Design of the new structure and capabilities of LADM edition II including 3D aspects

The decision to refine the existing content and to extend the scope of Edition I of the ISO 19152:2012 Land Administration Domain Model (LADM) is a response to requests from the international Land Administration (LA) community. This response has to be formally organised in accordance with ISO guidelines. This begins with gathering feedback...

A Suggested Terminology for Point-Like Entities in a Bi-Temporal Representation of 2D and 3D Land Administration Data

The prime purpose of Cadastral data – whether in the form of maps, survey plans or notes, or a digital database is the definitive demarcation of the extent of properties – and can be seen primarily as a decision support facility (“Can a structure be built here?”, “Where can I build a fence?”, “Should I buy this property”?). There are, however...

Initial Inventory of 3D Cadastre Use Cases in the Caribbean

As argued in many earlier FIG publications, the potential benefits of 3D Cadastre are huge. This is especially true in the Caribbean setting with quite dense urban areas and large and important marine areas, where rights (restrictions and responsibilities; RRRs) in 3D is a prerequisite for the blue economy. The Caribbean with a plethora of 3D...

3D Cadastre Development in Hungary

Geometric part of the Unified Hungarian Land Registry (Cadastral maps) has been operating in standardized environment since 1996. MSZ 7772-1 Standard on Digital Base Map (developed by Institute of Geodesy Cartography and Remote Sensing, FÖMI) — based on the pre ISO and CEN standards on Geographic Information — defines a 3D relational database...

3D Cadastre in China - a Case Study in Shenzhen City

A rapid urban growth in China urges to extend land use to land space use in three dimensions due to limited land resource in cities. 3D cadastre is emerging as an effective means to support such a demands for using urban land in a way of three dimensions. Shenzhen, located in the south-eastern coastal region of China, as one of the most...
