Land fragmentation is a phenomenon which constitutes one of the biggest obstacles to profitable agricultural production. Measurable estimation of this phenomenon is possible by a number of known indicators, based on the surface area of parcels in the given area, their location in space and belonging to individual farms. This method of calculation of the indicators is inaccurate due to the phenomenon of neighbourhood of plots which belong to the same owners. For the purposes of calculating the ratios of actual fragmentation of land, these parcels should be treated as one complex. The article presents a proposal for the adjustment of existing methods of determination of the fragmentation of land indicators, taking into account these phenomena. The object of the research covered area of the voivodeship of Malopolska located in the southern part of Poland. Developed by the authors, method of calculation of land fragmentation indicators, based on complexes of land belonging to the same owners (complexes of plots aggregation), gives very good results in the evaluation of the intensity of the land fragmentation. Obtained in this way, indicator’s land fragmentation represents the real situation on the ground.

The object of the paper is to analyze the spatial structure of land and identification of the needs of consolidation works and exchange of land in the villages of the Sławno municipality, lying in the district of Opoczno, in the Łódzkie Voivodship. The authors use the method of zero...

Elements of each system and their interrelationships can be represented using models simulating reality. Analysis of the problem with the use of modeling methods facilitates the identification of the problem, its diagnosis and assessment of data quality. In this study, the method of semantic...

The article describes a detailed analysis of the modernisation procedure for cadastral data in Poland in both theoretical and practical aspects. Modernisation of the cadastral system is an essential tool to ensure both the continuity in time and the timeliness of cadastral data. In Poland, the function of the Cadastre is served by a public register known as the Land and Building Cadastre which records the actual data on the ground, resulting from the current state of ownership or use. Legal data are stored in a separate register known as the Land and Mortgage Register. The Cadastre in Poland has numerous disadvantages; however, its advantage is that no construction of the system anew is required. The existing cadastral data need to be skilfully used, and the quality of cadastral data needs to be adjusted to international requirements through the use of technical and legal guidelines in the field of modernisation. The research material consisted of source texts of existing legal provisions equivalent to an act of legislature and implementing regulations as well as technical documentation for modernisation works performed in southern Poland (Małopolskie Voivodeship). The method of comparative analysis of the compliance of modernisation work results with national requirements was applied. An analysis of the adopted indicators for cadastral data evaluation, using the selected example, showed that the properly performed modernisation of the Land and Building Cadastre may become a tool for improving the land management and administration process.

The article has analytical and conceptual character. It contains a detailed analysis of the scope of cadastral information on waters based on actual data from the regional databases, which are established in four logistically major cities in Poland: Warsaw, Krakow, Wroclaw and Szczecin. The authors examine the contents of water cadastre databases in Poland and possibilities of using them in building the 3D cadastre. The concept of using water cadastre as a subsystem of the 3D cadastre presented in the work was carried out using graphical methods of the object-oriented analysis. The authors present a Real Estate Cadastre (REC) model based on synchronisation of the Land Register databases with the water cadastre databases carried out in District Water Management Boards. Modernisation and thematic expansion of Land Register databases, which act in Poland as cadastre, consistent with the presented REC model is a chance to improve the real estate market in Poland.
