Tenure Security as a Service

Kees de Zeeuw & Martin Salzmann

The world around us is changing. Some changes go fast, others even faster. In this changing world the need for security and stability is a constant factor. When it comes to access to land, land use and living, land administration plays an important role in taking care of the security and stability. The need for a good land administration can be clearly derived from the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG?s) Analysing the 17 goals it is found that land administration systems have impact on the feasibility of many of these goals. In this paper various trends and developments are identified. Livelihood insecurity will be a global issue as well as the shift in land use from rural to urban. Our society will be networked and economies will have more focus on sharing and individual entrepreneurship. In that world trust in (governemental) information will be essential. This can be only achieved with the help of moderne technology and digitazation of data. Making use of modern technology, services can be developed accordingly. Another fast developing aspect in our profession, is the societal demand. The trends and developments we describe, can be translated into issues that effect our daily pratice of land administration in the near future. An overview of issues is given. It is our challenge to provide society with stability and security in this changing world. To do this, it is necessary to explore new ways to do our work and become service oriented.
