Land administration
International Land Measurement Standard: Due Diligence for Land and Real Property Surveying, 1st edition, published by the International Land Measurement Standard Coalition in May 2019, defines land administration as: ‘The process of determining, recording and disseminating information about ownership, value and use of land and its associated resources. These processes include the determination (sometimes called ‘adjudication’) of land rights and other attributes, surveying and describing these, their detailed documentation, and the provision of relevant information for supporting land markets. In some countries the terms Land Administration, Land Governance and Land Management are sometimes used interchangeably.’
However, it defines land governance as: 'The policies, processes and institutions by which land, property and natural resources are managed.'
