Land properties of Guyana (2017)
Description
The AUDeG published a mapping atlas of French Guiana’s land properties in 2017 (available for free download on its website: http://www.audeg.fr/ftparuag/aruag/ressources/docs_telechargement/Ob-Foncier_3.pdf). From the graphical files and literal data of the cadastre (thousand January 2017), the AUDeG proposes an anonymised classification of land ownership distinguishing, according to a communal division, the following properties:
State (DDE, DGAC, Ministries, Local Department of the Domain, etc.)
— Local authority of Guyana
— Communes (CACL, CCEG, Cayenne, Maripasoula, etc.)
— Public or similar establishments (NFB, EPFA Guyana, CNES, Conservatoire du littoral, Pôle Emploi, CAF, PAG, etc.)
— Private,
— Uninformed.
There are some reservations about the use of these data as:
— the cadastral plan is an administrative document used to identify and identify buildings with a view to establishing local tax bases. Its purpose is essentially fiscal and is not intended to guarantee a right to property. It therefore only describes a situation of apparent ownership. Only the mortgage real estate file that tracks the legal events of the property would be a reliable source but since it is not available in a digital format, any statistical exploitation is complex.
— cadastral documentation differs in accuracy across geographic areas. Although the cadastral sectors are regularly and rigorously updated (mainly coastal strip and urbanised areas), knowledge is only partial elsewhere. In fact, apart from the cadastral sectors, land properties may exist (parcels F) but these may not be identified with the domains department (about 1/3 out of 2,000 estimated titles) or may not be carried over because they are not subject to a georeferenced plan (1/2 of the estimated titles).
