Luxembourg LPIS
Short Description
Luxembourg's Land Parcel Identification System (LPIS) is managed by
The Administration of Technical Agricultural Services (ASTA). The data is made available to the public on
The Luxembourg Data Platform based on the Creative Commons 1.0 Universal (CC0 1.0) Public Domain Dedication. In addition, it is possible to query parcels’ information on the
Geoportal under the 'Agriculture' theme.The plot-based parcel reference system (FLIK) in Luxembourg was digitally recorded for the first time in 2005 based on aerial photos. Since then, the system has been continuously revised via the latest aerial images.Onsite measurements using GPS are carried out for unclear boundaries cases as well an assessment of the parcels’ eligibility for payment.The FLIK parcels are categorized into eligible agricultural parcels, eligible vineyard parcels, ineligible parcels, and non-payable objects. The data has been uploaded to geoDB and is available from 2016 to 2021 annually with updates expected annually.
