Background & Purpose

To make land surveying more efficient and legally consistent across the country, the government identified a need to move away from fragmented local systems. By using a single national platform, the process becomes more reliable for everyone involved.

The Decision

The parliament decided that all municipal land survey authorities must switch to the digital case management system provided by the state.

Does this affect you?

  • Municipal land survey staff: They must learn and transition to the new state-provided digital system for all their daily case management tasks.
  • Property owners: They will benefit from a more uniform and legally secure process when applying for property changes or land divisions, regardless of their municipality.

In Practice

  • Municipalities must stop using their own custom software for land survey cases.
  • All land survey authorities will use the same technical tools provided by the state.
  • The change ensures that legal standards and processing methods are identical regardless of which municipality handles the case.
  • The new requirement becomes mandatory starting on January 1, 2027.
