Cadastral Data (MAT)

The land register is the basis for the registration of property in Denmark and forms an important part of the administrative base in the public administration. The cadastre consists, conceptually, of the cadastral register, the cadastral map and the cadastral archive. The register contains information on areas, including, where appropriate, road or watercourse areas, listing conditions (e.g. agricultural properties, total immovable property or forest). The cadastral map is a digital, legal map work showing the registered property boundaries and road rights. The land register map also shows the forested areas, zones for beach protection and dune conservation. The Matrikel Archive contains, among other things, previously applicable cadastral maps, cadastral protocols and registered cadastral cases, including target information. The cadastral register and the cadastre are integrated into a single data model, where “Matricular data” is the core data element. Cadastral data can be divided into three groups: Elements of the basic index, other elements and themes. The Basismatricle contains the elements of the cadastral process and they are important elements in determining the basic cadastral situation. Elements of the basic index: Cadastral, busy road, land plot, centroid point, dividing point, fixed point, boundary stone. Other elements contain administrative and cadastral areas which can be automatically derived from elements in the base cadastre. Thus, they are not directly part of the cadastral process, but can be used as support material in the process. Themes: Region, municipality, parish, owner low, manred, survey district. Finally, themes are elements that build on the basic cadastral situation, which is part of the cadastral process (land interest, majorat forest, stormfalls, forest conservation, beach protection, dune conservation, land contamination).
