How Cadastry Certifiers Work

The Cadastry Certifiers system is designed to ensure the accuracy and authenticity of metadata documents stored on the blockchain. Here's an overview of how the certification process works:

Certification Workflow

  1. Document Submission: Users store their metadata documents to the Cadastry.

  2. Certifier Assignment: User chooses official Certifier based on their industry expertise and tier approved by Cadastry with power to certify their document. Document modification is assigned to a Certifier.

  3. Document Review: The assigned Certifier reviews the document for accuracy, completeness, and authenticity.

  4. Certification Decision: If the document meets the required standards, the Certifier certifies it using their digital signature. If the document fails to meet the standards, the Certifier rejects it and provides feedback to the user.

  5. Certification Recording: The certification status of the document is recorded on the Cadastry blockchain, along with the Certifier's digital signature.

  6. Fee Distribution: The user pays a certification fee in $CD tokens, which is distributed among the Certifier and their upper-tier Certifiers according to the predefined fee structure.

  7. Dispute Resolution: In case of disputes or challenges to a document's certification status, higher-tier Certifiers are responsible for reviewing the case and making a final decision.

This workflow ensures that metadata documents are thoroughly vetted and certified by qualified professionals, providing a high level of trust and integrity to the Cadastry ecosystem.
