Definition & calculation
Sum the area of land released through survey and clearance (cancellation, reduction and technical clearance) and formally handed over as safe during the reporting period.
Means of verification
Land release completion reports, clearance/quality assurance records, GIS mapping
Interpretation
Typical reporting frequency: Monthly or quarterly
Guidance & common pitfalls
Land release includes non-technical/technical survey and clearance, not only manual clearance; report only land that has passed quality assurance and been formally handed over.
