Purpose

The cadaster goes through its fifth wave of updating, seeking agility and efficiency in cadastral registration. However, despite recent advances in remote sensors and the low cost of remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS), on-site visits are still used to complete the cadastral form. Thus, this work aims to employ techniques and methodologies for remote characterization of buildings for cadastral updating purposes, reducing the need to enter the parcels.

Design/methodology/approach

The research tools used were: RPAS and MMS (mobile mapping systems), making a three-dimensional model with RPAS data, and analyzing the results from these platforms. With the 3D model, it was possible to extract measurements and characteristics.

Findings

The analysis of the 3D model with the aerial photographs obtained better results in the characterization of the buildings and is the most indicated according to the study. There were difficulties in identifying some features, such as windows frames, and it was proposed to analyze the photographs without processing, to mitigate these identifications. The cadaster form was successfully completed using a combination of the techniques in this study.

Originality/value

This study brings a first proposal for the characterization of parcels for cadastral purposes, by remote sensing techniques, reducing the entry in the parcels for filling cadastral forms, with the evaluation of the proposal in the Brazilian case.
