Brief description of subject: Cadastral systems are
up-to-date land information systems containing records of interests in
land (e.g. rights, restrictions and responsibilities). They usually include
a geometric description of land parcels linked to other records describing
the nature of the interests, the ownership or control of those interests,
and often the value of the parcel and its improvements. A cadastral system
may have been established for fiscal purposes (e.g. valuation and equitable
taxation), legal purposes (conveyancing), to assist in the management
of land and land use (e.g. for planning and other administrative purposes),
and enables sustainable development and environmental protection (based
on "Statement on the Cadastre", FIG, 1995). |
Goal of course: The students should get an understanding
of the nature, role and importance of cadastral systems and their related
concepts of land administration systems and spatial data infrastructures
(SDIs). To this end a range of local and international approaches both
in developed and developing countries will be reviewed. |
