The President decrees to abolish the State Committee for Land Policy and the Federal Forest Service. By the same Decree the President decrees to establish Federal Land Cadastre Service as having acquired a part of the functions of the abolished State Committee for Land Policy. The Presidential Decree sanctions to transfer to the Ministry of Natural Resources functions of the abolished Federal Forest Service. This Decree sanctions also to transform the Ministry of Agriculture and Food into the Ministry of Agriculture.

Ce dahir prévoit la possibilité d'une immatriculation d'ensemble des terres rurales, pour des zones qui seront délimitées par un arrêté du Ministre de l'agriculture et de la réforme agraire. Il fixe aussi les formes et les conditions dans lesquelles l'immatriculation d'ensemble sera effectuée.

La presente Ley, que consta de 18 artículos, dispone que el Instituto de Desarrollo Agrario llevará a cabo programas múltiples de titulación de tierras en zonas del país determinadas por la Junta Directiva de ese Instituto y que sean parte de las reservas nacionales; asimismo donde exista por lo menos una proporción del 20 por ciento de poseedores de fincas no inscritas en el registro público y cuyas cabidas no sean superiores a 300 hectáreas (art. 1º).

This report on the land data ecosystem in Madagascar is the first step towards providing a baseline and diagnostic tool to inform conversations around land and data governance. It aims to complement existing initiatives to improve the accuracy and extent of land data in Madagascar and identify opportunities to improve public access to all forms of land information.

Land rights are fundamental sources of tension in Liberia, so transparency about land information is both essential and highly politicized. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission and other scholars have documented land conflict as one of the major causes of the 14 year civil conflict (1989-2003) in Liberia, rooted in the country’s formation in the 19th Century as a land divided by indigenous peoples and freed slaves settling from the United States.

In Mozambique, the law recognizes certain forms of occupation as constituting legal tenure and nationals can claim this recognition of their right to occupy and use land allocated through customary norms/practices. Local communities can also claim rights over land which they have customarily occupied, used, and managed. These rights are not prejudiced by their lack of titling or documentation and may be defended on the basis of oral testimony.

Land information is critical for equitable land governance that benefits the most vulnerable and drives economic growth, sustainable development, and food security. However, land data and information sources remain highly fragmented, unstructured and do not present the full range of perspectives needed for decision making. Land governance, (laws, processes, and institutions) regulate how decisions concerning land are made, implemented, and enforced and require the best possible land data and information.

Spatial data are a basis in development of multipurpose cadastre. This paper aims to evaluate spatial data acquisition and management techniques for multipurpose cadastre in Ethiopia and Rwanda. The research was conducted using a qualitative research method, a review of existing literature on spatial data acquisition and management techniques for cadastral purposes. The empirical data have also been collected.

In Nigeria, the spatial requirements of cadastral map for the purposes of land registration are based on 2D planimetric boundary coordinates without consideration for the elevation component of geometric space. Whereas, recent development in technology and practises in many countries requires the inclusion of elevation component into the cadastre. The specific objectives of this study are to determine elevation values for existing 2D cadastre of the study area from different data sources and to analyze those elevation values using statistical means.
