  2. What is the PCC? • The PCC (Permanent Committee on Cadastre in the European Union) is the International Organisation that joins together the Cadastral Institutions of the countries of the EU. • The PCC mission : • to create an adequate space in which to promote the full awareness of the activities developed by the European Union and the Member States related with Cadastre and, • by means of this information, to develop strategies and propose common initiatives with the aim of achieving greater co-ordination among the different European Cadastral Systems and their users.

  3. Where did it all start? • "First Congress on Cadastre in the European Union" - May 2002 under the auspices of the Programme of Activities of the Spanish Presidency of the E.U • Each country holding the EU presidency organises a meeting. • Main objectives: • to constitute a network of information on Cadastre, • to facilitate the exchange of information, expertise and best practices among the members, • to represent a privileged link between Cadastral Institutions and the organs of the EU • Cyprus joined PCC in 2005

  4. Main Areas of Interest in Cyprus (as specified in Denmark): • Current Economic Crisis – Property / Banking Sector • The CY DLS Land Information System • Inspire Directive – Latest Trends (Interoperability) • Standardisation – New Trends in Cadastre (LADM, 2020 Strategy, 3D Cadastre, Marine Cadastres, e-Governance) • “Common Vision” – Presentations (PCC, ELRA, EUROGEOGRAPHICS, EULIS) • Geopolitical – Geostrategic Changes in the area of Cyprus (East Mediterranean) – Natural Gas Resources - Property Investments • Handling of Presidency to Ireland

  10. A ONE-YEAR PROCESS (DENMARK & CYPRUS)! • Invitation of PCC, EG, ELRA and EULIS - January 2012 • Drafting group meeting in Copenhagen – March 2012 • Review group via e-mail – April 2012 • Comments by members – May 2012 • Discussions at joint PCC and EG seminar in Copenhagen – May 2012 • Discussions at the ELRA G.A. – June 2012 • Discussions at EULIS – June 2012 • Presidents meeting – July 2012 ( AGILE, EuroSDR, ELRA, EULIS, EUROGI, PCC at the invitation of EuroGeographics ) • New draft by CY PCC Presidency - August 2012 • Review ongoing (as of late August 2012) • CY Proposed Meeting – October 2012 (WPLA London) • SIGNING OF AGREEMENT IN CYPRUS!

  11. A N AGREEMENT “COMMON VISION” FOR COOPERATION • The four European Organisations representing National Cadastre and Land Registration Institutions / Authorities have agreed on a common vision to establish a close cooperation in order to achieve their common goals and will work together to: • Raise awareness among decision makers that Cadastral and Land Registration information and services are fundamental for secure land tenure, reliable land value, efficient land use and sustainable land development functions; • Raise awareness that Land Registers and, within their scope, Cadastres, have a significant role for protecting and prioritising legal rights and provide reliable and authoritative information, as well as, state of the art services, meeting the needs of private and public users; • Cooperate to facilitate the communication with European Institutions to promote our common vision.

  12. A N AGREEMENT “COMMON VISION” FOR COOPERATION • The organisations share the idea that Cadastral and Land Registry information and services should be an integral part of national e-Government infrastructures, while fully respecting the legal responsibilities of Cadastres and Land Registries and the need for legal security. We consider that this is of the uttermost importance for future developments in Europe; the focus of our strategy must be raising awareness of this fact in order to effectively influence the decision makers of European Policies.

  13. A N AGREEMENT “COMMON VISION” FOR COOPERATION • European developments and globalisation are becoming more and more important, directly affecting the way we operate and cross-border applications are demanded by citizens and administrations. As boundaries within and between countries become less restrictive and exchange of information becomes easier due to fast moving technologies, the need for cross-border cooperation is following on an equal basis. Sharing experiences and best practices amongst Cadastres and Land Registries in Europe is the key to inform and be informed

  36. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • DENMARK: • “As the first country in the world, Denmark has introduced digital conveyancing. The financial sector gets access through its own system, e-FPI (electronic Common Processes and Infrastructure), which is connected to the central system of the Justice Authority. The sector has developed its own solution (e-FPI) for digital registration. Digital registration can be accessed via an external portal, which is available at tinglysning.dk or via a system-to-system solution that establishes a direct access from the user's IT system for land registration system. The financial sector has largely chosen to align its own IT systems so that they can communicate directly with the digital registration system.”

  37. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • ITALY: • “Agenzia del Territorio (AdT) is engaged in several initiatives aiming at reducing tax evasion and avoidance in the real estate field. Among these initiatives, the Hidden Buildings Program is particularly significant, aiming at identifying buildings that, although existing, "are unknown to the Cadastre" and "rural" buildings that, although known to the Cadastre, have lost the requirements for tax allowance. In order to achieve the mentioned objectives, AdT has developed several cooperation activities with other institutional bodies, making use of modern investigation techniques for the analysis of a large amount of heterogeneous data. The strongly innovative element is the use of advanced technological platforms and the integration of AdT databases with external ones”

  38. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • GERMANY: • “Digital cadastral data, namely the cadastral map, is key reference data for a wide range of other applications such as land planning, archeological research, environmental assessments, and a lot more. Recently, so-called "Solar-katasters" have been developed by private or municipal entities that indicate the potential suitability of roofs of buildings for installations of solar panels.”

  39. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • FRANCE: • “Prior to mid-2011, a single map from the French land registry plan cost €9.50. Since roughly 600,000 maps are required to cover the territory of France, the cost of purchasing the entire set came to €5.7 million. Given the above, a cheaper pricing structure was introduced, along with a licence for reusing land registry maps for commercial purposes. The new structure had a threefold objective: to promote the land registry plan among users by making it more affordable, to bring prices into line with those observed on the European market for geographical information, and to boost economic activity among private-sector stakeholders. Since the new pricing policy became effective, private firms (major publishers of GPS maps) have purchased large quantities of maps for commercial reuse, spending more than €700,000 in all and stimulating their economic activity through the production, enhancement and resale of maps.”

  40. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • SWEDEN: • “On Lantmäteriet's public website, www.lantmateriet.se, there is a service called "Min fastighet" (My Property). Through that web application, any property owner can access all registered information about his/her property. To get access to this application, the property owner need to have an official e-identification, usually provided by banks etc. This means of identification is used also for efficient online income tax return procedures etc. Another service is called "Pågåendelantmäteriförrättningar" (Ongoing Cadastral Procedures), through wich property owners can access information about current cadastral procedures and also communicate directly with the responsible cadastral surveyor.”

  41. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • ENGLAND & WALES: • “We are currently prototyping a Public Sector Asset Register, which will include Land Registry data as a fundamental component. The PSAR will generate considerable efficiencies and savings across government in the use of government owned estate.”

  42. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • LATVIA: • “In 2011 the State Land Service (SLS) expanded the possibilities of requesting and receiving services remotely by using information and communications technologies. The e-services of the SLS in the data publication portal www.kadastrs.lvThere is a possibility to review the current cadastral text and spatial data available to the SLS electronically at the portal www.kadastrs.lv - on any real estate or the cadastre item (land unit, building, group of premises. • E-services to the providers of surveying services • E-services for the developers of detailed plans • E-services to state authorities and municipalities • E-services to the administrators of insolvency proceedings

  43. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • GREECE: • “During the recent administrative restructuring of the country (Kallicratis project), the number of municipalities has been considerably reduced. Often, because of the lack of organised records for the immovable property of each former-municipality, the newly-formed municipalities lacked the necessary information to organise the assets for which they now have the responsibility to manage. The cadastral records provide a uniform and complete way of collecting the pertinent information (including maps), that greatly facilitates the local administration in its operation. The relative information, is sent digitally from the cadastre to the local authorities to become the basis for their immovable property database.”

  44. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • THE NETHERLANDS: • “In these times of crises the fully digitally available digital data have allowed to generate national and local overviews of public (and private) ownership and use of land. These provide direct incentives to better manage and use public property and achieving cost savings. Similar overviews have been created to overviews of commercial real estate for banks and development corporations and municipalities. These help to assess the actual value of the real estate portfolio's and, maybe more importantly, to pinpoint where there are opportunities to invest, necessities to disinvest and possibilities to change use of real estate or properties.”

  45. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • SWITZERLAND: • “common data integration concept • -> standardized data modelling concept • -> independent information layers • -> common geodetic framework”

  46. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • CZECH REPUBLIC: • “One example of a best practice in use of digital Land Registry/Cadastral data in the Czech Republic is the Registry of territorial identification, addresses and real estate (RÚIAN), which is an integrated part of four Basic Registries of public administration in the CR. RÚIAN is the main source of reference and localization data on territorial items including parcels, buildings, territorial units and addresses. RÚIAN is directly linked to the cadastral data of the Information System of the Cadastre of Real Estate (ISKN) administered by the Czech Office for Surveying, Mapping and Cadastre (ČÚZK).”

  47. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • AUSTRIA: • “The Austrian cadastre is used for multiple purposes and serves as the basic system for a lot of public or private applications, such as zoning plans, Provincial Geographic Information Systems as well as for IACS (Integrated Agricultural Control System). Land register and cadastre are fully independent in organization, personal and financial matters but they are unified in a common data base, the “Real Estate database” (“Grundstücksdatenbank”). It contains both, the information from land book and the cadastral register. All information in the records is fully open to the public. There is an open access to the information by using modern web based services. All land book courts, cadastre offices, notaries, licensed surveyors, banks and many others have online access to the database.”

  48. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • HUNGARY: • “Since 1997, a completely computerised countrywide system has been managing both legal data and cadastral maps for covering the demands of both public and private clients who need this sort of data and various data products. Also a digital cadastre map standard has been introduced in 1997. The daily legal and cadastral mapping activities are performed by the land offices. The real property register is a system containing all landed property and other real estates in Hungary. It is open to public, except to query according to owner’s name linked to his/her properties. This is restricted to the court, the authorities of criminal investigation and taxation and others prescribed by law. The agricultural land lease registration as a separate registration also forms part of the system with direct link to the legal registry.”

  49. BEST PRACTICES EXAMPLES (QUESTIONAIRE): • CYPRUS: • “The Department of Lands and Surveys (DLS) adheres to “Best Practices” in both its procedures, as well as to the use and re-use of its data. DLS operates nearly on a full computerised basis, a multipurpose cadastre. The Department records all property related, legal, fiscal and spatial data. Legal and fiscal data, as well as, cadastral plans and maps are widely used as a fundamental record by a wide range of agencies. Information about development, utilities, land use, water resources, geology, and even statistical data for population, industry, agriculture and planning, are recorded on, or closely related to the cadastral plans. The implementation of e-Cadastre which is currently on the way, will serve the broader national objective for the development of e-Government in Cyprus.”
