Co-operation of Public and Private Sector by Development of Practical
Requirements for EU Accession Countries for Land Information Systems
in Respect to Agriculture
by Carsten Kragh
Key words: EU requirements, spatial reporting,
declaration systems
Abstract
In 1992 a reform of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) was
introduced. The reform required a complete restructure of the aid
system and, subsequently, a new spatial agricultural reporting system
had to be invented and implemented in all the Member States. The
reform is by far the most radical requirement imposed by the European
Commission in terms of geographical reporting, and the different
Member States have made substantial investments in their different
Integrated Administrative Control Systems (IACS).
With the current legislation, new Member States joining the EU will
have to create similar systems. Creating an IACS has been a
substantial project for all the Member States and it is therefore
essential for coming Member States to prepare the entry in the EU in
order to use the co-financing opportunities in an optimal way and to
be ready with the system within the timeframe given.
