Experiences of the 3D cadastre legislation
Eriksson, Goran and Cecilia Adolfsson
A new legislation for multi-dimensional real property formation (3D Cadastre) came into force in Sweden on January 1 2004. The act is considered to be the most important basic change that has taken place in Swedish cadastral legislation during the past 30 years. In Sweden, multi-dimensional real property units are created through a cadastral procedure. An application for implementation of such a procedure must be made to a Cadastral Authority. Before the application for real property formation is approved, a cadastral surveyor evaluates whether the general requirements concerning suitability and the specific conditions regulating multi-dimensional units are satisfied. The Act has now been active for 2.5 years and what experiences can be drawn from it? There has been a genuine interest for 3D real property formation and the Act has functioned very well. It has been estimated that about 100 multi-dimensional property units were formed during the first year. However, this was shown to be an optimistic prediction. Since the introduction, there have been 90 multi-dimensional property units formed in totally 75 cadastral survey procedures.
