Abstract
Land administration systems involve many complex processes in order to properly manage rights over land, estimate its value, gather related revenues and regulate its use. Reaching those goals generally relies on land registration and cadastre subsystems with many different variants observed across countries. Although elaborated domain models are available and are good at capturing the domain structure, they leave the design rationales quite implicit. This limits the understanding and reasoning capabilities on the systems, e.g. when some process do not correctly reach its goals. This paper proposes a way to extend such domain models with a goal dimension in order to provide a better guidance in the design of new systems and a better understanding of existing systems. Our approach is based on goal-oriented analysis techniques extended with specific spatio-temporal notations, patterns and decomposition rules.
