Details

Jersey has a land register, but not in the form of a cadastre.

A GIS layer is used to link land parcels to the court registry records (scanned document images in PDF format) which detail property transactions registered before the Royal Court.

Members of the public can request information about land ownership from the court registry.

Each land polygon has a pointer to relevant record in the court registry document management system ('PRIDE').

Access to both the GIS system and the PRIDE system would be required to identify the ownership and size of a parcel of land.
