Data Searches
Land Holder Information
Companies and organisations that build facilities within an given area must consult with the landowners,
residents, and licensees. Those who build projects, for example, in the electricity grid,
water systems or new building projects must send out information to everyone who
have may be affected. But it is often difficult to collect this
the information. Transition Elements can perform data searches in the cartographic database
to collect and compile this information and send it to you as a map or
spreadsheet. This is both faster and less prone to errors than searching
manually. If you have a project that could benefit from this service,
please contact us. It is quick and easy to get a search done. Just send us a
polygon that covers your project.
Transition Elements can conduct those searches for a fraction of the cost of a manual compilation.
We have authorised access to the cadastral database and can retrieve information on the owners, their
contact address and the type of land occupancy, owner, shared owner or resident.
To access this service, send your polygon shapefile via email to:
The data can be provided as shapefiles, containing land plot polygons with the information attached as attributes.
They will load into GIS packages in the normal manner.
The search is conducted for a fee dependent on the area within a specified polygon.
Polygons can be, for example, mineral licence or land permit blocks, in which case the licence number information
can be returned as well, or a specfied polygon to cover individual programmes, such as surveys or research areas.
The database from which the information is drawn is maintained by Kartverket, a Norwegian government agency.
Transition Elements AS is registered to access this database.

The file must be in shapefile format in the ETRS89 UTM 31N- or UTM32N- co-ordinate system
The cost is 1000 kroner up to 2 square kilometerss, and 500 kroner per
square kilometer for larger searches. Very large searches can be negotiated on the number of search results.
