Surveying conversions, new construction and the like

How does it work?

These are the municipal Basic Registration of Addresses and Buildings (BAG) and the Basic Registration of Large Scale Topography (BGT).

The BAG is a register of data on buildings and addresses. The BGT is a detailed Map on which buildings, roads, water and greenery are recorded. Municipal address data and Maps must be kept current.

It does not matter whether it is a construction or renovation project for which you need a permit or not. How and when this modified data is recorded is also regulated by the legislature. This makes it possible for all municipalities to register in the same way and have the data recorded in a national facility. Citizens and companies have access to (part of) this data, for example through Public Services on the Map (http://www.pdok.nl/).

One of the regulations is that the municipality must draw up the new situation in Maps with national coverage. The surveying and mapping is done for our municipality by our own surveyor or by Het Gegevenshuis, where all knowledge and equipment is pooled. Het Gegevenshuis is a collaboration of ten municipalities in the region and the Limburg Water Board.

The municipal surveyor or the surveyors of Het Gegevenshuis may need to take measurements on or from your plot in order to carry out the legal duties of our municipality. Please cooperate by allowing the surveyors as much free access to your property as possible. Thank you in advance. Of course, these surveyors can always identify themselves.
