Extra information

The municipality, the Land Registry, and other private and government agencies are responsible for land surveys. The Land Registry’s survey is decisive in determining the area of a parcel. The municipality (or the Land Registry, acting on behalf of the municipality) also surveys the so-called underground infrastructure, such as cables and pipes, and records this information on a land survey map ( Map).

Surveying data is topographic data. This includes, for example, data on the elevation and area of land or buildings, as well as data from measurements of trees, cables, pipes, and property lines. The municipality uses this data to create the “ environmental plan.”
