Implementing a cadastre in internet in Poland
Karabin, Marcin
In Poland cadastre is maintained on a district level (each province is divided into district units in Polish powiatt which consists of one or more communes). There is no unified standard of cadastral software in Poland, only standard of exchanging cadastral data exists. In this connection there is over 30 software solutions used in cadastre (only 7 with descriptive and cartographic part of cadastre integrated in one relational database) and amount of cadastral databases is closer to the amount of districtts units (over 370). In this group there is some districts which implemented modern cadastral software solutions, which allow to distribute cadastral data through internet. One of the pioneers in this field is Warsaw West Districtt which implemented three modern cadastral solutions. First is an internet accessed cadastral map integrated with base map, control pointss database and ortophotomaps. Many elements, including cadastral map is freely available for citizens. Second solutions is system designed for internet access to descriptive part of cadastre and now is in use for employees of communes covered district (only-because of personal data protection act). Third system is an internet accessed register of the properties salees prices and values of properties came from documentation made by valuers for citizens for single properties (not from mass valuation process). System is in last phase of implementation (updating of the database) and will be available for land brokers and valuers (only-because of personal data protection act). In paper there are described those solutions in connection with current legal conditions in this field in Poland.
