Welcome Reception


Your New Zealand hosts warmly invite you to join them at the Welcome Reception to be held at the Transitional Cathedral.

The Transitional Cathedral was built after the original Christchurch Cathedral was badly damaged in the earthquake in February 2011. This is the world’s only cathedral made substantially of cardboard and is affectionally known amongst the locals as the ‘Cardboard Cathedral’.

Dinner and beverages will be available with background music and a great ambiance, the perfect opportunity to catch up with your fellow FIG delegates.

The Cathedral is an easy walk from the central city and most conference accommodation however coaches will be provided.

2016 FIG Director Generals Forum - Session 1: Experiences on 3D mapping
Chair: Mr. Peter Mersi, LINZ, New Zealand and Mr. Anders Sandin, Lantmäteriet, Sweden


The Annual FIG Director Generals Forum brings together Chief Executives or Director Generals (or their representatives or nominees) of national (or provincial) agencies and FIG Affiliate Membership that has responsibility over mapping, cadastral, valuation, planning and development, land administration and management from around the world. The Forum allows peer-to-peer engagement to address the challenges and opportunities of the times including the responsibility of national agencies to stay relevant and effective within its jurisdiction.
Following the DG Forum in Sofia, Bulgaria, in 2015, we will again focus on 3D mapping in the first session. This is an issue of growing importance, and the objective is to share the latest developments and lessons – not only in technical aspects but maybe more concerning financing, benefits and involvement of stakeholders.

Platinum member: Esri - Modernizing Land Administration
Chair: Mr. Brent Jones, United States


Technology for Land Administration - Cadastre, National Mapping and Valuation in the Developed and Developing World
Most countries in the world are working towards modernizing their land administration systems – cadastre, national mapping, and valuation. Ongoing challenges include—keeping authoritative land information current, complete, accurate, and secure while providing access to data across multiple networks to multiple stakeholders. Legacy technology puts up barriers that inhibit access to data across ministries, departments, and municipal and national offices. Complex, highly customized workflows can be cumbersome, inefficient, and costly to maintain. Hard coded, custom systems are very costly to maintain, update, and sustain and are vulnerable to security breaches.

Leveraging the cloud, webGIS, mobile devices, global standards and best practices, this session will provide attendees with an understanding of how to improve and implement new land administration capabilities quickly and easily. All conference attendees are welcome. An interactive discussion is expected.

UN Habitat-GLTN & FIG Joint Technical Session: Fit-For-Purpose Land Administration
Chair: Mr. Kees De Zeeuw, The Netherlands
Rapporteur: Mr. John Gitau, UN Habitat-GLTN

• Most developing countries are struggling to find remedies for their many land problems. Existing investments in land administration have been fragmented and have not delivered the required pervasive changes and improvements at scale. New solutions are required that can deliver security of tenure for all, are affordable and can be quickly developed and incrementally improved over time. The Fit-For-Purpose (FFP) approach to land administration has emerged to meet these simple, but challenging requirements.
• This FFP approach has been recognized and supported by FIG and the World Bank.

TS03B - Earthquake Monitoring and GNNS Applications
Commission: 5 and 6
Chair: Mr. Leonid A. Lipatnikov, Russian Federation
Rapporteur: Ms. Li Zhang, Germany

This session shows two foci. The first one points on one disaster aware to everybody in the region: earthquakes. So an important task of geodetic engineers is the monitoring of earthquakes as well as pre-seismic and post-seismic movements. Different analyses of displacements as well as monitoring systems are presented in this session which is mainly dedicated to events in the wider region. The second focus are GNSS applications mainly in the emerging transportation domain.

Rapporteur: Mr. Cromwell Manaloto, Italy

The need to prevent or minimize the consequences of disasters is connected to the updating of the research and prevention of risk factors. Natural hazards can not be reset. To ensure the general safety, the risk must be contained at acceptable levels. This can easily happen just by taking adequate measures in the field of Homeland Security, Environmental Protection Services, Civil Protection, Fire Protection, Health.

TS5I - Christchurch - the 2010 earthquake: Disaster Recovery and Planning and Building Resilient Infrastructure for the Future
Commission: 8
Chair: Mr. Bruce Keith, United Kingdom


Christchurch suffered severe earthquake sequences in 2010 and 2011 which caused significant damage to property and infrastructure. In these sessions, professional water and drainage engineers from CIWEM's Network in New Zealand tell their story of disaster recovery in the immediate aftermath of the earthquakes, the strategies which were developed and implemented to deal with the risks inherent in such situations and the significant efforts which have gone into planning, designing and building the infrastructure for the new Christchurch. Richly illustrated with case studies on key infrastructure, this series of presentations demonstrates the appliance of expertise and teamwork, coupled with a whole life costing methodology, used in evaluating and developing resilient installations and systems for the future. The speakers will share experiences in the lessons learnt over the last 5 years, what expertise is transferrable to other disaster sites around the globe and the opportunity to trial new technology - pushing the barriers of experience to develop, design and deliver smart, cost-effective solutions for the city's infrastructure.

FIG Task Force on Real Estate Market Study
Chair: Mr. Pekka Halme, Finland, Chair of Task Force


The Task Force on Real Estate Market Study was established at the General Assembly of the FIG Working Week 2015 in Sofia. The aim is to carry out a study on the real property markets in the UNECE region.

This session offers a chance to get the pulse on the current situation and preliminary re-sults of the Task Force. It offers a great opportunity to bring in new ideas and discuss the questions around the real estate market topic in a wider perspective. We are convinced that we, the Task Force, will gain more insight from these discussions and they will un-doubtedly help us to prepare for the first seminar and along the way towards the final findings. So, join us and help us cast a solid foundation for the work.

FIG & FAO Joint Technical Session: How can Land Professionals support the implementation of VGGTs
Chair: Ms. Diane Dumashie, United Kingdom, FIG Vice-President
Rapporteur: Mr. Robin McLaren, United Kingdom

The objectives of the session are:
Improving governance of tenure requires contributions by all, including ensuring synergies with similar initiatives, as different actors and stakeholder groups can make their own specific contributions. Surveyors, whether in their everyday work or in their contribution to country, regional and global processes play a fundamental role.

This high-level session roundtable discussion will discuss challenges, ideas, solutions and opportunities for surveyors to improve governance of tenure at global, regional and country levels. Tabled for debate the session will provide concrete examples that can be taken by individuals to solutions that require long-term concerted efforts.

TS07C - INSPIRE, NSDI & SDI
Commission: 3
Chair: Mr. Robert Foster, United States
Rapporteur: Ms. Maria Grazia Scorza, Italy

The relationship between the production of data and the processing capacity is very tight for spatial information. Europe supports EU environmental policies discouraging activities that may have an impact on the environment. In general, the systems INSPIRE, NSDI & SDI constitute infrastructures for spatial information established and operated at the level of large areas. The themes of spatial data is usually reconnected to environmental applications with specific search details. To ensure compatibility and usability within a common framework, it is necessary that there is a rule (IR) in a number of specific areas (metadata, data specifications, network services, data and service sharing and monitoring and reporting)

Session six: Key staff retention pointers.
by Jay Mclean (Tonkin & Taylor)
[handouts]

In spite of technological advances that have changed the geospatial system, human capital remains central to a surveyor’s landscape. Clients, workers, and families - peoples’ wellbeing is always at the heart of work. Our client’s experience is closely connected to the employee experience and family life is intimately tied to work. People adding value, feeling valued, giving more and getting better underpins the sustainability of our businesses.

TS08C - GIS, 3D Data and Cadastre
Commission: 3 and 7
Chair: Mr. Yerach Doytsher, Israel
Rapporteur: Mr. Cromwell Manaloto, Italy

The spatial data infrastructure (SDI) are needed to manage the interest on real estate ownership and related resources.
The normal administrative systems currently use 2D models as a basis to identify, record and disseminate information concerning the possession and ownership of land and buildings.
The presentations provide contributions to the search for a suitable system linking the cadastral map or other maps, the information and images that represent the scope of rights and possibilities of their treatment by the Public Administration. The system can be described as 3D models. It is able to store, compare, query, do the analysis and updating, formalizing restrictions and responsibilities. From an institutional point of view it is the most modern framework.
