Hellenic Cadastre moves to G-Cloud in major digital Transformation milestone

The migration encompasses all applications, databases, and critical information systems of the Hellenic Cadastre, which until now had operated across multiple technological environments. As a result, all of the organisation’s digital services and operations are now hosted within the Greek Government Cloud (G-Cloud), managed by the General Secretariat for Information Systems and Digital Governance.

With the completion of the project, the Hellenic Cadastre joins the ranks of the first major public-sector organisations in Greece to fully migrate their operations to the Government Cloud, consolidating systems and data that had been developed over different periods and across diverse technology platforms.

Critical Digital Infrastructure for the Economy and Real Estate Market

The Hellenic Cadastre represents a cornerstone of the country’s digital public infrastructure, managing data related to property ownership, real estate transactions, investments, spatial planning, and a broad range of administrative processes.

The migration to the Government Cloud means that all of these services and datasets now operate within a unified and modern infrastructure designed to provide enhanced reliability, scalability, and cybersecurity.

At the same time, the integration of previously fragmented technology systems creates the foundation for more efficient maintenance, improved resource management, and the accelerated deployment of new digital services.

Benefits for Citizens and Professionals

The new infrastructure is expected to significantly enhance the user experience of the Cadastre’s digital services, which are used daily by thousands of citizens and professionals.

Lawyers, notaries, engineers, investors, and property owners rely on the organisation’s digital platforms to complete property transfers, conduct title searches, obtain certificates, and carry out a wide range of administrative procedures related to real estate assets.

According to the project’s implementation plan, operating the systems within the G-Cloud environment is expected to improve response times, increase service availability, and reduce risks associated with technical failures or unexpected service disruptions.

In parallel, the migration strengthens the protection of data relating to millions of property rights held by individuals and legal entities across the country.

Supporting the Final Phase of the National Cadastre

The completion of the migration comes at a pivotal stage for the Hellenic Cadastre, as the nationwide cadastral mapping programme enters its final phase.

The new digital infrastructure is expected to serve as a key enabler of the government’s objective to complete the National Cadastre by the end of 2026, while also accelerating the broader digital transformation of property-related services.

Immediate priorities include reducing backlogs through the use of advanced digital tools, improving service delivery for users, and integrating special cadastral regimes—such as the Dodecanese Cadastre—into the unified national system.

Dermentzopoulos: A Stronger Technological Foundation for a Critical National Infrastructure

Deputy Minister for Digital Governance and Artificial Intelligence Christos Dermentzopoulos described the migration of the Hellenic Cadastre to the Government Cloud as a significant milestone in enhancing both data security and the reliability of digital public services.

As he noted, the new architecture strengthens the resilience of the organisation’s information systems and creates the conditions for the development of more modern and efficient services for citizens and professionals alike, while further supporting the broader digital transformation of the Greek public administration.
