Registering property: Reliability of infrastructure index (0-8) (DB16-20 methodology)
The reliability of infrastructure index assesses whether the land registry and cadaster have adequate infrastructure to guarantee high standards and reduce the risk of errors. It has six components: (i) how land titles are kept at the registry of the largest business city of the economy; (ii) whether there is an electronic database for checking for encumbrances; (iii) how maps of land plots are kept at the mapping agency of the largest business city of the economy; (iv) whether there is a geographic information system—an electronic database for recording boundaries, checking plans and providing cadastral information; (v) how the land ownership registry and mapping agency are linked; and (vi) how immovable property is identified. The index is computed based on the methodology in the DB17-20 studies.
