Osan City Conducts Boundary Adjustment Survey for 283 Parcels in Serang-dong Area

Osan City announced on the 23rd that it has been conducting cadastral resurveys for cadastral non-conformity areas on an annual basis from last year through this year.

According to the city, in order to address the maintenance of surveying non-conformity land (cadastral non-conformity) where cadastral map boundaries collectively fail to match actual boundaries, the city was selected as the only pilot project area in Gyeonggi Province by the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs in June of last year and secured 106 million won in national funds.

As the first target area of the pilot project, the survey was completed for 357 parcels in Serang 1 District last year. For the second target area of 283 parcels in Serang 2 District, a boundary adjustment survey is planned to be conducted with the attendance of landowners on-site.

The cadastral resurvey is based on the Special Act on Cadastral Resurvey, which was enacted on September 16 of last year to digitize 100-year-old paper cadastral maps and address cadastral non-conformity areas. The act took effect on March 17 of this year.

Until now, cadastral maps created during the Japanese colonial period had many errors and were paper-based, causing a problem in that they could not be integrated with other previously digitized information such as topographic maps and nautical charts.
