Transitions in Romanian Land Information management and cadastral System between 1989-2019

Summary/Abstract: The analysis offers a definition of the concept of land information management and the cadastral system. It aims to identify the issues generated by the shortcomings of an anachronistic system that has precarious mechanisms for securing legal relations regarding the matter of ownership. This paper argues that land and cadastral systems’ management can no longer rely on manual processes or traditional structures. It must switch to multi-purpose cadastral systems that can integrate information on a range of issues including: natural resources; planning; use of land; sustainable development, and ownership titles’ value used for purposes such as the transfer of land and real estate marketing. The paper discusses the legal reforms necessary that should reflect the strategic policy evolutions, technological developments and institutional reforms. Although the ongoing reform offers a new vision of the land information management and cadastral system, the institutional deadlock may not be simply a failure but rather a difficult task to accomplish. The paper tries to approach exactly this aspect.
