Data Location

Comments

The Kadaster provides useful open data but unfortunately not on landownership. Even National and Subnational Governments pay for the service via contracts while the Kadaster is a Zelfstandig Bestuurs Orgaan (ZBO). This means that the organisation is providing national services for the national government (and is funded by the government) while it is not place under the responsibility of a Department/Minister. Effectively this is a good example where citizens pay one time via tax and a second time via the actual service. This hampers service delivery and transparency.
