내용

Busan Metropolitan City announced that it held the “Cadastral Seminar and Best Practices Contest for Cadastral Resurvey” on June 27 at Domoheon to foster the development of future-oriented smart cadastral systems and to improve related policies.

The event was organized to share exemplary district-level initiatives employing new technologies in cadastral surveying, strengthen on-site responsiveness, and discover and recognize creative ideas and practical research projects.

More than 60 participants—including public officials responsible for cadastral affairs in each district and professionals from cadastral surveying organizations—attended the contest, which comprised presentations on research projects and exemplary cadastral resurvey cases, a Q&A session, judging, and an awards ceremony.

Presentation topics were divided into two categories:
• Cadastral category: realization of a digital-platform government, innovations in cadastral surveying technologies, and enhancement of public cadastral services

• Cadastral resurvey category: institutional improvements to the cadastral resurvey system, efficient boundary demarcation and minimization of area variation, and best practices in handling civil complaints such as adjustment-fee payment and collection

Of the 34 entries submitted by 16 districts, eight were selected through a preliminary review for presentation at the event. After on-site evaluation, one grand prize and two excellence awards were conferred.

The grand prize was awarded to Mr. Ban Gyu-don, an officer from Haeundae-gu, for his presentation titled “Enhancing Field Operations in Cadastral Resurvey Using QField*.”

Excellence awards were presented to Ms. Eom Da-hae of Sasang-gu and Ms. Bu Si-jeong of Seo-gu.

QField is a mobile application that allows users to view, edit, and manage geographic information system (GIS) data in the field.

Two of the awardees will represent Busan at the 48th National Cadastral Seminar and the Best Practices Contest for Cadastral Resurvey during Digital Cadastral Day, hosted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport this coming September.

Min Soon-ki, Director General of Urban Spatial Planning at Busan Metropolitan City, stated, “We will continue to share outstanding case studies and actively develop systems that help prevent land-boundary disputes among citizens, ensuring uninterrupted cadastral administrative services.”
