The digital lodgement of cadastral survey data in VictoriaFalzon, Katie Unknown Date (has links) (PDF)
An integral part of the Victorian land registration system is the lodgement of cadastral data.Originally data was lodged to support the operation of the land market and the legal rights ofthe individual owner. The purpose for which it was designed, coupled with the technologythat was available at the time, resulted in a paper based system of plans and indexes. Due tomany external factors, the current land registration system has essentially remained the samefor the past 130 years. However the need for cadastral information means that plan lodgementnow serves a wider range of needs, and although changes have been made to the system, itwould seem that document-based systems are reaching the limit of cost-effectiveimprovement.A detailed study of the Victorian system of data lodgement has shown there to be severalinefficiencies within the system, many of which would benefit by the shift to a digitalenvironment. Research has also shown that the Victorian surveying profession is actuallyquite prepared to adapt to a digital environment, with many surveyors already preparing orsubmitting plans digitally.Other jurisdictions that are experiencing similar problems to Victoria have progressedsubstantially in this area and form ideal examples to learn from. The study of thesejurisdictions has shown that although technically the process of lodging data in a digitalformat is quite straightforward, there are still many technical and legal problems that must beresolved.It is envisaged that in the future, data be lodged in a digital format, which would involve there-engineering of the Victorian land registration system as we know it. This thesis exploresthe concept of the lodgement of cadastral survey data in a digital format, the issues associatedwith such a change and the long term benefits it will provide to the surveying, mapping andland development industries.
