Toward the Development of a Marine Administration System Based on International Standards

Abstract

Abstract:The interests, responsibilities and opportunities of states to provide infrastructure and resource management are not limited to their land territory but extend to marine areas as well. So far, although the theoretical structure of a Marine Administration System (MAS) is based on the management needs of the various countries, the marine terms have not been clearly defined. In order to define an MAS that meets the spatial marine requirements, the specific characteristics of the marine environment have to be identified and integrated in a management system. Most publications that address the Marine Cadastre (MC) concept acknowledge the three-dimensional (3D) character of marine spaces and support the need for MC to function as a multipurpose instrument. The Land Administration Domain Model (LADM) conceptual standard ISO 19152 has been referenced in scholarly and professional works to have explicit relevance to 3D cadastres in exposed land and built environments. However, to date, very little has been done in any of those works to explicitly and comprehensively apply LADM to specific jurisdictional MAS or MC, although the standard purports to be applicable to those areas. Since so far the most comprehensive MC modeling approach is the S-121 Maritime Limits and Boundaries (MLB) Standard, which refers to LADM, this paper proposes several modifications including, among others, the introduction of class marine resources into the model, the integration of data on legal spaces and physical features through external classes, as well as the division of law and administrative sources. Within this context, this paper distinctly presents both appropriate modifications and applications of the IHO S-121 standard to the particular marine and maritime administrative needs of both Greece and the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago.Keywords: marine administration system (MAS); marine cadastre (MC); marine information data model; land administration domain model (LADM); ISO 19152; S-121 maritime limits and boundaries (MLB); marine rights; restrictions and responsibilities (RRRs)

Cadastro Marinho no Atlântico Sul: evolução, situação e perspectivas

“…Neste sentido, um CM poderia registrar e controlar os diferentes direitos e licenças outorgadas em áreas marinhas, tomando como base o entorno ecológico e o zoneamento definido a partir dos planos especiais para o ambiente marinho, nos casos em que existam. Athanasiou et al (2017) ampliam ainda mais a visão ao afirmar que o CM é um dos componentes fundamentais que integram um Sistema de Administração Marinha -MAS (por sua sigla em inglês Marine Administration System). Associando o CM às Infraestruturas de Dados Espaciais Marinhos -IDEM e às políticas de planejamento espacial marítimo, se estabelecem relações sinérgicas que permitem configurar um MAS de maneira integrada.…”

“…Um dos objetivos destes desenvolvimentos é sustentar com informação geográfica os aspectos legais marinhos, o que permite adaptar-se ou incluir-se dentro de padrões específicos como a ISO-19152 do LADM (Land Administration Domain Model). Athanasiou et al (2017) sugerem que a forma Objeto-Direito-Sujeito que o LADM estabelece como núcleo principal, pode aplicar-se ao território marinho, e sua integração com a série S-100 e S-121 define o marco adequado para descrição dos OTLM.…”

“…From the above discussion emerges lack of a common standard and an agreed basis for a conceptual model to explicitly handle the maritime 3Rs and their spatial extensions (Alberdi & Erba, 2020;Athanasiou et al, 2017b). Additionally, a clear emphasis on the relationship and correlation between MSP and MMIMC has not been forthcoming until recently (see, e.g., Athanasiou et al, 2017b;Arvanitis et al, 2016).…”

Additionally, a clear emphasis on the relationship and correlation between MSP and MMIMC has not been forthcoming until recently (see, e.g., Athanasiou et al, 2017b;Arvanitis et al, 2016). Practice studies show, firstly, that there is no clear understanding between MSP and MMIMC, sometimes even perceived as two synonymous terms and, secondly but more generally, awareness of the term "marine cadastre" is quite low (PCC et al, 2017).…”

Infrastructure of the Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE) Based on Examples of Italy and Poland

“…The key is choosing the type of data that can be integrated with other information at the international level [17]. To this end, catalogued information that is standardized to international ISO standards is used, which ensures the integrity of national data and data consistency at the international level [18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. Researchers are developing conceptual models to allow geographic data to be implemented in geographic information systems in accordance with the ISO 19.100 family standards [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32] and also to allow an assessment of the quality of geographic information in accordance with the ISO 19.100 family of national geoporlations to be carried out [2,23,[33][34][35][36][37].…”
