This article explores innovative approaches to improving cadastral systems and utilizing Geographic Information System (GIS) tools for forest management. It emphasizes the importance of accurate and up-to-date cadastral records to support sustainable forest management, land ownership clarity, and environmental preservation. The study outlines methodologies for integrating cadastral updates with advanced GIS spatial analysis techniques, enabling the efficient mapping and monitoring of forested areas. Key applications include assessing land use changes, detecting illegal activities, and planning conservation efforts. The research highlights how GIS tools enhance spatial data visualization, offering insights into forest density, composition, and land-use dynamics. By analysing case studies from forested regions, the article demonstrates practical implementations and benefits, including improved decision-making for policymakers, forest managers and environmental stakeholders. The integration of cadastral updates and GIS-based analysis represents a significant step toward ensuring the sustainable management of forested areas, balancing ecological protection with economic and social considerations.
