Utilization of Cloud Computing for Presentation of Cadastre Data

SUMMARY Recent developments in Cloud Computing (CC) technology affect Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Geographical Information Systems (GIS). Due to harmonization of these technologies a new area called Spatial Cloud Computing (SCC) has been emerged. CAD and GIS are essential tools for a cadastre application. SCC will bring efficiency and velocity to process of cadastre applications done by government or private sector. Internet’s accessibility will make spatial/non-spatial file shares easier and faster. As an example a surveyor in land may easily access to maps, satellite views or any data relevant without any obligation of going to office. This access also can be possible with smart phone, tablet or laptop thus just necessity is internet connection. With SCC user will be able to view, edit or share cadastre data or land title independent of installing any CAD or GIS software. On the other hand, at cadastre applications SCC brings functionality, high capacity and scalability besides accessibility. In this paper the innovations SCC brings to cadastre and related geospatial studies were researched and some of these were tested, verified with case studies.
