I am interested in using the Land Administration Domain Model to develop an integrated Land Information Management System. Before we embark on the implementation of our solution around LADM, I want to put feelers out to know if any researcher has already done it using open source approaches (or based on Cadaster 2014 or perhaps using the Social Tenure Domain Model). I know it can be done but rather than reinvent the wheel, I'd be glad to be given a link to such an implementation that we can then proceed to customize.
Dear David,
Being a Domain Model, there are already a few prototype implementations in several countries, some will be soon oficial (expectedly) like in Cyprus or in Cabo Verde. Each country usually elaborates on the domain model to create an implementation which is specific for the legal / cadastral and administration situation in the country.
If you want to start working in a solution for your country, based on open source, then I strongly recommend the LADM implementation from FAO's named SOLA. Is an Entity-Relationship model, and it is implemented in PostgreSQL. You can find more (and the most recent updates) at www.flossola.org

For the specific case of Ecuador, it's being developed a distrubuted sistem called SINAT (Rural Land System Administration). It is a distributed system, developed on Java Platform, Kosmo gis, PosthgreSQL/PostGIS. It's not Open Source. The project was developed by IGN, FIT (both from France) and SAIG (from Spain).
In my opinion, every country or region has its own practices in land administration, and culture of people and laws are the most important issues in land administration. . .
There are number of agencies where you can have some access to open source...World Bank, FIG, Land Equity International, FAO, etc.
