Auditing the quality of the Key Register Topography in the NetherlandsIn the Netherlands there are several key registers of which a compulsory use for governmental tasks is determined by law. As it is of high importance that the quality of these key registers is fit for use, it is regulated by law that they have to be audited once every while by an independent party. In this presentation Richard Witmer from the Dutch Cadastre and Maarten Storm from Alterra, Wageningen UR tell about the auditing of the Key Register Topography. They will discuss the method and the results of the audit and the actions taken to improve the quality of this open data.
