Organization

Geodetic Institute

The Geodetic institute is the national authority for geodesy, determining the geodetic reference frame and other geodetic products such as the geoid and height reference. The institute operates a service for accurate GNSS-positioning.

Mapping and Cadastre

The Mapping and Cadastre establish and manage spatial data covering Norwegian land areas, in cooperation with municipalities and different public agencies. The division produce national map data series in different scales and the national printed map series Norway 1:50 000. Mapping and Cadastre operate The National Place Name Register and The New Cadastre (matrikkelen) with physical and ownership information including digital cadastre maps about properties.

Land Registry

The Land Registry is responsible for and manages The National Land Registry, which includes a registry of leasing rights to flats in housing co-operatives.

Hydrographic Service

The Hydrographic Service is responsible for surveying the Norwegian coast, including polar waters and for preparing and updating nautical charts and descriptions of these waters. The activities also include studies of tides and currents and publishing tide tables. The Hydrographic Service has the operational responsibility for the international electronic navigational chart centre Primar, based in Stavanger.
