The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) institute a comprehensive jurisdictional regime where Malaysia can claim, manage and utilize its maritime territories.

This is due to the issue on boundary description in marine area that is vague, inaccurate, or incorrectly represented on a map. Therefore the law and regulations for a marine area are not effective. The objective of this paper is develop the marine cadastre definition and marine cadastre model conceptual from Malaysian perspective using Langkawi Island as a case study.

Finally, this result is establish the marine cadastre definition and conceptual model where consist of main entities and attribute for support the it's implementation. As the conclusion , this marine cadastre model it is hoped will be can be used for marine spatial administration in Malaysia. |
