THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A PHOTOGRAMMETRIC PROCEDURE FOR THE ADJUSTMENT OF THE OLD RASTER CADASTRAL PLANS

Abstract. Algeria faces challenges of globalization. It classifies the establishment of the national general urban and rural territory cadastre as top priority. The National Cadastre Agency has implemented a policy aimed at improving the quality and accuracy of the resulting documentation, in order to widen the scope of the latter in the various fields.

Since the launching of the first operations to establish the general cadastre of the national territory, the graphic cadastral documentation which was carried out based on aerial images (ortho-photographs or restitution plans) present mismatch either between the external borders or between the section plans that compose the communal (municipal) cadastral plane.

This article describes one of the simultaneous plane adjustment techniques inspired by the aero triangulation used in photogrammetry. In a first step, we built the photogrammetric unit where we consider the cadastral planes as photogrammetric models. In a second step, the constructed units will be used to form a superstructure covering a very large area like in the photogrammetric block case. Finally, this superstructure is adjusted, where the discrepancies are reduces relatively between these section plans using Tie Points (TP) and absolutely by relying on an optimal number of Ground Control Points (GCP) in the terrain system suitably distributed on the block.

This technique makes it possible to preserve the relationships between the data in a precise way and to guarantee the continuity in the acquisition of the data which can be added later. It also makes it possible to solve the problem of the overlap between the isolated section plans due to the non-optimal distribution, the insufficiency, or the absence of control points.

The evaluation results obtained after the experiments report that the proposed adjustment technique is efficient to solve such a problem.
