Cadastre

General info:

Lands in Israel are largely registered (more than 97%) by the registration of rights method. By this method, the lands are distributed to land units, parcels and blocks. The cadastre unit at the Survey of Israel is mainly involved with reviewing and approving maps that form the basis for the registration of rights (cadastre maps) that specify the geographical location, the borders and areas of the parcels. The maps are drawn based on proprietary (lands regulations) or planning processes (plan for registration purposes- parceling). 

The cadastre unit comprises the head office units as follows:

• The lands arrangement unit engages in measurement and review processes in lands arrangements that are unregulated.
• The plan for registration purposes unit engages in reviewing and approving lands transformations (plan for registration purposes).
• The Coordinating Survey Registry Department unit engages in reviewing and approving drawings in order to document borders aimed at improving borders of registered parcels.

The unit also consists of:

The Survey of Israel's spaces in the Galilee, Haifa, Jerusalem and Beer-Sheva districts where reviews and approvals of the plans for registration purposes are primarily engaged, including additional services for surveyors and the general public.
The division also includes the officer's head office for Judea and Samaria, which forms the statutory authority for mapping and measurement activities in C areas in Judea and Samaria, as well as a small unit in Erez's district coordination and liaison that engages in running geographical data.
