetary file system. To avoid data faking, the hash address of the respective data generated by IPFS is stored in the blockchain. This proposed system when deployed on a large scale can outperform the existing methods of securing user data. One of the latest technological advancements in the software industry is the innovation of Blockchain Technology. This new technology has opened up a new business relationship platform that delivers feasibility, protection, and cheap rates. It provides a new foundation of trust for transactions that can facilitate a very streamlined workflow and a faster economy.
