Citizen Card System

ABSTRACT

Project Title: Citizen Card System

Category: Application Development, Enterprise.

Objective:

The Project ‘Citizen Card System’ gives us the information about the citizen in any
country. A Citizen has unique Id to find out the personal information in each and every
department or service wherever a citizen goes. This information can be found out by the
unique Id of the citizen. If any citizen wants to utilize the services or utilities by the
Government or Private organizations, he has to go to each and every department with different
Id for that particular department. Instead, a citizen card helps in having all the utilities and
services under one unique Id. This system not only helps us to know the information about the
services or utilities but also it gives the information about the character of the citizen in credit
rating.

‘Citizen Card System’ provides the information about the citizen in any country. A
Citizen has unique Id to find out the personal information in each and every department or

PROBLEMS IN THE EXISTING SYSTEM

• The existing system is a manual system. Here the Citizens information needs to save
his information in the form of excel sheets or Disk Drives.

• There is no sharing is possible if the data is in the form of paper or Disk drives.

• The manual system gives us very less security for saving data; some data may be lost
due to mismanagement.

• Searching of particular information is very critical it takes lot of time.

• The users cannot able to restrict the file sharing options.

• The users only know his information only not others.

• It is very critical to share public information to all users.

SOLUTION OF THESE PROBLEMS

The development of this new system contains the following activities, which try to
automate the entire process keeping in the view of database integration approach.
• User Friendliness is provided in the application with various controls provided by
system Rich User Interface.

• The system makes the overall project management much easier and flexible.

• It can be accessed over the Intranet.

• Various classes have been used for file uploading and down loading.

 Citizen Card System

• The user information files can be stored in centralized database which can be
maintained by the system.

• This can give the good security for user information because data is not in client
machine.

• Authentication is provided for this application only registered users can access.

• User can share is data to others, and also he can get data from others.

• There is no risk of data management at any level while the project development is
under process.
