LAW OF THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA

of December 27, 2001 No. 778-XV

About geodesy, cartography and geoinformatics

The Parliament adopts this organic law.

Chapter I General provisions

Article 1. Basic concepts

For the purposes of this law the following basic concepts are used in value:

geodesy - the science which is engaged in determination of form, the sizes and gravitational field of Earth which purpose is the image of the land surface on plans and maps with all existing forms of planimetry and leveling, and also with determination of exact provision of the fixed points on surface and their changes in time, taking into account influence of sphericity of Earth and atmospheric refraction in case of calculation of their provision;

cartography - the science which is engaged in studying of the cartographic projections used in case of the image of the land surface or some sites of this surface on the plan for the purpose of creation, the edition and replication of plans and cards;

fotogrammetriya - the science which is engaged in registration, measurement and the image of objects or phenomena in space and time by means of the images called by photograms;

the card - the partial or complete image of the land surface on the plane in specific scale and in specific cartographic projection;

the plan - the reduced image of the specific land surface in large scale on the plane without curvature of Earth;

the topographical plan - the conditional image of the specific site of the land surface on the plane in large scale containing elements of situation and relief;

geodetic and cartographic activities - the activities aimed at providing requirements of the state for land and cartographic information and products;

geodetic and cartographic works - works on creation and production of land and cartographic materials;

National fund of geospatial data - integral part of the State archive fund of the Republic of Moldova, created for the purpose of centralized accounting, storage and use of land, space and cartographic documents irrespective of their type, the place of creation and pattern of ownership which are and stored in the territory of the Republic of Moldova;

the state geographical information system (SGIS) - the information system consisting of the hardware, the software, methods of obtaining and processing of space data, used for collection, storage, extraction, mapping, the analysis and display of space data of the state and also for development of technical solutions for thematic geoportals;

geoinformatics - the science and technology concerning scientific reasons, designing, creation, operation and use of geographical data by development of geographical information technologies and the appendices GIS (geographical information system) for the practical and scientific purposes;

infrastructure of space data (SDI) - technology, policy, standards, processing, storage, distribution and effective use of space data;

geological and engineering researches for construction – the works which are carried out for the studying of environment of the area, the platform, the site, the sector, the territory, the route of projectible construction, local construction materials and sources of water supply and data acquisition necessary for reasons for decisions in case of designing and construction of facilities taking into account environmental protection and also for creation of the forecast of changes of the environment under the influence of construction and operation of constructions;

topographical researches – special surveys for designing, constructions, reconstruction, restoration and operation of objects;
