- Abstract
- This polygon shapefile represents areas containing a concentration of buildings and other structures in South Africa. The bulk of the data, for this layer, was captured from the South African Provincial Map Series (2nd edition 2001), i.e. LIMPOPO 1:700 000, NOTHERN CAPE 1:1 200 000,KWAZULU - NATAL 1:700 000, WESTERN CAPE 1:800 000, EASTERN CAPE 1:800 000, MPUMALANGA 1:600 000, NORTH WEST 1:700 000, FREE STATE 1:700 000,GAUTENG 1:300 000
- Purpose
- Global Map data were developed under the cooperation of National Geospatial Information Authorities (NGIAs) of respective countries and regions.
- Supplemental Information
- Global Map data of National/Regional version were developed with consistent specifications by NGIAs of respective countries and regions for fundamental geospatial information of their respective coverage by using geospatial information owned by them, and they were provided. The data have been authorized by NGIAs of respective countries and regions. Therefore, the contents of respective data are based on the views of respective data developers. For some countries and regions, there may be parts where data have not been developed. National/Regional version of Global Map data was to be updated in about five-year cycle on the basis of resolutions of an ISCGM meeting. To know about the year data were updated and about data developers, please refer to metadata attached to each data. Depending on the period the data were prepared, they were developed in line with two different specifications, namely, version 1 in VPF and BIL formats, and version 2 in GML and BIL formats.
