The title benefits me because I can take out a loan. I can develop as a businesswoman and the value of my house increased. Some people lost aid from the state after they received the title. But in the long term, they will benefit because the land value will rise. |

Cadastral map shows quality labels for boundaries |
The cadastral map of the Netherlands shows the location and boundaries of parcels. Since the map is available as an open dataset, its use has increased tenfold. To make everyone understand that the cadastral map is just for orientation, not for exact measurements, we developed a new feature: quality labels for boundaries. |
