Resolution of 26 October 2015, joint of the Directorate General of the Registers and the Notary and the General Directorate of the Catastro, which regulates the technical requirements for the exchange of information between the Cadastre and the Property Records

The Royal Legislative Decree 1/2004, of 5 March, approving the recast text of the Law of the Land Registry was the subject of reform by the 18th final provision of Law 2/2011, of March 4, of Economy Sustainable, among whose objectives was to strengthen the collaboration that lend to the Catastro the notaries and registrars of the property.

With respect to the collaboration of the registrars of the property with the Catastro, the procedure of communication provided for in article 14 (a) and c) of the recast text of the Law of the Real Catastro has been extended to incorporate, together with the transfer of ownership, other types of alterations in the real estate, such as the acts of concentration, administrative, administrative, compulsory expropriation and planning and urban management acts which (a) to be subject to changes in the configuration of immovable property, as well as (a) the division, aggregation or grouping of the real estate, provided that it is a plane that allows the identification of these actions on the cadastral mapping and the cadastral reference of the buildings concerned. In this way, the registrars of the property are expected to provide a more complete information on these alterations, supplying the obligation of the holders to submit cadastral declarations. This reduces the administrative burdens that citizens support.

The supply of such information is regulated not only in Article 14, but also in Article 36.3 of the recast of the Law of the Land Registry, providing for the latter by Resolution of the Directorate General of the Catastro, prior to the favorable report of the Directorate General of the Registers and the Notary, the technical requirements are regulated in order to comply with the obligations of supply of said tax information, until now regulated by the Order of 23 June 1999 laying down the procedure for the implementation of the an obligation laid down in Law 13/1996 of 30 December on the provision of information to the General Directorate of the Catastro by the Notaries and Registrar of the Property.

On the other hand, Law 13/2015, of June 24, of reform of the Mortgage Law approved by Decree of 8 February 1946 and of the recast of the Law of the Land Registry, approved by Royal Legislative Decree 1/2004, of 5 March, with the objective of achieving the coordination between the Catastro and the Land Registry, previews that the real portfolio must incorporate the georeferenced graphic representation of the estate that completes its literary description whenever it is an estate is registered in the Land Registry, or when the operation of the land is registered; repair, parcelery concentration, segregation division, grouping or aggregation, compulsory expropriation or disconnection that determine a rearrangement of the land. It also provides that, in a potestative way, the graphic representation of the farms will be incorporated into the real portfolio at the time of formalizing any act that is inscribed or as a specific operation. To this end, the procedure for coordinating the description of the cadastral plots with the registered farms that refer to the same portion of the territory is regulated, in which the graphic representation to be registered in the Property registration will be contained in the descriptive and graphic cadastral certification or, in the legally anticipated assumptions, an alternative graphical representation. There is also a view to the existence of a system of mutual exchange of information between the Catastro and the Land Registry.

In order to make these provisions effective, Law 13/2015, of June 24, in the wording given to article 10.6 of the Mortgage Law and in the final provision third states that before 1 November 2015 a Joint resolution of the General Directorate of the Registers and the Notary and the General Directorate of the Catastro that regulates the form, content, deadlines and requirements of the exchange of information, the characteristics and functionalities of the system of information, as well as the service of identification and graphical representation of the farms on the cadastral mapping and the requirements to be met by the technical description and the alternative graphical representation that is provided to the Land Registry in the legally intended assumptions.

In addition, article 33.4 of the recast of the Law of the Land Registry provides that the General Directorate of the Catastro provides access to the registrars to the identification and graphical representation of the farms. Register on cadastral mapping, by means of an interoperable system that will respond to the specifications that are determined by the Resolution of the General Directorate of the Catastro.

In view of these provisions, which provide for various resolutions governing the referral and exchange of information between the Catastro and the registrars of the property, it is appropriate to unite in a single resolution elaborated and the content of these technical standards is endorsed by both Directorates-General, so that their regulation is clearer and more systematic and simpler to apply.

Finally, article 74.1 of Royal Decree 417/2006, of 7 April, for which the recast text of the Law of the Land Catastro is developed, approved by the Royal Legislative Decree 1/2004, of 5 March, provides that the The referral of the cadastral information and the management of the documentation must be carried out through the use of electronic, computer and telematic means that will guarantee its authenticity, integrity and, if necessary, confidentiality. To this end, it is anticipated that the information submissions will be made through the Electronic Headquarters of the General Directorate of the Catastro, using electronic signature systems.

(a) The geographical delimitation of the farms must be carried out by means of the expression of the georeferenced coordinates of the vertices of all their elements.

(b) It must be contained in the computer file, in the form of GML, provided for in the Annex to this resolution, the data of which shall correspond to the descriptive and surface area data of the resulting parcel or plots. registration is requested. The file shall be signed electronically, where appropriate, by the technician who has intervened in the preparation, and authenticated by electronic signature or by other means by the owner or competent authority as appropriate.

(c) It shall be represented on the cadastral mapping and respect the delimitation of the parent farm or the perimeter of the set of the farms provided that results from it, specifying the affected or unaffected parts, The whole of the resulting cadastral plots must respect the delimitation of the cadastral mapping.

Compliance with such requirements may be credited by providing a graphical representation subscribed by competent technician, or approved by the appropriate authority or obtained by digitisation on mapping cadastral, all in accordance with the requirements and characteristics contained in numbers 2, 3 and 4 of this paragraph.

2. Where a graphic representation is provided by competent technician, the geometric definition of the plots derived from the topographic work shall contain the date of completion, the data of the applicant, the methodology used, the data of the identification of the affected cadastral plots, the graphical representation of each of the resulting plots, represented on the cadastral mapping, the surface obtained and a list of coordinates of their vertices.

The technician who subscribes to the graphic representation must declare, under his or her responsibility, that the work has been executed in compliance with the technical specifications contained in this resolution, following the methodology specified, not to be incourted in any way that prevents or limits the legitimate exercise of its profession or legal incompatibility for its realization, as well as the fulfillment of the following technical requirements:

a) Methodology for elaboration. The graphical representation may be obtained by carrying out a topographical survey on the ground, detailing, among other issues, its technical characteristics and scale, or by another methodology which is considered more appropriate to the workbench.

b) The georereference system. The description of the plots must be georereferenced in all its elements. It will be used as a geodetic system of representation that of the cadastral cartography, which is the reference system ETRS89 (European Terrestral Reference System 1989) and in the case of the Canary Islands the system REGCAN95, using in both cases the Projection Universal Transverse of Mercator (UTM), in accordance with the provisions of Royal Decree 1071/2007, of 27 July, which regulates the geodetic system of official reference in Spain.

c) Topology. The graphical representation of the plots must have an enclosure type topology in which there are no auto intersections, being able to have enclosures inscribed on the farm (hollows, constructions or others). The various adjacent cartographic objects cannot overlap with each other or leave gaps. In the case of discontinuous farms, a graphical representation of each of the portions that compose it shall be carried out.

d) Representation on cadastral mapping. The topographical drawings of the resulting plots shall be represented on the cadastral mapping, in order to permit the verification of the correspondence between the parcels which are the subject of the actions and the description in the Real Estate Catstar.

The graphic representation will therefore comprise all the land parcels which must be altered or modified, in whole or in part, including not only the parcels corresponding to the farm which is the object of the registration, but also land parcels or public domain goods adjacent to them when they are affected, the parties concerned and not affected should be specified.

The cartographic alteration of the affected farms will have to respect the delimitation of the rest of the adjacent ones resulting from the cadastral mapping, so that the delimitation of the set of the resulting plots of the alteration or modification, coincides with the delimitation of the set of the plots extracted from the cadastral mapping, with a tolerance at its vertices of +/-1 cm.

If a topographical survey is carried out showing that the cadastral mapping presents a displacement or rotation, the resulting graphical representation must be supported in the existing cadastral mapping the relative distances. The technician shall record in his report the magnitude and direction of the observed displacement or rotation.

e) Metric accuracy. The graphic representation of the affected plots that propose modifications or rectifications of the delimitation of the existing plots in the cadastral mapping, must guarantee the precise metrics consistent with the methodology applied:

− When the graphical representation is derived from a topographic survey, the topographic survey must have an absolute precision such that the maximum error is less than 25 cm and that 85% of the points have a maximum error of 20 cm, any means used (classical topography or GNSS positioning techniques).

− When the graphical representation is performed by digitalization on the cadastral mapping, the geometric precision will be +/-0.20 m or +/-0.40 m, as represented by urban or rustic cadastral cartography. respectively.

3. Where the graphic representation has been approved by the competent authority in the case of a land concentration, transformation or urban balance, compulsory expropriation or administrative dispossession, it shall not be necessary for the alternative graphical representation is subscribed by a technician, but in any case must meet the requirements set out in points (b), (c) and (d) of the previous number.

4. When a graphical representation is provided that derives from the digitalization on the cadastral mapping, which must specify in its case the cartographic documentation of support used, the fulfilment of the requirements established in the 1 of this paragraph may be credited by contributing to the Catastro technical validation report provided for in the second paragraph number 4 of this resolution.

To this effect any interested person, provided that he is duly identified, will be able to use the services, which will be available in the Electronic Headquarters of the General Directorate of the Catastro, of unloading the geometry of the Cadastral plots and the technical validation of the parcels resulting from the modification carried out.

5. When the alternative graphical representation derived from a technical report is entered, showing the displacement or rotation of the cadastral mapping, it will be transmitted to the Catastro by the registrar along with the data of the registration. corresponding, in order to incorporate the metadata of the cadastral modification that is made.

Eighth. Constancy of coordination.

To register the geographical representation of the estate provided by the interested parties and to describe their graphic correspondence with the cadastral plot according to the criteria established in the Mortgage Law, the registrar must take into account the cadastral description in force at the time of the registration, to which end you will be able to consult in the Electronic Headquarters of the General Directorate of the Catastro the cadastral information available on the affected farms and obtain the the descriptive and graphic cadastral certification of the same, without the assessment of the lack of correspondence can be based exclusively on differences in the identity of the cadastral and registral holders of the adjoining farms.

In the descriptive and graphic certificates of the real estate issued by the General Directorate of the Catastro, it must be stated, when the property is or has been coordinated with the Registry of the Property, the date of the coordination, the code of the land registry with whose graphic representation it is coordinated, as well as, if necessary, information on the existence of alterations or modifications of the cadastral description that have been performed after coordination.

When coordination takes place between a registry and several land parcels corresponding to the perimeter of all of them, in the real portfolio and in the advertising register, this will be stated as well as the Cadastral references of the buildings and the graphic representation of each of the cadastral plots with which the farm corresponds. In the cadastral database and in the cadastral certifications that are issued for each of the buildings, it will be expressed that they are coordinated, along with others, with the registry estate expressing its code identifier.

Ninth. Graphic advertising register.

When dealing with registered farms with one or more cadastral plots, the advertising record of those plots will be the one that results from the geo-referencing of the cadastral mapping registered at the time of the coordination. To this end, the registrars, through the computer application regulated in article 9 of the Mortgage Law, will generate the corresponding graphical representation, without being able to use as advertising register the cadastral certification descriptive and graphic or any other cadastral graphic format that includes data from entitlements other than the registrals.

In cases where the law admits another graphical representation of an alternative, this one, once registered and incorporated into the real estate and the said computer application, may be the object of registration until such time as the registrar makes it clear that the farm has been graphically coordinated with the Catastro. Until then, the fact that the graphic representation by the Catastro has not been validated shall be recorded in this publicity, unless the positive technical validation report provided for in the second subparagraph of paragraph 4 of this Article has already been obtained. this resolution.

Additional disposition first. Resolution of electronic documents that are submitted for registration in the Land Registry.

In order to avoid material errors in the capture and processing of data for the purposes of registration, electronic documents that are presented in a telematic manner in the Property Records under the Mortgage Law shall be allow, in any case, the functions of selection and copying of its contents, and in particular of the cadastral references, sure codes of verification and the lists of coordinates that are found in the cadastral documents, as well as having regard to images a minimum resolution of 200 pixels per inch.

Additional provision second. Computer format of the building book.

In order to facilitate the consultation, processing, archiving and advertising of the book of the building, in accordance with Article 202 of the Mortgage Law, and its making available to the Catastro, as provided for in the present resolution, the aforementioned book of the building, with the content regulated in article 7 of Law 38/1999, of 5 November, of Ordination of the Building, must be submitted to the Registry of the Property, in computer support, in PDF format and authenticated by the sponsor with his electronic signature or by another feisty means.

Final disposition. Validity and effects.

This resolution shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the "Official State Gazette".

However, within six months of the publication of this resolution, the registrars of the property may continue to refer the information to the Real Estate Registry, acts or businesses by them registered as being the subject of communication in accordance with the Order of 23 June 1999, which regulates the procedure to comply with the obligation laid down in Law 13/1996 of 30 December 1999 on provision of information to the General Directorate of the Catastro by the Notaries and Registrar of the Property, expressly stating whether the information contained in it has been previously submitted in accordance with the new specifications contained in this resolution.

ANNEX

COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR EXCHANGING INFORMATION BETWEEN THE CADASTRE AND THE REGISTRARS

The technical specifications for the exchange of information between the Catastro and the Registry of the Property require the description of the protocol, services available and messages used, describing its characteristics techniques in this Annex.

The exchange of information will be carried out by telematic means, in a structured and standardised way, using web services implemented by both the General Directorate of the Catastro and the College of Registrar of the Property and Mercantile of Spain, provided by Web Service Description Language (WSDL) and based on XML (eXtensible Markup Language) messages whose structure and content is defined by the corresponding XML Schema.

The Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) communication protocol will be used, ensuring authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality through WS-Security (Web Services Security) security specifications. As a transmission mechanism optimized for sending binary data, MTOM (Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism) will be used.

The use of different services requires the use of request and response messages, XML messages defined in detail in their corresponding XML schemas. These schemes include, together with the identification of the movement, the description of the graphic and alphanumeric elements that identify and define the real estate, as well as the administrative information of the files involved.

The concrete details of implementation and the information formats for the information will be available in the Portal of the Catastro (www.minhap.es) and in the Electronic Headquarters of the General Directorate of the Catastro (www.sedecatastro.qob.es) and the Colegio de Registradores de la Propiedad y Mercantile de España (www.reqistradores .orq).

The main blocks of the request and response messages exchanged in the invocation of the different services provided by the General Directorate of the Catastro are described below.

Request message

The request message consists of four blocks:

-The control block includes information about the requesting organization and the particular user.

-The case block indicates the requested operation or action, the code of that operation assigned by the entity, and, if necessary, the corresponding administrative information.

-In case of query operations, the corresponding block identifies the elements on which information is required, which may be previously registered cadastral files or cadastre elements (real estate or farms).

-The input data block includes the specific information that will be validated or updated by invoking the respective validation or update services. The information may refer to cadastral files or cadastre elements.

-In the case of the exchange of cadastre elements, when in addition to the alphanumeric information the contribution of graphic information of plots is required, the files will be included with the graphical representation of the in the form of GML (Geography Markup Language) INSPIRE (Directive 2007 /2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 March 2007 establishing an infrastructure for spatial information in the European Community), or the identification, by means of its secure verification code (CSV), of an electronic document cadastral that includes the previously validated graphical descriptions.

Response Message

The response message is composed of four blocks:

-The case block returns, in case the operation is successful, the code of the assigned cadastral case.

-The result block returns the code that indicates whether the operation was successfully resolved.
