The phased 3D cadastre implementation in the Netherlands
Stoter, Jantien, Peter van Oosterom & Hendrik Ploeger
After more than a decade of 3D cadastre research in the Netherlands, including detailed analysis of various complex 3D right configurations and development of several prototypes, the Dutch Kadaster is implementing a 3D cadastre solution. Earlier research showed that the registration and publication of rights on multi-level property is possible within the existing system in the Netherlands. However, as demonstrated in these earlier publications, this way of registration has limitations. The most important is that it may require a mental exercise to understand 3D property situations based on information available in the land and cadastral registers. Sometimes the registration is ambiguous and reality is even needed to understand the registration instead of vice versa. To meet these limitations, the Dutch Kadaster is currently designing and implementing the cadastral system extension for registration of 3D rights (and restrictions). The solution is partly driven by the alternatives as studied in previous research and partly by the observation that implementing 3D cadastre in practice is a process that requires experience- and knowledge- building. Uncertainties on the implementation of a 3D cadastre in a specific country exist due to technological developments on the one hand and cadastral and legal developments on the other hand. Also two disciplines are involved (i.e. technical and legal experts) who need to understand the impact of 3D cadastre in each other's domain for proper 3D cadastre developments. To meet these uncertainties, the proposed 3D cadastre NL solution consists of a two-phase process. The aim of the first phase is to gain experiences by introducing evolving technologies in the legal domain of 3D cadastre. The second phase will aim at a more advanced 3D cadastre solution, which will accomplish a 3D cadastral registration at a fundamental level. Both phases do fit in the ISO FDIS 19152 Land Administration Domain Model via 3D country profiles for the Netherlands. This paper will start with identifying the situations appropriate for a 3D approach. After that the two phases are further explained. The paper will end with conclusions and work in progress.
