Abstract
An improvement in the forest planning information system is a necessary for local forestry management, especially future development of forest GIS. Moreover, there must be an examination of the availability of not just forest planning information, but also existing basic local information for forestry management. This paper focuses on cadastral information, which is a basic type of local landholding information. First, an investigation of the reliability of the parcel number recorded on forest register indicated that certain adjustments were needed in the parcel number recorded on the forest register in order to link forest register with cadastral information. Subsequently, a method of adjusting the parcel number using GIS was devised. These results were used to consider measures would enable cross use of forest GIS and cadastral information.
