The evolving function of land administration in society : capitalizing on investments in a digital land register and cadastre in the Netherlands

Molen, Paul van der

This paper deals with the evolving function of land administration in society. That is to say, if -at least- the land administration organisations are able (both from the perspective of mandate and ambition) to capitalize on their earlier investments in conversion from an analogue towards a digital environment. Needs of the market (land, real estate, credit), the wish for better performance of the government and e-government-initiatives provide good opportunities to strengthen the land administration fundament. Some real life examples of the Dutch Kadaster are taken as an illustration.
