DTCP does the plan approval adhering to Developemnt Regulations (DR). The
scrutiny has two parts namely 1. Document Scrutiny 2. Plan Scrutiny. Apart from that
validation of documents, verification of the site, land use classification, building
plan parameters, Parking, Reservations and various No Objection Certificates are to
be produced wherever necessary are being done.
All the feasible parameters in the drawing are verified against specifications
in DR like land use, Building Activity and various types of Building parameters such
as Special Building, Multi-storied Building, Industries & Institutional Buildings etc.
The following are the core activities of the DTCP, however current scope is to
facilitate Building plan Application Scrutiny only.
1. Land Planning
2. Technical approval for Layout plan
3. Building plan Application Scrutiny
4. Change of land use approval
DTCP-Vinzas-eDCR-User Manual Version_1.4 1 of 98

DTCP facilitates the building plan application scrutiny through full fledged
software named which is developed by its Consultant, Vinza Solutions Chennai.
The Online Building Plan Scrutiny Module in helps the Architect/Licensed

Builders to submit the Drawing in .dwg Format and get the Scrutiny Result and also the
Applicant can view the status of the drawing online. The LPA Officer sends the result
through e-mail.
The Scrutiny Module in "eDCR" helps the LPA Officers to complete the scrutiny
process as per DR Norms of DTCP.
The eDCR technically scrutinize all the categories viz. Special Buildings, Multi-
Storied Buildings and Group Developments.
2. PROMINENT PROCESS OF THE SOFTWARE

2.1 Online Building Plan Application Scrutiny Process:
Automation of Online Building Plan Application Scrutiny (OBPAS) is the
main part of the which is used by Architect/Licensed Builders and the
LPA officers.
System is designed for Architect/Licensed Builders to register and

submit the drawing and get the Reference Number of the Application.
The drawing will get processed, i.e. Scrutiny online and the reports will
be generated by the Software, without any Human intervention.
The Authorized LPA officer will download the Reports.
The software will facilitate communication between Architect/Licensed
Builders and LPA Officer via E-Mail, Public can also view the status of
their File Online.
The system also contains a relational database having list of
Architect/Licensed Building Surveyors, LPA officers details.
The applicant can also get the scrutiny report through online (OBPAS)
using their Reference Number.
2.2 eDCR Scrutiny Process:
In this process the Applicant submits the drawing. There are
two stages of drawing scrutiny. In the first stage, basic checker software
runs, which checks, if the drawing meets the basic standards like
correctness of polylines, text and lines, Scrutiny software processes the
drawing and generates Scrutiny report.
If the drawing is not as per the standards defined in this User

Manual, the drawing will be marked as returned with the errors written
as text in the drawing itself. The drawing can be downloaded and the
errors can be corrected by the Applicant and then re-uploaded.

3. OBJECTIVES
To bring transformation in the plan scrutiny processing system with speed, accuracy,
consistency and transparency in the entire scrutiny process. To achieve the goal, it is
proposed to automate the planning scrutiny process by customization with the help
of technically competitive software.
4. SCOPE OF THE SYSTEM
The Automation helps to increase the Productivity and Accuracy of the Drawing
Result.
Speed up the Scrutiny process.
Easier Public Interaction with Online System.
Reduce the Time consumption and Manual Errors of Scrutiny Process.
Savings on the infrastructure required to store paper drawings.
Easy to retrieve data since the data is stored in digital format.
5. DRAWING FILES SPECIFICATIONS

11 Precheck Software
Precheck is the software given for finding out all the polyline, line, and
text related problems in the drawing. When the Applicant submits the
building map proposal, this software enables the applicant to rectify the
defects in the drawing and make it suitable to run in the Scrutiny
software. It reads the drawing elements and lists all the discrepancies in
the drawing. It will process the file and gives the output with various
parameters as listed below. If errors are found in the drawing, the
drawing will be populated with hyperlinks to the errors and will be
returned to the Applicant via dashboard.
1. Setback Boundary
2. Multiple Polyline Geometry Problems
3. Invalid object colour
4. Misplaced OTS
5. Existence of Blocks, Regions, Wipeouts & External references in Floor layers
6. Mandatory requirements and
7. Other critical errors
The disqualified items will be marked and a reference will be placed as text in
the Return drawing. Details will be displayed such as disqualified object name;
floor name and drawing coordinate position. It will also draw a crossed grey line
on all the disqualified objects throughout the drawing. The disqualified object
can be viewed on holding the Ctrl key and selecting the coordinate position
of the hyper-linked text (error text) in the drawing.

12. How to submit the Drawing:
12.1 Registration Process:
The Architect/Licensed Builders has to create a user account online for
submitting Application & Drawing. The Architect/Licensed Building Surveyors
need to provide a valid email address, username and password for Registration.

12.2 Login Process:
Once the Registration process gets completed, Architect/Licensed Builders will
receive mail from the Development Authority office. Architect/Licensed Building
Surveyors has to login using username and password which is provided in the

12.3 Plan Submission Process:
New Plan Submission: To submit a new proposal without exciting, click the
New Proposal option from the Plan menu.
To submit the drawing file, enter all the Mandatory fields and then upload the Drawing
file in .dwg format.

New Plan Submission with existing building: To submit a new proposal with
exciting, click the With Existing option from the Plan menu.

12.4 Reference Number Details:
Architect/Licensed Builders will get an Unique ID for the submission of
Application. This will be used for finding the status of this Application in future.
