On February 15th, 2012 experts in land tenure
from Norway visited USC's Land Information System,
the Land Laboratory (LaboraTe) and the Institute of Agricultural Biodiversity and Rural Development (IBADER).
This group of experts work at the Gulating Land Consolidation
Court of Appeal (Norway), solving conflicts of boundaries
of parcels, historical property rights, land consolidation
or dissolution of communal properties.
The group was interested in the structure of land tenure
in Galicia, the cadastral system, the Land Bank of Galicia
(BANTEGAL), and the applications made within the LaboraTe
of Geographic information Systems, and information technologies
in general, in tasks such as spatial databases management,
forest management or decision making, to mention some of
them.
One of the visitors was Per Kåre Sky,
appellate judge and teacher at the Universitete for Miljø og Biovitenskap
(Norwegian University of Life Sciences), who also participates
as a guest lecturer at the USC's Master in Sustainable Land Planning
teaching the subject "Negotiation and conflict resolution."
