One of the market problems is the variety of land destination in urbanized territories and suburban areas. The main reason is insufficient detail planning of these territories and cadastral measurement of land plots. In addition, it would be necessary to inventory land plots again and renew cartographic material-that would speed up land plot formation process. One probable solution is the participation of clearly outlined state and private capital in the processes mentioned abobe. 2, record 5, English, - general%20land%20destination
