Integration of public-right restrictions into cadastre case study from the practice

Dutschler, Peter

At the 2002 Washington congress, the author presented "Cadastre 2014 in Practice Activities of the Swiss Private Sector ", where the activities of the Swiss private sector were presented. It was recognized that the visions as formulated in the publication "Cadastre 2014" should be moved forward; they not only pose challenges, but offer huge opportunities for the profession itself. Cadastral surveyors can take the lead in becoming information service providers and even information brokers. Information technology, data modeling, as well as a political and a client-oriented way of thinking play a crucial role. Since the Washington congress the private sector in Switzerland invested a lot of energy to bring down the visions of Cadastre 2014 into practice. To continue and professionalize the results of the working group private surveyors founded in 2003 the cooperative CADASTRE 2014. More than 1,000 Swiss laws on the Federal, cantonal and communal level were inspected for articles regulating or restricting the use of land or other particulars with spatial reference. The data model and its implementation in the leading GIS software are completed, the training of the members is in progress and the online shop to distribute the reports per plot is ready. The article will also inform about the data collection campaign which will start in 2006 to get a good data coverage as soon as possible, the next challenge to make it ready for the market.
