Towards an obligation of result on the control of urbanization dynamics
Quantifying spatial dynamics: the limits of dedicated sources

Cadastre and land policy: above all… precautions for use
With objectives and motivations that may have varied depending on the era, mastering spatial dynamics is a concern and a constant in public action. If, for the past forty years, urban sprawl has largely dominated the debates, the acceleration of the phenomenon, in parallel with the growing pressure of the associated environmental and societal issues (preservation of biodiversity, local and sustainable food supply, etc. ), led the public authorities to approach land issues in new terms (Boisson, 2005). In particular, today it pushes for the introduction in legal texts of an obligation of result in order to achieve the principle of “thrifty management of space”, where previously only an obligation of means prevailed. Correlatively, this requires detailed and regular monitoring of spatial dynamics and in fact raises the question of the data on which to rely. However, if the sources containing information s…
