In recent decades, the state has been tasked with the effective management of natural resources, among which land resources hold particular importance due to the necessity of their rational use and sustainable development. The value of land resources and their indispensable role in ensuring the socio-economic development of the country is most clea...

Concerning the dependence of land taxation on the cadastral or market value of lands in developed and developing countries, the role of land resources in the system of socio-economic development is quite high.

The preservation of cultural heritage plays a key role in the development of society. To preserve cultural heritage, protection zones are established, which represent an encumbrance on land plots and, therefore, should be taken into account in the valuation process. Currently, there is a problem that mass (cadastral) and individual valuation method...

This article presents a substantiation of methods for assessing the impact of anthropogenic noise pollution for land taxation. Statistical analyses have been carried out in order to establish the dependence of the market value of land plots for residential development in St. Petersburg on noise pollution caused by transport infrastructure facilitie...

The subject of the study is the system of land relations in Russia, the imperfection of which gives rise to negative infrastructural externalities caused by the modernization and development of linear engineering infrastructure The objective of the work is to develop methods for state regulation of the external effects, the main one of which is int...

The authors describe a method for identifying methodological errors made in the process of determining the cadastral value using a spatial approach in order to increase the accuracy and objectivity of the results. An analysis and comparison of interpolation and clustering methods is also given, due to them the method of radial basis functions was s...

High computer-intensity and complexity of the mechanisms for recalculating the coefficients of pricing factors affect the process of calculating the cadastral value. To solve these problems, the study substantiates the use of polygonal metric grid method to determine the values of pricing factors of the cadastral value of land plots using St. Peter...

This article is devoted to the relevant topic of reducing the concentration of greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere. The relevance of the article is confirmed by the fact that within the framework of the Paris Agreement, a number of countries, including the Russian Federation, have undertaken obligations to implement measures entailing the ac...

The Russian economy has a pronounced resource specialization; in many regions, subsoil use is a backbone or one of the main areas of the economy. In these conditions, the improvement of the methodology for the economic evaluation of lands on which mining enterprises are located is of particular relevance. On the basis of the existing experience in...

Cadastral appraisers often use only those pricing factors that are mentioned in the National Standard of Cadastral Appraisal which leads to overestimation or underestimation of the cadastral value, therefore a shortage of budget funds and dissatisfaction among the citizens over the cadastral system of value for the taxation. This study aims to anal...

This article discusses the need to transform real estate valuation methods.

The article is devoted to the application of the territorial extrapolation of basic data method during a mass (cadastral) assessment of a territory that is characterized by an acute lack of market information. In the framework of the study, an acute lack is understood as the conditions when for the assessing territory there are less than five trans...

The work forms and substantiates the concept of land value, based on a new institutional theory. The infrastructural component of the cost of land in the presented concept determines, on the one hand, the efficiency of the use of natural resources, properties, demand for land on the market, on the other hand, the costs, which are determined not onl...

The article discusses cadastral land valuation in Russian resort towns, a procedure flawed by the fact that it does not take into account territorial prestige. Researchers in Russia and other countries state that it is essential to redistribute the land tax burden as the current situation creates tax injustice, which is reflected in the undervaluat...

This research dealt with the gender composition of postgraduate students and the reasons for pursuing a career in science. Statistics from Russia, Austria and the United Kingdom were analysed as these countries are among the leaders in engineering education. The analysis was at country, university and faculty level. To investigate the university le...

The paper proposes new methodological provisions for determining the cadastral value of garden and horticultural lands with water bodies zones. A method was developed for calculating the cadastral value differentiation coefficient, which takes into account the presence of a water protection zone on the land plot. A hypothesis was formulated about t...

Nowadays, the issue of land plot selection for linear facilities is relevant because of high land load rate world-wide. The given research into establishing a rationale for linear facilities location focuses on the determination of an optimum alternative. The method used is based on the expert analytic hierarchy process to improve the economic, tec...

Mass real-property appraisal by means of simplified market analysis is conducted for taxation in developed countries. And although this valuation for taxation in the form of state cadaster appraisal has emerged in Russia a long time ago, the system has actually evoked a wide response in society and the media.
