CONCEPT OF INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR LAND CONSOLIDATION PROJECTS / KONCEPT INFORMAČNÉHO SYSTÉMU PRE PROJEKTY POZEMKOVÝCH ÚPRAV

Land consolidation projects have reached the state where there is sufficient sample of projects with lots of valuable information in the Slovak Republic (planimetric and hypsographic measurements, updated maps of soil-ecological units, concepts of local territorial systems of ecological stability, plans for the general principles of functional organization of the territory, etc.). However, their longer-term utilization is questionable, because there is no central data archiving of the projects. Documents remain on a CD somewhere in the documentation of land offices in most cases. In worse cases, documentation might have been lent and later irretrievably lost. This paper describes concept for a new system that would provide a coherent overview, especially for the graphical outputs of land consolidation projects. It is called System OKTOPUS, and with its help we can analyze, process and archive the data generated in land consolidation projects and/or in other documentation. Spatial data are included into the catalog of topics and the topics are divided into registries in the OKTOPUS System. The presented model area is the catchment area of Žitava river, on which we illustrate the OKTOPUS System, including examples of possible use cases. The final aim of the OKTOPUS System is publishing data on the web using platform(s) that allow users sharing/editing the geographic data.
