The Guam Ancestral Lands Commission (GALC) was awarded $370,602 under a Project Grant from the Department of the Interior's Office of Insular Affairs to upgrade its information technology infrastructure and modernize systems. Funded through the Economic, Social, and Political Development of the Territories program, the GALC will use the award to scan and digitize approximately 614,000 existing land records, develop a web-based data system software with a public user interface, and design an updated website. These deliverables will replace outdated manual processes with an integrated, secure technology solution to efficiently manage the land record database and improve public access. By streamlining workflows and preserving digital archives, the funded upgrades are expected to increase the GALC's organizational capacity and service delivery effectiveness as the independent agency works to protect landowners' interests in Guam.
