Abstract
The Land Administration Domain Model (LADM) is a Draft International Standard (ISO DIS 19152) and in January 2011 was distributed by the ISO central secretariat for a five month voting and commenting time interval. If everything goes as planned, ISO 19152 will be an International Standard (IS) by 2012. In this paper the road towards this standard is briefly described. An overview of the DIS and the changes during the last year of the LADM standardization process is given; most of the changes are textual and organizational improvements. With the official status of the LADM as an International Standard approaching, the question arises: what’s next? The answer is of course, implementation and use in practice. Already several country profiles have been created and other model usage is being conducted; e.g. the Land Parcel Identification Systems of the European Union and the Social Tenure Domain Model. It was noted in earlier publications that Land Administration is key in the information infrastructure and strongly related to other registrations. Within LADM these registrations are explicitly indicated as external classes, such as persons (parties), addresses, valuation, taxation, land use, coverage, physical utility networks, etc. Within the European Union, some of these domains are treated in INSPIRE, but certainly not all. Here lies an important role for FIG at a global scale (and with a relationship to ISO). Also, FIG could continue the work of ISO on Observations & Measurements (ISO 19156, under development) and make sure that this standard is refined for cadastral surveying needs. The requirements from future land governance stem from improving registration of public restrictions, registration of public benefits, registration practices with regard to public land, registration of ‘public goods’ and its spatial extents and policy implications. In the past, there have been more publications on the anticipated developments of Land Administration, see (Van der Molen, 2003) and more recently (Bennett et al, 2010; Lemmens, 2010a; Lemmens, 2010b). The expected further requirements for the next decade are support of: mature information infrastructures to serve society; dynamic process models with updating/participation by actors; 3D, 4D and 5D that is, space, time and scale integrated in Land Administration; spatial design applications; new rights, restrictions and responsibilities; international semantic web-based seamless registration; monitoring applications and community driven cadastral mapping. LADM can bring support here from a modeling perspective.
