RGG — representação gráfica georreferenciada, a map of a plot's boundaries with coordinates

The outline of your plot, drawn on the BUPi map and tied to coordinates. It is submitted by the owner or their representative and checked by an authorised technician, who has 20 working days to do so; you are then given the same time for any corrections. Since 22 September 2026 the RGG has been the compulsory first step: without it, no special registration of the plot, justificação or merger of neighbouring plots can be started.

Where you come across it. Registering a plot through BUPi, boundaries overlapping with a neighbour's, preparing land for sale or building.
If the outline overlaps a neighbour's, the RGG is approved "with a geometry reservation" — followed by either reconciliation (conciliação) or a julgado de paz, arbitration or the courts.
