Land is a vital natural resource necessary for survival that includes soils, climate, water resources, plants, animals, and humans. Land administrators manage the social, legal, economic, and technical framework of land to ensure its long-term development and support individual and community ownership and use rights. Key terms are defined, including distinguishing between land, property, and air rights.
Chapter II discusses legal boundaries, which delineate landowner property. A fixed boundary has been accurately surveyed so boundary corners can be precisely replaced, while a general boundary allows determining ownership without precisely locating boundary lines, which can reduce short-term disputes but cause long-term issues due to uncertainty.

Land Administration and Management
Chapter I. Land and Land Administration
A. Land as resource The ultimate resource is land, which is both a physical commodity and an abstract concept. The land is a vital natural resource that is considered necessary for each and every one of us to survive. It refers to more than soils and the surface; it is about climate, water resources, plants, animals, and humans. Land operators and administrators manage the social, legal, economic, and technical framework of land to ensure its long-term development. Individuals or communities have ownership and use rights to land. It can be bought and sold and taxed, and this serves as the foundation for economic production. The role of land in the economy has great significance, securing land rights can result in sustainable development that can make long-term investments from foreign investors. Some key terms were defined, including air rights, land, and property. The right to use the space above the land is referred to as air rights. Real estate refers to land, while property refers to the buildings or structures that are attached to it. The guidelines defined land as all-embracing or all-encompassing and property as man- made structures.
Chapter II. The Legal Framework
E. Boundaries A boundary is a surface that delineates the location of the landowner's property. A legal boundary is an infinitesimally thin surface at both ends. In the registration system, boundaries are referred to as "fixed" or "general". Some define a fixed boundary as one that has been accurately surveyed so that any lost corner monument can be precisely replaced from the measurements, whereas others define it as a boundary corner point that becomes fixed in space when the agreement is reached at the time of land alienation. The benefit of having fixed boundaries is that it gives landowners confidence in their property limits because it is recognized by the system. In general boundaries, ownership of a plot of land can be determined without consulting the neighbors and agreeing on the precise location of the legal boundary lines. This reduces the number of disputes in the short term but may cause issues in the long run. Because general boundaries are sometimes uncertain, they can also be indefinite.
