The cadastral map is a key component of the national cadastre. It illustrates all property boundaries and ownership data from across Denmark. It also provides information about protected forests, coastal erostion areas and cliff protection. The cadastral map is a digital legal document. It is intended to present the cadastral register in visual form, such that individual parcels can be identified along with their attribute data (cadastral number, road access, etc.). The cadastral map is also used to determine precisely where property boundaries exist in the landscape, especially when 'actual' boundaries do not match the official 'paper' property boundaries exactly.

Owners of real estate, real estate agents, lawyers, land surveyors, public authorities and others need to know if a forest is preservation. This is an important information, because areas must be driven by the forestry rules on sustainable operation. A forest that is required for preservation must consist of trees that either form or are growing up to the forest of tall trees. Mosses, herds, meadows and the like, which naturally belong to a peace forest, must be preserved as they are, regardless of size. The preservation obligation follows the property. This means that a new owner always takes over the peace forest duty upon purchase of the property. Preservation duty is preceded by other rights, and does not lapse if the property is on a forced sale.
