Valuing property and buildings in Kigali and secondary cities
This project aims to value property and buildings in Kigali and five of Rwanda’s secondary cities. Generated property values will be delivered to Rwanda’s Ministry of Finance and the Rwanda Revenue Authority (RRA) so these values can be incorporated into the IT systems of RRA and used for property tax administration purposes. Inspired by a previous IGC-funded project...

Project
Remote sensing for measuring housing supply in Kigali
In Kigali, data on the building stock of the city is poor. This inhibits efforts towards land valuation, and the increased tax revenues that can arise from that. This project tested the potential of remote sensing, specifically satellite imagery, as a cost-effective way to monitor the city’s building stock, and how it has changed over time. Researchers created a...
