In this study, sample sites are chosen where digitalized cadastral maps are available, and boundaries of forestry, farming lands, and residence are clearly distinguishable. Digital orthophotos, produced from aerial photographs, are overlaid with digitalized cadastral maps to grope for applications of digital orthophoto in cadastre. The conclusions and applicable fields of this study are as follows. The first. digital orthophoto is applicable to solve problems such as discordance and duplication of boundary produced in the process of digitizing cadastral maps. The second, using digital orthophoto, it is possible to extract regions where a trouble of ownership would exist and so the necessity of cadastral resurveying can be brought. The third, by overlaying digital orthophoto and cadastral map, it can be used effectively for the present situation maintenance of buildings. The fourth, because it is possible to examine current land use of each lot, digital orthophoto may contribute to decide the validity of land category on cadastral map.
