| Our Goal 
The goal of the EuroGeographics Cadastre and Land Registry Group is to facilitate
the exchange of 'best' practice at a European level in order to achieve our Vision for Cadastre and Land Registration in Europe 2012.
Our work supports
the decision makers of the EuroGeographics member organisations and other interested parties in the establishment of effective spatial
data infrastructures and secure (inter)national financial
and land markets in support of sustainable development and
good governance.
Scope
To this end, the group deals with questions relating to the
traditional cadastre (documenting the property objects and
integration with topographic mapping) as well as questions
related to the land register (documenting legal and related
rights in properties). It does not cover the wider land administration
activities of land consolidation, valuation, planning etc
.
Partnerships
The Group works in partnership with
other organisations and pan-European associations engaged
in cadastre and land registry activities including the UNECE WPLA , the PCC, World bank, FIG, EUROGI,
ELRA, CLGE, Geometer Europas and CINDER. It is also involved in relevant European projects such as EULIS.
In this spirit, membership of the group has been opened up
to non-EuroGeographics members.

Vision document Cadastre and Land Registration in Europe 2012, |
| |
A joint working group, consisting of delegates of EuroGeographics’ expert group on Cadastre and Land Registry and the Permanent Committee on Cadastre, has investigated the existing reliance on cadastral parcels in European countries in national spatial data infrastructures and its relation with the INSPIRE directive.
Two questionnaires were sent to members; the first was to define the role of the cadastral parcel as well as to make a general inventory of its relevant characteristics. Based on the results of the first questionnaire the second one focused on the use of the cadastral parcel within the national SDI and its current importance in society. The result of the inventory is described in the report: 'The cadastral parcel in NSDI's and in INSPIRE'.
The two completed questionnaires can be found here. 11 September 2007
