RCRC Launches Comprehensive Survey of Land and Building Usage in Riyadh

The Royal Commission for Riyadh City (RCRC) has launched a city-wide field survey to evaluate ‎land and building usage throughout Riyadh. Covering 5,960 square kilometers within the city’s ‎development protection boundaries, the initiative aims to survey and catalog the entire ‎inventory of land parcels and built-up assets. Detailed data points include plot area, land use ‎classification, structural typologies, building condition assessments, and key attributes such as ‎floor counts and usage profiles.‎

This initiative aligns with Riyadh’s rapidly expanding population and the accelerated urban and ‎economic development seen across all sectors. The RCRC remains committed to maintaining ‎and updating these insights through comprehensive land-use and building surveys, ensuring ‎its urban databases accurately reflect the city’s evolving conditions.‎

The resulting database will serve as a vital resource for urban planning, development projects, ‎academic research, and policy formulation. It will benefit the RCRC, other government bodies, ‎private-sector stakeholders, and researchers involved in shaping Riyadh’s future urban landscape.‎
