Towards spatially enabled land administration : improving systematic registration
Stanley, Victoria & Mika-Petteri Torhonen
Spatially enabled land administration can provide improved services and information for a variety of uses across the economy, both public and private. In many parts of the world the available information is neither complete nor up to date. Many countries have decided to resolve this problem through systematic cadastre and registration programs and projects going parcel by parcel across a given territory collecting information on location, rights and people. While there is no one size fits all solution, there are a number of lessons learned and good practices that would be applicable across regions and countries. The Bank has extensive experience with systematic titling and registration and cadastre services across several regions. This paper will outline some common themes and issues based on experience from two regions: Europe and Central Asia (ECA) and Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).
