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;

the engineering and topographical plan – the special topographical plan developed on the basis of topographical researches with reproduction of elements of situation, relief, the existing constructions, underground and land including monuments, ensembles and landscapes of cultural and historical and archaeological value, monuments built in public places, in complex with the distinctive marks and specifications necessary for designing, constructions, reconstruction, restoration and operation of objects;

executive survey – the special survey which is carried out for the purpose of: determinations of accuracy of application on the area of the planimetric extent of construction, reconstruction, restoration; determinations of coordinates and real contours of the executed objects, the sizes of separate parts of object, distances between wells of the engineering networks and other digital data necessary for creation of executive master plans, technical data sheet of object and registration in accordance with the established procedure objects of technical infrastructure in the functional town-planning inventory and the Register of objects of technical infrastructure;

the executive topographical plan – the topographical plan implemented on the basis of executive survey for any type of construction, reconstruction, restoration and arrangement, which is part of documentation submitted without fail by the construction organization in case of acceptance to operation of the constructed object;

system of coordinates MOLDREF 99 – single system of coordinates of the Republic of Moldova for all types of geodetic, cartographic, cadastral and route-making works;

objects of technical infrastructure – underground and land networks of supply with drinking and technical water, sewer, thermal, electric utility services, telephone etc., ways of movement of vehicles, land structures for placement of electrical units, the pumping and compressor stations, other structures and installations which are part of engineering equipment of public or general interest, and also network of the real estate unit or networks, adjacent to it;

the plan of object of technical infrastructure – the graphical representation of object of technical infrastructure developed on the basis of executive survey or topographical researches, containing data on the location of object, its components, and also identification number of object;

the land and cartographic certificate - the allowing document issued by the Commission on certification of specialists in the field of geodesy, cartography, topographical researches and geoinformatics (further - the Commission on certification);

topography - the science which is engaged in measurement, registration, the description and the detailed image of rather small areas of the earth without taking note of sphericity of Earth and atmospheric refraction, for the purpose of creation of cards, topographical plans and three-dimensional models of the area;

remote sensing - the technical area which is engaged in detection, measurement, registration and visualization in the form of images of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by objects and the phenomena on Earth or in the Universe at distance without direct contact with them;

the digital card and/or the digital plan - set of the digital geospatial data representing on the scale of 1:1 characteristic elements of certain space;

laser scanning (Lidar) - method of receipt of space data from the environment by means of the laser sensor radiating light impulses for detection of objects and measurement of distance to them on the basis of time which is required for light reflection back on the sensor.
