Customer requirements developed over time Land administration systems have a strong impact on legislation of other administrative tasks. A strong interaction between system design and customer requirements exist. Understanding legal and system constraints is absolutely necessary, because in land administration history is nearly unchangeable. Therefore understanding the history is knowing, what was the main purpose.
Main purposes were added over time Purpose of taxation: Property Tax Cadastre since 1817 since 1873 cadastre and land register in accordance Purpose of legal certainty: legal cadastre since 1969 surveyed boundaries are legally binding Purpose of automation since 1980 Real Property Register (no boundary information) since 1987 Digital Cadastral Map (boundary information) Purpose of information since 2003 Dissemination System egeodata Austria Purpose of integration since 2010 product web services since 2012 integrated Process between Cadastre and Land Reg.
Cadastre: from Documentation 1817 - The Cadastre documented primarily the relative position of parcels to another Therefore the cadastral map was a picture with very little legal relevance The main purpose of cadastre was taxation. Therefore the updating of the Cadastre had a low priority and was carried out only once a year. The archive of documents was more important, but in doubt the situation in nature was more valid then the deeds. Every Cadastral Unit has a cadastral map (Island maps)
to a reference documentation system Development of a system of rectangular map sheets all over the country Gauß-Krüger projection was the mathematical basis With the scale 1:1000 the cadastral map was the most detailed reference information Cadastral information was public and therefore available for other documentation purposes Geoinformation recorded for other purposes for example infrastructure building, Rural Development, Regional Planning, etc. was documented on copies of the cadastral map Million of blueprints of the cadastral maps were made each year and were then updated with the additional information 5 285 000 5 284 500 5 284 000 5 283 500 5 283 000 46 1 2 1 2 42 43 3 4 3 4 1 2 1 2 50 51 3 4 3 4 +1 250 +1 875 +2 500 +3 125 +3 750 29
.to an information system Digitization of the cadastral map Public authorities and infrastructure companies started using the Digital Cadastral Map as an information system therefore changed the requirements of CAD to GIS the correct topology of the data was a big challenge topological structures enabled the intersection and integration with other data (e.g. Real estate database, zoning,...) problem: Distribution and up-todate-ness of data
Requirements: Austrian Cadastre, fit for use? integrated Planning and Decision Support System Fast and reliable maintenance of date (no gaps) Traceability (Process documentation and historicization) The legal relevant information of the surveying deeds must be the same in the digital cadastral map Online availability Web services for online integration in customer systems Individual data requests on single objects and entities
