National Academic Research and Collaborations Information System (NARCIS) is the main Dutch national portal for those looking for information about researchers and their work. NARCIS aggregates data from around 30 institutional repositories. Besides researchers, NARCIS is also used by students, journalists and people working in educational and government institutions as well as the business sector.

 

NARCIS provides access to scientific information, including (open access) publications from the repositories of all the Dutch universities, KNAW, NWO and a number of research institutes, datasets from some data archives as well as descriptions of research projects, researchers and research institutes.

 

This means that NARCIS cannot be used as an entry point to access complete overviews of publications of researchers (yet). However, there are more institutions that make all their scientific publications accessible via NARCIS. By doing so, it will become possible to create much more complete publication lists of researchers.

 

In 2004, the development of NARCIS started as a cooperation project of KNAW Research Information, NWO, VSNU and METIS, as part of the development of services within the DARE programme of SURFfoundation. This project resulted in the NARCIS portal, in which the DAREnet service was incorporated in January 2007. NARCIS has been part of DANS since 2011.

 

DANS - Data Archiving and Networked Services - is the Netherlands Institute for permanent access to digital research resources. DANS encourages researchers to make their digital research data and related outputs Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable.

Unmanned Aerial System Imagery, Land Data and User Needs: A Socio-Technical Assessment in Rwanda

Journal Articles & Books
апреля, 2019

Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) are emerging as a tool for alternative land tenure data acquisition. Even though UAS appear to represent a promising technology, it remains unclear to what extent they match the needs of communities and governments in the land sector. This paper responds to this question by undertaking a socio-technical study in Rwanda, aiming to determine the match between stakeholders' needs and the characteristics of the UAS data acquisition workflow and its final products as valuable spatial data for land administration and spatial planning.

Future governance options for large-scale land acquisition in Cambodia: Impacts on tree cover and tiger landscapes

Journal Articles & Books
апреля, 2019
Cambodia

This paper investigates how large-scale land acquisitions (LSLAs) can be governed to avoid underuse and thereby spare room for other land claims, specifically nature conservation. LSLA underuse occurs when land in LSLAs is not converted to its intended use. Taking Cambodia as a case, we map converted and unconverted areas within LSLAs using remote sensing. We develop three scenarios of alternative LSLA policies until 2040, and use a land system change model to evaluate how governing the underuse of LSLAs affects overall land use.

Taking the Data Revolution to the Next Level: Effective and Inclusive Methods of Communicating Spatial Data

Conference Papers & Reports
апреля, 2019

With the development of the post-2015 agenda, the UN High Level Panel expressed a need for a ‘data revolution’ to enable the transformative action necessary to respond to the demands of an incredibly complex development agenda. Data collection, analytics and monitoring have been hot topics of discussion within the land community as well. New technologies are developed continuously to allow actors to capture and analyze data at a greater speed and in higher volumes than has been possible before.

Modeling The Complex Land Administration in Brazil

Conference Papers & Reports
апреля, 2019
Brazil

Land administration is one of the pillars of economic development and poverty reduction. Land registration and cadastres make up an important part of land administration. In Brazil, recent initiatives attempt to build an efficient land administration to overcome its deficiencies built from a history of disorderly occupation and with many specificities of a colonial past. The objective of this paper is to present the land registration process in urban areas in Brazil using modeling of land administration.

Networks of academic and higher education institutions are proven platforms for knowledge sharing and experiences in education exchange. During the International Workshop LALA LADM+, 5-9 November 2018 in Quito Ecuador, organized by Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE (ESPE University) Ecuador and Kadaster International together with Faculty ITC University of Twente from the Netherlands, Latin America Land Administration Network - LALAN was established. Representatives from seven countries from Latin American continent, Spain and the Netherlands were present at the workshop.
