The Land Administration Domain Model (LADM) is an ISO standard (ISO 19152). LADM is a conceptual information model for Land Administration. The ArcGIS Parcel Fabric, released in 2019, is a physical implementation of LADM.  This recording provides some background on both LADM and the parcel fabric, walks through the different terms used, demonstrates the parcel fabric's conformance with LADM, and shows how to implement it. Attached below is the LADM XML Workspace document. You can import it to a new geodatabase as demonstrated in this video.   Feel free to leave a comment or ask any questions. Many thanks to Chrit Lemmen, Peter Van Oosterom and Eftychia Kalogianni for their support.     ... View more

Fit for Purpose Land Administration The need for scalable, sustainable and affordable approaches We live in an insecure era with climate change, conflicts, dense populations, and increasing poverty and inequity. Good land administration is a basic requirement for governments and societies to address these challenges. Many guidelines, tools and frameworks have been developed, and are freely available to guide decision makers and professionals towards good land administration. Still, the practical implementations by Land Administration Authorities demand good decision support for making the best choices in IT, capacity development and financial investment. The Fit for Purpose Land Administration approach is helpful in this decision support. Key elements in the systems to be developed is that they are scalable, sustainable and affordable. This is affected by the choices made for data modeling, technology and system architecture. The geospatial framework that is developed, should be in balance with the (national) legal and institutional framework.
